Look: objectively, neither of us believes the other
is quite honest.
I see no reason for anyone of intellect to remain a Democrat. None. Why, do you suppose, might I come down to that? Would it be the Dem's penchant for economic illiteracy? Would it be their inability to win any war against totalitarians and undemocracies, which are the one sort of war we fight -- and have fought for over one hundred years? (1898, and still counting -- we shed blood for the greater liberty over the lesser liberty, every time) Would it be their socialist-leaning policies, always trending to develop a dependent class of Americans rather than Americans of the free, adult variety? Damned insidious, I must say -- and no longer veiled. Would it be their habit of policy support for dictatorships of policy inimical to the United States and humanity's interest worldwide, viz., Senator Kerry and the Sandinistas? Let these few examples stand for many blemishes upon the Dems' record. They are permanent black marks.
In furtherance of this, I should really go bother a Democrat I know, who is bright. But I haven't seen him since months before the Health Care Intrusion And Just-About Poll Tax, and I'd like to find out how he feels now that his team has done something like this.
