and sestak's a stronger candidate in november. i'm not predicting a slam dunk win because i don't own the same crystal ball joey has but i thought the senate primary was another positive for the dems in a swing state.

and there are plenty of anti-abortion, pro-gun dems, chuck. even anti-healthcare bill ones.

you're the party of strict ideological discipline. no one runs around yelling "dino" other than scuds.

Defeatism? Debatable.

The other part, however, was good for a huge lol here. Thanks, Chuck, I needed it on a busy day. The word Republican is essentially a synonym for intellectual dishonesty any way you cut it...you guys basically invented the term through habitual practice of it.

The Dems are just as bad. if you think otherwise remove the blinders.

Politican = intellectual dishonesty. doesnt matter the party.

Being a self-serving, likely lying sack of rocks doesn't necessarily make one intellectually dishonest....just dishonest. Different ballgames with different meanings that one party is absolutely EXCELLENT at while the other barely even knows how to get its feet wet.

Funny that you call the right liars yet we all know where the right stands on virtually every issue. The left? What ever way the wind blows... (or polls say)

Chicago republicans are not republicans

at any rate can you give me a specific example of a conservative being dishonest. Being accused of a crime is not equal to being guilty of one.

nah. conservatives are never dishonest. if they are, you just dismiss them from the fraternity so they're not real conservatives anymore.

do you folks ever stop and listen to yourselves?

Just shrug and say, "they're all the same"?

No - I say dump the RINO and get someone else.

2 incredibly blatant examples of Dems being intellectually dishonest:

When running for President in 2008, Obama said he was for the passage of the Armenian Genocide Resolution...LIAR

When running for President in 2008, Hillary said she was for the passage of the Armenian Genocide Resolution... LIAR


In 2010, they both turned rats, and begged Congress not to pass the Armenian Genocide Resolution... THREW ARMENIANS UNDER THE BUS

The reason given was that they thought it would hurt the negotiations going on to re-open the border between Turkey and Armenia. This is the biggest load of brown waste they could of served up. Believe me, they were INTELLECTUALLY DISHONEST, because all involved knew that Turkey won't open the border until Armenia leaves the Nagorno-Karabakh area of Azerbaijan. Turkey has promised this, and Armenia won't leave on it's own. As you will now note, the talks are going nowhere, and they will continue that way.

it's kind of hard to be intellectually dishonest when we argue amongst ourselves almost as much as we argue with republicans.

if you're uncomfortable with a broad spectrum of opinion's that differ from your own, the current incarnation of the republican party's for you. the abandonment of the center is almost complete.

it's a little harder being a democrat as you have to deal with the discomfort of being an actual center-left party with all the messy arguments that entails.

I thought is was hard to be a democrat because they are wrong about most things?
