Democrats ~~Whine, Stamp Their Feet~~ Demand Bush Halt Attacks on Reid

2005-02-11

Senate Democrats demanded Thursday that President Bush order a halt to personal attacks on the party's leader, Sen. Harry Reid, and expressed regret that they had failed to mount a stronger defense for his defeated predecessor. ``This is a new Democratic Party,'' Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said at a news conference called to release a letter telling Bush to muzzle his ``political operatives.''
Schumer, D-Partisan Hate, went on to say...
``It says to the president, `You will not intimidate us','' said Schumer, who likened the attacks on Reid to political knee-cappings.
no nazi analogys? Geez, you guys are slipping

Po' widdle democwats. Who knew they were so sensitive?

The letter itself was written in milder terms. ``We urge you to keep your word about being a uniter and publicly halt these counterproductive attacks so that we are able to work together in a bipartisan manner and debate issues on the merits,'' it says. Bush and the White House have denied responsibility for the attacks. But Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate after Reid, ridiculed that assertion, as Reid did earlier in the week. ``This is the Abu Ghraib defense, that a few renegade soldiers are responsible for their own behavior and the commanders are not accountable,'' said Durbin.
All Abu-Grahib, all the time....

#13 ...Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate...

That says everything that needs to be said about how pathetic the Democratic Party has become. I wouldn't let Dummy Dick park my car!

#11 the dem's are in such a complete and total meltdown that it's like watching a nervous breakdown.
hahaha at first,
then that momentary horror as you realize they really are pathetic
then you feel bad for witnessing their embarrassment and you feel compelled to turn your eyes to spare them the shame...but you can't.

#4 ``This is the Abu Ghraib defense, that a few renegade soldiers are responsible for their own behavior and the commanders are not accountable,ââ said Durbin.

You think some Democrats stay up all night thinking about Abu Ghraib?

I wonder if they imagine themselves as the top or the bottom, as it were.

#3 "Stop calling me names, you filthy, homophobic, racist, idiotic, Hitlerite puppet of the Zionist entity! There is no room in American political discourse for the sort of exaggeration, name-calling, and ad hominem insults you hypocritical, imperialist, mouth-breathing Rethugluican Christers engage in every minute of every day -- and if you didn't have an extra chromosome, you might be smart enough to know that!"

#1 Reid, who did not attend the news conference, said twice this week that Bush could not credibly claim he wasnât behind attacks circulated by a party apparatus under his control.

Sounds like paranoia to me.
