I am sure many readers of this blog have already seen this marvelous letter, written by Marsha Pappas, head of NOW NYS. It arrived in my email today, coinciding with the first day I had the chance to wear the wonderful shirt given to me by two generous…

Blatant steal from Maryland Puma’s lovely post last night.
“For all PUMAs, it has been a week of excitement, anticipation, disappointment, anger, tears, frustration, surprise and uncertainty.  We all need time to evaluate our positions on a very personal level, but let us not forget that it is Democracy we are fighting for.

Ed O’Reilly, running against John Kerry for the Democratic spot on the November ballot, is my pick for loyal Democrat of the Day. Ed gets it: loyalty to party does not mean blindly following commands from on high. Loyalty to the Democratic Party means …

I am ticked off this morning. Senator Kerry was on George Stephanapolous today and said “Senator Clinton’s supporters are not going to vote for Sarah Palin, just because he is a woman. They are not that stupid.”
Well, I do want to vote for Sarah Palin because she is a woman! And, that is the MAJOR [...]

Saturday Blogroll Roundup
At Alegre’s Corner, campskunk says that the Palin pick has panicked the Obama Movmt trolls. Very true, judging by the inhabitants of our dungeon here. 
Anglachel makes it clear where she stands, pretty much.
At Canonfire, Gary Kamiya pokes a hole in the Obama Movement’s hope bubble that Pumas don’t exist.
Chicago Dyke at CorrenteWire explains [...]

Watch here.

Thank you, Sarah Palin, for picking up the gauntlet that Hillary was forced to leave behind!

As I have repeatedly said, I do not think vice-presidential picks make the difference in presidential elections. One thing does make this year different. This year the sexism and misogyny that seems embedded in the current crop of Democratic Party offi…

Yes — the DNC is most definitely in Panic Mode.
The Palin Choice is turning into a stunner for Howard and Obama.
Let’s not panic here. There isnt any need for it. We are thinking, articulate adults.
I dont care if you call yourself a Democrat, a Republican, an Independent, a New Democrat, or a Polka-Dotted Peruvian Panda.

The convention has been something of a strange time for us rank and file Democrats. But it is now behind us and for those of us seeking ways to make the Democratic Party everything it should be, for itself and for America, here are steps I suggest (and…

Goodbye Howard Dean. Goodbye Barack Obama. Goodbye Nancy Pelosi. Goodbye Donna Brazile. You have not only lost the White House for the Democratic Party. Today you have brought the Democratic Party to the brink of irrelevancy altogether. John McCain has played you all like a piano.
Today we say GOODBYE to the OLD Democratic Party. The [...]

Let’s discuss.

Many people misunderstand the concepts of commitment and loyalty. Many more misunderstand the idea that reasonable people of good faith can disagree about what constitutes commitment and loyalty.These misunderstandings are making it very difficult righ…
