We cannot allow our party to be hijacked by those who are so blinded by their hatred of George Bush that they cannot see the path to a Democratic victory," said Al From, the group's founder.


THAT is an RNC talking point.

It reminds me of this quote: It's no measure of health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society. -- Krishnamurti

It's no measure of political viabiity OR SANITY to refuse to identify, name and thoroughly denounce political opponents who are out to destroy an entire nation and its people, whether that destruction is intentional or not (and I personally think it is).

The people who support George Bush will NEVER wake up if there's no one telling them the truth. That is what is so profoundly, desperately needed in our nation today: the truth.

And why do we hate George Bush&Co. anyway? Just because? Or because he's in the White House and our guy isn't? Hell no. Our contempt was born of daily atrocities leveled against the nation, its institutions, laws and people AND the world itself. Our hatred is exactly equivalent to NOT being "well-adjusted" to a profoundly sick administration.
