The Democratic party is fast marginalizing itself. I didn’t see this coming at all.

My fear was always that because of our conservative standards of personal responsibility, morals, limited government, etc., that we might marginalize our own party as more and more people in America jumped on the victimhood express.

Turns out most of us are like the rest of us. No matter how much they bleat, we know a hurricane is a natural disaster and the Evil Dr. Bush didn’t make it in his underground lab. The National Guard wasn’t sent to shoot black people in New Orleans even if a crotch grabbing rapper says otherwise on national TV. We feel sorry for Cindy Sheehan loosing her son, but we got her number pretty quickly, now we feel sorry for the rest of her family including her brave son. We know most of those folks in New Orleans could have left before the storm. We know looting from feeding your family. They will trot out Jackson, Sharpton, Pelosi and Hillary but the facts are still the facts.

In their fervor to get the liberal message out, the major broadcast tv news outlets have shown their hands. They are willing to fabricate, obfuscate and outright lie to uphold the liberal theology - all of America knows it now and we’ve all found other ways to get our news or check their “facts”.

There is, and I guess always will be, that 10% that “don’t know” or “aren’t sure” or “who is Ted Kennedy anyway?”, but that dependable 30% to 40% that would reliably answer poll questions according to the Democratic party planks is dwindling. After more than a week of trying to blame Bush for Katrina, still only 13% buy it in the latest poll.

Americans know what partial birth abortion is, they don’t think homosexuals should have special rights, they are NOT going to pay repairations, and they don’t beieve Al-Zarkawi is a “freedom fighter”.

This is the Democratic party of 2005 - it has it’s adherents and they are a rabid 25%. Let’s keep them at 25% by defending the rights of Cindy Sheehan, Kanye West and Sean Penn to be their spokespeople.
