Whoever told you Democrats do not believe in the same things you listed above as the so called right-wing "true patriots?"
The people perpetrating these misconceptions are the traitors.
People can be Democrats or Republicans and ...gasp...even independents and still be patriots.
We can agree or disagree - THAT is what this country was founded on and THAT is what makes us great.

Obviously..keep drinking the kool-aid, BB.
I'd like to know what kool-aid she was drinking!!

They are drinking that Kool Aid that suspends...
reality and keeps them from understanding anything bigger than hope and change, can't see the forest for the trees. It may be nice to sit back and watch the debacle that is sure to come once O is the new dicta...sorry, president. We will have the last laugh; too bad the country is going to suffer even more before any one of them wises up.
Boy, talk about drinking the Kool-Aid.
Israel would not even exist were it not for western powers high-jack of historical Palestine dating back thousands of years. They have been sustained by US tax dollars from the get go and absent that, they would be consumed by all the hatred they and their accomplices have generated over the past 60 years with their neighbors, since nobody on the face of the earth other than the imperial global bully would think of propping up its barbarism.
You can quote your Holy book all you want and they will quote theirs. Neither side will score any semblance of lasting peace in that futile exercise, especially since they originated from the same pooled blood of the Semitic tribes, and besides, this is not 1000 BC. No amount of preaching is going to make a dent in this disaster.
The only squatters in Palestine these days are the greedy settlers who cannot be satisfied with their own real estate agreed upon in Peace Accord, but then again history shows us that the Zionists could not keep their own word if their lives depended on it. They are now continuing their land grab within the shrunken borders of the West Bank, with their most violent factions being found in Hebron, where they pillage and murder with impunity. I've got video, if you are interested.
God was taken WAY out of this equation in 1948.
If you doubt my word, just let me know and I will post a link to a 9+-minute raw video out of Gaza showing the aftermath of one of Israeli's air raids on an open market full of families and not a militant in sight. Featured there are women, children, teens and elders writhing in piles of human carnage on a field piled high with human body parts, some remains no bigger than a 3rd-grader's back pack. But a word of caution, the video is not for the faint at heart. Do not view if you have just recently eaten and NEVER play it in the presence of children. Better still, Google it yourself..."Gaza Massacre market" and select the third hit from Sabbah TV, then get back to me and show me where God is in that clip.
Stop drinking the toxic Kool-Aid and do some
instead of parroting the partisan talking heads who are simply attempting to play politics with history.
The majority of toxic loans were made by financial institutions that were not subject to existing regulations thanks in large part to Phil Gramm. Btw, no one forced anyone to do anything. No one forced the banks to give loans to individuals who could not afford them and no one forced those individuals to attempt to purchase a home without the means to pay for.
Is that cherry or grape Kool Aid yer drinking?

Uh-huh. Have you been drinking again?
That's how it should be! No drinking.
And dancing is dirty - it's just fornication to music.
Bush drinking again???
(I was ready to disregard this, coming from the National Enquirer. Then I weighed the credibility and honesty of the National Enquirer against the credibility and honesty of conservatives, and suddenly there was no longer any contest.)

BUSH'S BOOZE CRISIS
By JENNIFER LUCE and DON GENTILE
Faced with the biggest crisis of his political life, President Bush has hit the bottle again, The National Enquirer can reveal.
Bush, who said he quit drinking the morning after his 40th birthday, has started boozing amid the Katrina catastrophe.
Family sources have told how the 59-year-old president was caught by First Lady Laura downing a shot of booze at their family ranch in Crawford, Texas, when he learned of the hurricane disaster.
His worried wife yelled at him: Stop, George.
Following the shocking incident, disclosed here for the first time, Laura privately warned her husband against falling off the wagon and vowed to travel with him more often so that she can keep an eye on Dubya, the sources add.
When the levees broke in New Orleans, it apparently made him reach for a shot, said one insider. He poured himself a Texas-sized shot of straight whiskey and tossed it back. The First Lady was shocked and shouted: Stop George!
Laura gave him an ultimatum before, 'It's Jim Beam or me.' She doesn't want to replay that nightmare — especially now when it's such tough going for her husband.
Bush is under the worst pressure of his two terms in office and his popularity is near an all-time low. The handling of the Katrina crisis and troop losses in Iraq have fueled public discontent and pushed Bush back to drink.
A Washington source said: The sad fact is that he has been sneaking drinks for weeks now. Laura may have only just caught him — but the word is his drinking has been going on for a while in the capital. He's been in a pressure cooker for months.
The war in Iraq, the loss of American lives, has deeply affected him. He takes every soldier's life personally. It has left him emotionally drained.
The result is he's taking drinks here and there, likely in private, to cope. And now with the worst domestic crisis in his administration over Katrina, you pray his drinking doesn't go out of control.
Another source said: I'm only surprised to hear that he hadn't taken a shot sooner. Before Katrina, he was at his wit's end. I've known him for years. He's been a good ol' Texas boy forever. George had a drinking problem for years that most professionals would say needed therapy. He doesn't believe in it [therapy], he never got it. He drank his way through his youth, through college and well into his thirties. Everyone's drinking around him.
Another source said: A family member told me they fear George is 'falling apart.' The First Lady has been assigned the job of gatekeeper. Bush's history of drinking dates back to his youth. Speaking of his time as a young man in the National Guard, he has said: One thing I remember, and I'm most proud of, is my drinking and partying. Those were the days my friends. Those were the good old days!
Age 26 in 1972, he reportedly rounded off a night's boozing with his 16-year-old brother Marvin by challenging his father to a fight.
On November 1, 2000, on the eve of his first presidential election, Bush acknowledged that in 1976 he was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol near his parents' home in Maine. Age 30 at the time, Bush pleaded guilty and paid a $150 fine. His driving privileges were temporarily suspended in Maine.
I'm not proud of that, he said. I made some mistakes. I occasionally drank too much, and I did that night. I learned my lesson. In another interview around that time, he said: Well, I don't think I had an addiction. You know it's hard for me to say. I've had friends who were, you know, very addicted... and they required hitting bottom (to start) going to AA. I don't think that was my case.
During his 2000 presidential campaign, there were also persistent questions about past cocaine use. Eventually Bush denied using cocaine after 1992, then quickly extended the cocaine-free period back to 1974, when he was 28.
Dr. Justin Frank, a Washington D.C. psychiatrist and author of Bush On The Couch: Inside The Mind Of The President, told The National Enquirer: I do think that Bush is drinking again. Alcoholics who are not in any program, like the President, have a hard time when stress gets to be great.
I think it's a concern that Bush disappears during times of stress. He spends so much time on his ranch. It's very frightening.

A drinking problem?
She was a teenager making bad choices. Have you raised a teenager yet?
Or - what exactly is she SMOKING? (Or drinking?)
Keep drinking koolaid
The thing that pulled us out of the great depression was the war because back then it created jobs here in America. We don't have that luxury now because nothing is frickin made here and even if it was......Americans don't buy our own stuff. It was not FDR's New Deal that saved America from the great depression. This isn't BS from fox. This is history 101. You liberals complain about pubs saying anything and that is about as hypocritical as it gets. Both sides do that. I'm a middle of the road kind of gal but I'm smart enough to know what got us out of the great depression and it wasn't FDR's New Deal.
So, you are also drinking the MSNBC
nm
Oh, this is rich. You accuse me of drinking and then cry when it happens to you. SM
Typical liberal double standards.
gt accuses us of drinking daily
just wanted to see how she handled somebody accusing her of it....evidently she can dish it, but she can't take it.
What did Jesse Jackson do now? Has he been drinking

You made excellent points! <Hope you know my subject line was completely tongue in cheek.> 
That is NOT in the title. More lies. Keep drinking.

Not me, I'm drinking Obama-aide. I haven't been....sm
this happy in almost 50 years. My Hope-ometer is off the chart. I think that honesty is refreshing and no malice was intended. It was funny. I am still chuckling over politically incorrect Jill and the response of her husband, Oprah and the audience.
People drinking the Koolaid love O. Reality

Potential for toxic leach in Colorado River, drinking water for

how about kool-aid?

Kool-Aid
You do realize Kool-Aid was a term started by the Pubs to laugh at you? Why are you using our lines? Get your own!
kool aid
This phrase seems to mean making a horribly bad decision and doing the decision. Those poor people at Jonestown were deceived into suicide by an evil man.
Does Kool-Aid
come in chianti flavor?
tastes like.....Kool-Aid
Big gulp, come on..it tastes almost as good as the republican Kool-Aid that you'all have been drinking for years..here, I can even flavor it if you want..some Sweet and Lo and it tastes just like republican Kool-Aid..you know the stuff that makes your mind go all blank and then think only conservative hurtful to America ways.
drink the kool aid
Thank you for your post! They drink the Kool-Aid, dont ya know? They are brain washed. To come up with an independent idea would be something they could not do.. As much as I look on neocons with distain I actually pity them. What a narrow look on life they have..so sad..

Can I offer you some Kool-Aid?

Oh brother - get off the kool-aid
This is even weirder than the OP message.
Where's that icon of someone throwing up!
Whether we drank the kool-aid or not........sm
we still have to put up with this lame excuse for an administration. Granted, that is the case regardless of the party in office, but what we are up against is a pretty dismal prospect. It's gonna be a long 4 years.
Okay,kool-aid drinker......
I suppose you're gonna tell me giving free birth control and condoms will create jobs too? You don't need the government to create your jobs; well, maybe you believe we do, but that is not what this country is all about. Government spending money has NEVER helped us before; you suddenly think that will change anything?
This is a pork barrel spending plan............this is no stimulus plan.....
Please stop repeating Obama's words. Think for yourself.
Just because O grins sarcastically and says the words, doesn't mean a thing positive except he has white teeth.......geeeze!
MORE GOVERNMENT = MORE TAXES = MORE SOCIAL PROGRAM = MORE GOVERNMENT CONTROL = MORE DEBT = NOTHING GOOD FOR THE WORKING CLASS or even the idiots who don't know they've been had!
"Cyanide in the kool-aid?"....sm
as in political genocide? Hmmm.....now who does that remind me of......

Drink some more Kool-Aid!!
Freeze...step away from the Kool-Aid. nm

Yes, God deliver us from the evil Kool-Aid
Wow, you've really drank the kool-aid
I say that because you honestly don't think there's a terror threat in the world. You seem to think that everything that happens in the world is a scheme concocted by some shadow government. You can't deal with the reality that there are evil people in the world who actually want to hurt people. Well, you do believe that, but you think it's your own government. While I do believe there is some of element of corruption in all governments I do not believe my government is generating terror threats. The terror threat did not come from with the U.S. this time. It came from Great Brittain. It has also happened in Spain and other non-U.S.-run governments. I'm sorry you are so deluded by conspiracy theories that you cannot see the forest for the trees.
I'll pass on the kool-aid (nm)

kool-aid drinkers? Obama did a lot more than

Hmmm...Kool-Aid or lemons?
We will continue drinking Kool-Aid, and you can continue sucking on lemons. Who do you think will be happier? By the way, sucking lemons makes you a sourpuss!
some of us only saw a mob of slackeyed kool aid drinkers at that
the vast majority of them, that is.
These guys don't drink Kool-Aid.
Here ya go. Just a few examples for you to mull over.

In the flesh interview with Dr. Larry Hunter, influential conservative economist, talks about why he endorses Obama. Interview starts @ 1:25 into the clip.
http://www.usatoday.com/money/economy/2009-01-08-obama-economy_N.htm
Conservative economist Martin Feldstein agrees that "reviving the economy requires a major fiscal stimulus from tax cuts and increased government spending."
For now, most conservative Republicans who could try to block the new Democratic president's plan are willing to boost red ink. Armed with an electoral mandate and faced with a mammoth recession, Obama is being given a wide berth by the GOP. "We need to govern," says Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee. "These issues are so huge and are going to have such a devastating impact on our nation if they're not aggressively and boldly addressed, that we can't afford for this just to be a party-line event."
... but even conservative economists agree a huge stimulus package with a variety of spending initiatives is needed. "I have just two words: big and everything," says Martin Regalia, VP, Economic and Tax Policy and chief economist for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

The endorsement from the Economist (a virtual bastion of conservatives) raised a few eyebrows.
http://www.gallup.com/poll/113701/Majority-Americans-Favor-775-Billion-Economic-Stimulus.aspx
This kind of support is at least as significant as that of conservative economists.
Do you work in the Kool Aid Factory?
Or just distribute its products?
Me too - I told her don't forget the kool-aid
We need a good sense of humor to get through the next four years.
Pretty expensive kool aid, isn't it? sm
He is telling Congress that if they don't pass this $900B+ package that we may never dig our way out of this hole we are in. I highly doubt that, but I wonder if so much damage has alraedy been done that we won't see an end in our lifetime.
Not that it amounts to a hill of beans at this point, but I'm sure glad I didn't vote for him.
