Feinstein censure killed; Courage Campaign camera blocked

The Executive Board of the California Democratic Party killed the censure of Senator Dianne Feinstein. And Bob Mulholland -- the Party's senior advisor and long time chief spokesperson -- blocked a Courage Campaign camera filming an effort by Executive Board members to formally debate the censure. These actions prompt the following questions: What does it mean to be a Democrat? What are our core values as progressives? How do we hold our elected officials accountable for compromising those values? Chime in at:

It's good to see Feinstien and her backers revealed as the sell outs they are. We need to purge the party of these people.

I will give an example of why the polls show Congress at an all-time low. I received an email from Diane Feinstein saying she would not support impeachment of Bush because it would be divisive and would probably not succeed. Nancy Peolosi said impeachment is "off the table." Thus these two Congresswomen have shown that THEY THEMSELVES are part of the problem also, because they will not stand up and do what is right! It is a matter of right and wrong!

Bravo! With Feinstein's vote for the wicked FISA Amendments Act, she needs to be replaced by a grassroots coalition of California Democrats in the next election.

That's what the people in FL who voted for Nader said. Thanks to them, we got 4 more years of Bush. Thankfully our leaders are not as naive.

Ah, "activists." I'm so sick of them. The ONLY way we will leave Iraq is by electing a Democratic president, period. Talk about self-absorbed and destructively idealistic, I bet they voted for Nader. They're the ones that should be censured. Get your head our of your ass and start living in the real world. The world doesn't need more self-absorbed special interest activists. Where's the progress, progressives? Move On!

Bob Mulholland is a solid guy and his wisdom should be heeded. He's been fighting for Democrats since before most of us were born.

President Bush raised his hand and SWORE before God and man to uphold and defend our Constitution, then later referred to it as "a goddamned piece of paper." How could such word ever passed the lips of an American president?! Our liberties have severely eroded under this president. Polls now show him as the most unpopular president in history. Little wonder.

Wow, you really are deluded.

Bush lied about WMD's in Iraq and got busted.

Bush lied about Iran's continuing development of nuclear weapons and just got busted.

But you're so deluded you'll never be able to accept that Bush is the evil bastard he is. What I wonder is WHY you are so deluded, you must really hate yourself.

"Bush NEVER lied, and the moon is made of green cheese, I swear to God!"
