I am sure that, given enough time, you could do similarly for the Republicans.

I'm not sure where to go with this thread. Should Democrats slap Republicans now? How quickly will that turn ugly with several people jumping in from both sides to the point you can't follow the thread.

My usual reply to Democrat bashing is to look at history and analyze how many things we now see as historically 'wrong' were initiated/perpetuated by the conservative parties of the time.

[Just Plain Ruff]

But it's so much more fun to bash the democrats.

Tell that to all the dead soldiers in Iraq. IE sent by our last Republican President.

[Dustdevil]

Right after you tell it to all those that the Democrats sent to die in the Mexican-American War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and Somalia.

And let's not forget the Democrats' stellar contributions to slavery and Native American genocide.
