    I'll second this. It may not be a huge step forward in advancing our nation, but the colors are just a punchline, and the joke's not funny anymore.

    I'll do shooter one better and agree with all three. Dye, I still don't particularly like you, but compared to Yawn-hoo and his StuporFriends, you're proving to be downright human. Nice to see.

    Still don't really understand the rapid temperature change on that one, but those who try to please everyone please no one.

    I see not one solution in that graph other than sore loser bullshit.

    What would like to see done about Iraq? Civil liberties? Loosening our dependence on foreign oil? Competing economically with China? Anything?

    And DyePack, I like all three of your suggestions.

    I'd like to agree with whomever said decreasing our dependence on foreign oil. We need to develop alternative fuels and we need to do it now. If that means we have to build more nuclear plants, so be it.

    Oh. . . the near-term domestic agenda's there . . . raise the fed min wage for the first time in nine years . . . arrange for negotiated prescription drug prices, rather than the enormous welfare check currently
    going to the drug companies . . . . federal stem-cell $$$$ support . . . elimination of the absurd
    tax cuts for the top 1% . . . what they had better NOT do is anything towards that ridiculous,
    punitive huge raise in the fed gasoline tax, which incredibly has support on both sides of the aisle;
    regressive? inflationary? yow, a complete disaster.

    So what useful and productive things have been accomplished in the past six years, domestically or internationally?

    Find a poll that says a significant number of voters changed because of anything other than Bush. There's none - none - nada - that said they agree with the political philsophy of Democrats that is above, say, 30 percent. Two network polls this morning have had that number below 20 percent.

    Higher taxes. Economy tanks. Dems lose their majority in no time. Great plan!

    Here's a plan: Get out of Iraq, as quickly as can be done without jeopardizing American lives. Yes, I know this means the Iraqis are fucked. They're fucked now anyway. As it stands, all our troops can do is play the role of a beat cop at a particularly violent domestic disturbance. All they can do is get the warring parties to agree to attack them.

    If you've been paying attention, Pelosi (apparently while she was hiding in a cave) has had a list out for months now detail what she'll do in the first 100 hours.

    Off the top of my head, the first two are implementing all of the 9/11 comission reports and raising the minimum wage.

    Two "democratic" values that the vast majority of Americans are in favor of.
