Why are democrats unable to conceive and communicate coherent, fact-based, and intelligent policies ...?

...on the Iraq War, the economy, illegal aliens, and foreign policy? In virutally all cases, the democratic position on these and other global leadership issues of our time is simply to disagree with whatever position taken by Washington. Are Dems unable or unwilling to propose solutions?

    Wanna-be-Speaker Pelosi is living proof. When asked on the Sunday talk show what a "Pelosi Congress" would look like under her leadership she stated that they would oppose any and all of the President's and Republican's initiatives and legislation. No ideas, no vision, no solutions - just "not what they want!"

    BTW Notyou311 – I don’t dispute your link as those individuals were in fact indicted or pled guilty, but I do find it interesting that you couldn’t answer the question. And by not answering the question – you proved the point, the Democrats do not have any solutions.

    Dissemination of issues is not a problem for libs, hell even Bundy and Manson were good with people, to a certain point.

    However, facts tend to falter all good criminals: lies accumulate and innocents get hurt-- the American people being the innocents in this case.

    Pelosi will serve as an example. She truthfully claims she is a mother and grandmother and wants to protect her family as well as the American people, but her ACTIONS(voting record) paint a different picture.

    She has routinely voted to cut military and intelligence spending(post 9/11), opposed the Patriot Act, and gripes along party lines about Gitmo and the NSA surveillance programs.

    LIES and more lies from the libs.

    Stop it with the pointless polar arguments. Think rationally for a second and you will see that there is NO huge difference in the 2 major political parties of today. It's mostly an argument of semantics, and the time spent arguing over which party is right is time lost that could have been used to do something positive.

    You might actually hear some of those ideas if you turned off the Sean Hannity show once in a while. Like Joe Biden's plan to split Iraq into three countries and share the oil revenues. But that never gets mentioned on Fox or Hannity or Rush, because they are too busy talking about Natalie Hollaway still being missing.

    lots of misguided or just downright dumb libs answer questions with pure non facts. they live i a virtual world where their lies become reality for them. its comfy in there and they dont like to venture out. but when they do, they cannot stand up to the truth they encounter nor can they communicate with the learned ones, the republicans. libs & dems cannot process reason or facts. they can barely string together a coherent sentence as the garbage spews out of their mouths. they become shrill and nonsensical when trying to argue with a republican, which only lasts for an instant, before they start thowing out the glowing 60s and clinton era non-facts that have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with what the topic at hand.

    they are to be pitied.

    Why can't Bush answer simple questions without a receiver strapped under his jacket and people feeding him words through an earpiece? You know he had to sell his soul to be re-elected.

    He's a total idiot who should be tried for war crimes. Democrats are the minority in the House and Senate, and the Republicans have the power to vote them down every time on any issue that doesn't suit their lazy a**es.

    VOTE DEMOCRAT

    Are repubs unable or unwilling to propose solutions that DON'T involve murder...? Or prevent UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS from coming into the US without a border like the Berlin Wall? Or even SAY anything without being complete hypocrites??? I guess not.

    do you watch the news? if you do, you apparently can't comprehend what's going on... let me explain...

    Democrats have been pushing for a policy of setting deadlines on Iraq, (that's us proposing a SOLUTION) while Bush has been deadset against it for years...

    now Bush is talking about setting deadlines...

    I guess you didn't see that one?

    and you DARE mention foreign policy... hahaha... when you nominate Bolton to the U.N.? go ask anyone who knows anything about forein policy and they will tell you how LARGE of a joke the current administration is on foreign policy...

    why do Republicans come on here and cry about things they know nothing about?

    Democrats don't waste their energy on evil bigots and their secret agendas. The Democrats talk to people who count -- American Voters. Get your head out of the clouds and join the rest of the nation.
