The Stupid Party

It used to be the Republicans. Now it's the Democrats--the Stupid Party.
Today's Democratic mainstream is no more willing or able to stand up to the party's present leftist insurgency than the older mainstream was to stand up to the New Left. The tenor of the current left is best captured by something Lionel Trilling said in 1949 about conservatives: They do not "express themselves in ideas but only in action or in irritable mental gestures which seek to resemble ideas." Even this description may be overly generous.
Recall In The Left's Own Words. And this:
The allies of the wealthy, the bloggers, are the coalition's hit men. Almost all are males in their thirties. The two most prominent, "Markos and Jerome" (Markos Moulitsas ZĂșniga of the Daily Kos and Jerome Armstrong of MyDD), gained their fame and won their political clout by latching onto Howard Dean's candidacy in 2003 and using the Internet to help create the "Democratic wing of the Democratic party." Their websites not only constantly abuse thought, but show contempt for intellectuals, even while gaining influence among them. The language is often violent and vulgar. The moving spirit of the Daily Kos is one of anger and resentment, which, when not directed at Democrats who dare to stray from the wing line, is directed at the president, the vice president, and the Iraq war.
The foul-mouthed, self absorbed, adoloscent Left, leading the Democrat party. Mostly angry white males heading the Stupid Party. (Think we'll see a lead MSM story on that?)

And their major allies are MoveOn and the vote-fraud promoter, ACORN.
