NoJusticeNoPeace (1,865 posts) Alright, ONE MORE TIME, it is NOT Democrat Party, it is DemocratIC Partyhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_%28epithet%29 Quote"Democrat Party" is a political epithet used in the United States for the Democratic Party. The term has been used in negative or hostile fashion by conservative commentators and members of the Republican Party in party platforms, partisan speeches and press releases since 1940.I just saw it used in a Huff Post article. This is a big deal, I know many of you say it isnt. It is. PLEASE expose it and complain about it EVERY TIME you see it!

Kalidurga (6,834 posts) 4. How about an inventory.The Republic Party has: a lack of reasonable positions in fact most of their positions are designed to hurt people rather than help. they have no logical reason for these positions. they applaud at the idea people can die because they can't pay for medical care. they oppose nearly if not all civil rights issues. and they believe wage slavery is a good thing even if it means a lot of people go hungry at least once or twice a month and that these same people are always stressed about being less than a pay check away from eviction. I am a bit more worried about that. Because the insults are just designed to distract us from the fact that beneath those insults are some very ugly people ugly to their cores.
Journeyman (10,655 posts) 5. And where did you see it on Huffington Post? . . .
NoJusticeNoPeace (1,865 posts) 7. ...http://www.democraticunderground.com/10491524 read the excerpt from huff post Unless those arent excerpts but are the commentary of the OP, which would still be bad but not the same I guess. NO, it is from the linked article
Journeyman (10,655 posts) 9. Your complaint is with the phrase "Democrat-controlled Senate"? . . .
11 Bravo (17,930 posts) 8. Sorry, a fat junkie on the radio decided that "Democrat" … it will be, and the sheep fell into line.
Dustlawyer (3,905 posts) 29. It is a childish, cheap shot that they get off to everytime they get a rise out of one of us.You can either not rise to the bait, or you can call them on it by educating them (correcting them) with what msongs says above!
napkinz (9,226 posts) 13. that's what often gives the trolls away on hereevery time I see someone post "Democrat Party" I feel like shouting, "We've got one!"
TrollBuster9090 (2,524 posts) 22. I do that, too. Not necessarily on DU, but whenever I see somebody attacking a Democrat, or or a liberal policy as not being liberal enough; and they use the term Democrat Party, I say "GOT-CHA." I do the same thing when somebody who claims to be a progressive, and then uses the term SHEEPLE. Nice try.
Savannahmann (3,616 posts) 15. New day, new rant, roughly as well thought out as the last one.It isn't a big deal. You don't say Senator Reid Democratic, Nevada. You say Senator Reid, Democrat, Nevada. You don't say President Obama is a Democratic. You say President Obama is a Democrat. This isn't an epitaph. Oh, and the reference to the ill conceived rant from yesterday? http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026197580 You're passionate, I'll give you credit on that. However, you are also rather reactionary about these things. That doesn't do our side the good you imagine it does.
jimlup (4,828 posts) 17. Yes I find it very offensive and they****ing know it. They enjoy it. They are such mother****ing baby hypocrites it can't be described in words. And I'm not exaggerating. I do wonder what drives these people. Are they that ****ing mean to their core?
Mira (17,682 posts) 23. I agree with you whole heartedly.It is a put down. Comes from that it rhymes with "rat" I detest it, and never ever let it go unchallenged.
missmo1951 (21 posts) 24. They think it shows disdainWhen it really shows idiocy. They shiver with glee when they use it.
Cha (157,471 posts) 25. Usually the ones who say it are reCons.. trying to trash the Dems in their stupid way or cons posing as Dems online and they slip up 'cause they don't know any better. My experience anyway.
Whiskeytide (942 posts) 26. They get a twisted sense......satisfaction when using it upsets a democrat. That's why they do it. 4 year olds. I quit giving them that satisfaction years ago. I just note who uses it. No sense taking the bell off the cat.
madashelltoo (1,122 posts) 27. That irks me more than I can express.
Year by year the role of ticks in both human and veterinary pathology is shown Ticks to be of increasing importance. In the case of man Spirillum Fever the Spotted Fever of the Rocky Mountains the Karapatti disease of the Zambesi and a fever prevalent in Persia and Beluchistan have all been attributed to parasites transmitted by ticks. In all probability Blackwater Fever is also a human piroplasmosis while evidence is now accumulating to show that the rat tick and not the rat flea may be the agent in spreading plague.
I just put this one up on CU too...

Whatever you do; don't say that in a bathroom with the lights turned off. If you do Nancy Pelosi appears in the mirror behind you.
Kalidurga (6,834 posts)The Republic Party has:
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

It makes me smile that they allow all of us to live rent free in their empty heads.
