    It must be way back; I looked up to page 6 and gave up. I guess I could have done a search.

    Well, since you started a new one, we might as well use it.

    California's Democratic party chair rebuked over Goebbels comparison


    http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/sep/03/california-party-chairman-goebbels-comment?newsfeed=true

    I guess President Obama does not like it when California Democrats compare Republicans to Nazi Germans.

    Of course, this is part for the course here in California. Some people I know still call former governor Ahnold "The Nazi". I work sometimes with a work comp lawyer who is always telling his clients that he cannot get them a higher claim and they can blame "The Nazi" for it. Actually - leaving out the Nazi comment and the fact that this guy just wants them to settle fast so he can get his percentage and move on to the next case - he is right. Compensation benefits were curbed substantially under Ahnold.

    Merged. Now lets hope the Democrats can refrain from failing for another six plus months, so this thread can go back into the void where it belongs. :D

    Had a GOP party chair called a Democrat a nazi-related name, I'm sure Mitt would have jumped right on that rebuke...

    From the article, I don't see a smoking gun...but I see smoke. Hopefully the media check and see if there is a fire. Or a gun. Whatever.
    A GOPer getting behind a green energy project would be a fail, but for other reasons. :ROFLMAO::whistling:

    Democrats don't fail, they are just misunderstood.

    A former roommate of mine who practices housing law in Brooklyn has been railing against Vito for about 15 years now. Glad to see the guy is finally getting what he deserves.

    In which way was he a stickler? Did he like to always bring up himself, or did he hate it when others brought him up?

    I'm upset that Colombia was not mentioned as our greatest South American ally.

    Nice potshot but you fail to mention that many "Dem fails" get lumped in with the Obama fail thread. I guess that's an ASF fail.

    It's fair in that if you bring in weak shit, it gets smacked down.

    Indeed. Big fail on me, I guess. What was I thinking? Especially when comparing the flow of the discussion goes in the Obama failure thread vs the Republican failure thread, we can truly appreciate the fact that this board indeed does not lean democratic. :D
