"Why isn't that TERRORIST Randall Terry protesting the Republican Contingent in State Senate?"
Uh, maybe because unlike the activist judges (I can't wait for this fight to begin), they were elected by the people ... the same people who elected a republican governor and a republican senator. Maybe that's why Jimmy boy.

Yes, Paul, that's how I got on this, and that was the cause of the confusion.
I have no problem with open lists, although Republicans seem to want to exclude everyone but themselves from any debate in today's America, and I do feel that what comes around should go around, they won't learn a lesson any other way. Alas, it's not my call to do so on this list.
The mods have informed me about the mission of the list, and all that, so I'm cool on that.
It is kinda creepy that they actually let someone like Dennis near a boomer tho. These people literally hate America and all it stands for, and would be more at home in 1930's Italy or Germany, and I would be happy to do a comparative literature analysis AGAIN. I helped declassify the fact that Dubya's Grandfather was Hitler's Banker [Partner to Fritz Tyssen], and have done extensive research along those lines. Anyhow... Email me privately for more info.
On to local topics... How many people got unplugged in the Twin Cities in the past month because of the Medicaid/MNCares cuts that EVERY Minnesota Republican supported. Where is the outrage? Why isn't that TERRORIST Randall Terry protesting the Republican Contingent in State Legislature? Why isn't that TERRORIST Randall Terry protesting the Republican Contingent in State Senate? Why do Republicans consort with TERRORISTS like Terry to begin with? [Hint: because Terrorism has gotten them everything they want from their leaders].

I am guessing that Jim is a new list member that signed up on DFL precinct caucus night. I can understand the confusion on Jim's part, but agree that excluding Republicans or Greens would be a disservice to all of us. One of the great things about this country is that we all have a say in how it is governed - even if we disagree.
Mr. Tim - you might want to have an offline discussion with some of our newer members or post the mission/vision statements of e-democracy to better address this.

I don't understand why you would think this is a DFL list. It's called the "St. Paul Issues Forum" not the "DFL Issues Forum". I'm sure there must be DFL lists out there, but I think the point of this list is to discuss St. Paul issues - not just preach to the DFL choir.
In order to "discuss" issues, there needs to be differences of opinion. If this list IS just a DFL list, that's news to me. Frankly by excluding different ideas there is really no point in discussing anything.

Why is he kept around? He's not a pet, unless you like rattlesnakes, and even if you do, rattlesnakes are dangerous to the community at large.
Don't fall for the "big tent" argument to keep a freep on board, that's called playing us like a fiddle.
Dennis is obviously not DFL, and moreso, seems to not even be an indy. Dennis is a freep, plain and simple.
This is not meant to be a personal attack, just a statement of fact. Why is he here? Am I wrong in thinking that this is a DFL list? If I am, please direct me to the proper DFL St. Paul Issues list. Don't fall for the "but you are supposed to be the 'big tent' party" gambit, it's the oldest RNC trick in the book to keep disruptive operatives in the "circle".
His latest remarks concerning Native Americans are interesting, and to me were offensive, because although I went to school with a large number of people on and working for the Navajo Tribal Council, I wouldn't attend a Tribal or Inter-Tribal Pow-Wow, unless outsiders were invited. I don't think anyone on this list would be so uncouth as to do such, except maybe Dennis [if he thought he could spy on them or disrupt them].
I know this could be interpreted as a personal attack, but I see it more as a list security issue, and statement of fact, based on observation. I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds here, but at this point, the question does need to be asked.
When I posted my intro here, I thought I was posting to a DFL group what amounted to an overview of my political resume. I had no intention of that being sent directly to an RNC operative's mailbox.
I'll send this later, I have a press conference to help do on the topic of Tom Delay in four minutes.
