When a person starts complaining about how kids today are, I've thought that is a sign of a person getting old. wink I deliberately try to avoid thinking negatively about young people.smile

Rich, I'll be 69 next month. Maybe one of these days my age will hit me.😆

Richard, if you are setting up a C14 by yourself that's pretty good for any age.smile

Russ, what is it about the term "Democrat Party" that you find so offensive?

James, FWIW, I was listening to Mark Levin earlier and he used the term repeatedly. It's simply a pejorative term for the Democratic Party.

Skip ahead to today and I would bet that most that use this "pejorative" are not even aware they are even misusing the term, let alone why it allegedly tweeks Dems. It just sounds stupid to me, especially coming out of a genius like Jr.

PS I'm guessing the similarity between Democrat and Bureaucrat was the intended zinger at the time, but don't quote me on that
Russ, I was listening to a bit of Bongino earlier and he repeatedly used the word Democrat Party. I suspect Rush knew(RIP:angelsmileand Levin, Bongino, etc. know the official name is Democratic, but basically expressed their contempt for the party by using this pejorative term; using Democratic by them would dignify the party to some extent.

That's why I'd be inclined to use it.cool
