"The first event takes place on Wednesday, when the Republican National Committee, as today's *Washington Times* reports, will hold a special meeting at National Harbor in Maryland to decide whether or not to endorse a resolution demanding that the Democratic Party call itself the "Democrat Socialist Party." RNC chairman Michael S. Steele is resisting the resolution even as he uses the term socialist to describe the Obama administration's fiscal policies."
Weird use of the GOP's time, but after the last year or so, I guess this shouldn't be surprising. Although if the Democrats take on the title of socialist, I feel like we ought to be getting nationalized health care out of it. Other than that, what the hell is it with Republicans refusing to the use the term "Democrat*ic*"? I just figured that it was to annoy Dems, but maybe there's something there that I'm missing.
