It always seems to be that the DFl is very "dirty" in there politics, they always are the first to do the low blow tactics. All you need to do to see this is to watch the ads prior to any election. But don't worry DFL’ers the government will save us all, no need to think for yourself!!

Is it true that you don't have any friends and so you joined the DFL party and ever since you have steadily scared away all of the normal people and now it only you and the Kool-Aid fringe remaining in the room? Too bad for the DFL, they once actually had some power and now they have little. They indoctrinate kids by making them shoot Elephants in public places. RIP DFL, Hello Communism.
