‘Republicons’ and ‘Democrat’ Party
Re “The ‘Democrat majority’ is still the talk of the town,” Jan. 30
Only “Republicons” refer to the Democratic Party as the “Democrat” Party. These are the hard-right-wing party hacks who do not have the courtesy to refer to a major American political party by its correct name -- the Democratic Party. When President Bush stoops to that sophomoric level, he comes across as just one more “Republicon.”

I don’t like “democratic” as an adjective when describing the Democrat Party because it infers that the Republican Party isn’t democratic.
