All I hear is Mitchy and his Boner saying
IF Obama pushes thru immigration reform - forget it, we will not work with him. Ever Again!
And the msm is spoon feeding this to its listeners. EVEN on msnbc. OF COURSE!!
Hello Dems - here, this is sitting for you on a silver platter...
If the GOP tries to take away healthcare from 10 Million people then there is NO chance we are going to work with them.
We can block their legislation in the Senate JUST AS THEY HAVE DONE TO US FOR THE LAST 6 YEARS.
Why are they so afraid to fight? They are beating us up in the messaging wars and we just roll over and take it.

(1,596 posts)Not saying that the dems who do sometimes manage to get an invite on talk tv/radio always have a strong and clear message, they don't and that perplexes me when they have a chance at the megaphone then blow it like whimpering little feardy cats.
But over all, the message is controlled by the minions who work for the Big Media, the big Media Bill Clinton helped birth. Things can never improve when the lies keep spilling forth from the tube and brainswash people. Fix this and you can fix anything.

(10,650 posts)President Obama is trying to, but in a presidential manner. Other Democrats need to make the direct attacks on the republican nonsense. But, everyone is so afraid nothing happens.

(3,450 posts)And now that both houses of congress will be rePug controlled, I expect to see the phrase "keeping the powder dry" resurrected and used more often by the Dem leadership as they sit and watch the rePugs run roughshod all over the place.
Here too.

This is the meme the Repubs have successfully planted, with the help of the MSM.
The only cure is to use every opportunity to explain just how radical and unacceptable their agenda is. Everyone needs to get on this.
