When will the Democratic Party and its supporters realize that ReTHUGs view then
as the enemy and have no fugging interest in anything called bipartisanship or democracy.
All they want is power so they can loot every area of government and the social good. Wake the fuck up!!

1. Politically astute men and women will have figured this out by now
|
Anyone still calling for bipartisanship is stupid or corrupt (or both).
It doesn't look like there's any awakening coming our way. |

3. Anyone calling for bipartisanship, is posturing. And should continue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Much of what you do, as a pol, is for effect. Specially when you KNOW things wont push thru. So, suck it up, and allow your candidate to do his thing. They do NOTHINg without polling it. You are going on feelings, and intuition. Why not allow your pros to do what they do?

4. No, this isn't a game.
|
The fact that it's played like a game has a lot to do with the mess we're in.
Life or death of individuals, economies, governmental systems, and nations are at stake. I don't want my reps playing games. If they can't tell the truth in a memorable way, they need to go into a different line of work. |

We need some real truth telling at this point.

|
It's power by any means. It's fugging sabotage of the constitution.

11. Well it worked good in 2010, why not continue down that avenue?
|
I don't want a politician that polls! I want a politician that has ideals and principles. And sticks with them.
That is how the minority Republicans beats us, they say what they mean and stick to it. Right or wrong the public likes people that stick to their ideals and principles. |

8. No. Based on most of the evidence, both sides want the republican agenda.

12. Agree

But don't be disparaging their intelligence with any words that might reflect poorly on any developmentally delayed persons.
They will really start liking us then because we are do sweet and compliant and PC. |

13. The Republicans have so extreme
|
I half expect them to declare the "Democrat Party" illegal.
There's historical precedent for that move. |

14. Good point but "wake the fuck up" doesn't work
|
Many people are "defacto mouthpieces for conservative agitprop" and do not realize what tools for propaganda they are. Whenever someone reads a few books on the history of propaganda they do indeed "wake the fuck up" and can easily see how manipulated we all are but until then the individuals remain ignorant.
Repukes have no one's interest except their own in mind, ever. You are 100% correct. |
