Reply #9: Welcome to the NEW and even more *cowardly* Democratic

[ElectroPrincess]

party. Rove has played them on Cabinet nominees like a Stradivaris Violin. The present bunch of gutless wonder Democratic Leadership is so damn PARANOID that they'll be *seen as racist* instead of intellectually and morally honest that they fall all over themselves to complement people of color (and sometimes women).

Rove, in certain circles calls the cabinet members who were astutely picked as RIGHT WING and people of color (or women) Bush's "Untouchables" because the Democratic Leadership does not have the moral courage to stand up to the WRONG person.

They (most Democratic Leaders in our Congress) are such ... such POLITICIANS not OUR REPRESENTATIVES for their constituents' first.

But not without reason: The right wing noise machine owns the media and has more than enough to blackmail many Democrats in congress to fold like cheap suits. I'd bet money that every Democrat who's strayed ethically is known by the Right Wing Republican Leadership (with pictures and/or video in hand). Even if Democratic Leaders have NOT strayed, all Rove has to do is start a whisper campaign and feed it to "The Drudge Report" and if it's reported long enough, it becomes FACT.

My Point: We have very few morally courageous leaders in the Senate, but Bless Her! = Barbara Boxer isn't one of these cowards.
