Bullies don't stop until someone stands up to them

[suffragette]

And the Republicans are the bullies at the schoolyard.

Give up lunch money today and they'll demand more tomorrow.
Try to talk reasonably and they'll curse and call you names.
Turn your back and they'll conk you on the back of the head.

We must stop caving in to these bullies.

Giving bullies what they want won't mollify them, it just makes them more determined to keep pushing us until they push us off the cliff.

The only way is to square your shoulders, stand up to them and then they'll back down like the cowards all bullies really are.

And it's past time that this is done.
