Reply #73: It's a lot simpler really; think about what people who defend the Pres. unconditionally are actually

[TiberiusGracchus]

defending:

1. Continued rejection to prosecute (and thus VALIDATION) of the men who violated our principles by torturing prisoners.

2. Expansion of our illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq (and parts of Pakistan)

3. Continued reticence with robust environmental and climate reform.

4. Continued operation of the Guantanamo Bay torture facility.

5. An expansion and INCREASE in aggressive predator drone bombing attacks on civilian areas not only in Afghanistan but also now in Pakistan.

6. A rejection of genuine socially-responsible healthcare reform procedures like single-payer or even the public option.

7. A total failure to correct the grotesque excesses of the financial industry AND the utter stupidity of bankrolling their means of ignoring the lessons they so desperately needed to learn.

And to this we can expect our fellow DU'ers to urge us to "STAY THE COURSE" and defend the administration because doing otherwise would be "EMBOLDENING THE ENEMY" in the GOP.

Where have we all heard THAT before.
