Reply #123: Excellent! Though the internet helped me understand what the DLC was up to

[peacetalksforall]

it was tv that first got me going about something that seemed very wrong. I noticed that the same people kept appearing on the tv shows and they were milquetoast. All calm, all smiley, all friendly, all ready to be creamed with a grin. Oh yes, it sounded like they were saying something, but there was no fight there. I realized then and later that the reason they were on those shows all the time is that they were never fired up to fight. They knocked themselves over to make it appear like they were best buddies with the people who were making porridge out of the Democratic Party. I am still sickened as I write this. Watching them went on for two plus decades, in my experience.

The internet proved to me that I was on the right track - thanks to all the contributors from DUers, bloggers, articles, columns. My credibility meter was honed by listening to them. It was all empty rhetoric. I was able to identify the people I could trust - the ones I thought were genuine.

My position (unless someone educates me, is that supporting the DLC is the same as supporting the Republican Party.

I could say more, but I don't want to start a war on the first day of this year.

I'm ready to fight them, but it does mean fighting the WH and Cabinet as well.
