---I still don't think its something you'd give to right-wingers...It's really a cheerleading cause for us Dems and Progressives/Liberals--- If you want to know what we've done for this nation?
Though I can find some value in what Democrats have given this nation. Democrats have championed Truth in Advertising Laws, Anti-Trust Laws, Civil Rights, Womens Suffrage, Food Safety Laws, Worker Safety Laws, Universal Public Education (the Morril Land Grant is a good example), TVA, Scientific Research, the Space Program, Environmental laws, Bank Deposit Insurance, Product Safety, CDC, and Disability laws just to name a few things. These initiatives that all Americans (including many self-professed neo-Cons) directly benefit from overcame stiff opposition from Republicans.
Now ... as for my post edited here it is. I decided not to repost as a new thread.
Much apathy has been on the board today with questionable poll results, but I implore us all…DO NOT QUIT.
Absolutely NOT shall we ever say, “Go ahead and elect Bush.” I do not mean to single out anyone, as I understand the frustration, however, we MUST NEVER give up and let these wretched demigods to continue perpetual control over the entire globe.
We continue to see our guy getting beaten down, our views trampled and our integrity ridiculed. This is what these right-wing hustlers do. They pound and pound us into submission until we don’t have the fight left to fight anymore.
Remember the 1960s? They did that and when the passion still couldn’t be curtailed they murdered Bobby Kennedy and Dr. King. It is not a coincidence that after those murders the Liberal movement completely lost steam. These dirty shitz will stop at nothing, but we must NEVER quit. Too much blood has been shed.
These people will do anything to advance their power and dreams of oligarchy and theocracy onto this world. They will use lies, distortions, propaganda and they have the most willing Conservative lackeys in all positions of power within the media, all the way from TV station owners to bloated wind-bags fanning the flames of anti-Liberal, anti-that, anti-this hatred 24/7 on AM radio.
Quitting is what they f****** want…because it means they don’t have to debate. It means no one (us) is there to check their putrid hypocrisy. It means Carte’ blanche on everyone, anything, and everything. It means no accountability for their destructive, selfish policies.
I would not ever dream of asking John Kerry and John Edwards to just QUIT…so I’ll be damned if I am. I will keep pounding my friends with argument, keep sending emails to CNN, and keep making phone calls, remain active and vigilant in this quest.
This isn’t a football game. This is the future of our entire world at stake. We can ill afford to leave our children this place after a decade of being under the thumb of these corporate whores. What will we tell our kids? We were just too tired, too frustrated, to apathetic to fight off the biggest corporate tyrannies not seen since the days of the robber barons?
Democrats have ALWAYS been the bastard children. It was progressives who risked getting killed in defending freeing the slaves, it was progressive ideas that got Abe Lincoln and Dr King murdered…It was progressives that fought to get our children out of the sweatshops…It was progressives who vehemently promoted the idea of women’s suffrage…it was US US US NOT THE FUCKING REPUBLICAN pigs who asked corporations to be TRUTHFUL with their products, to pay a fair wage and to quit exploiting anything and everything that moved…we have protected men, women, children, the aged, the disposed, the homeless, those without food or water, our environment, consumers, our civility and our humanity…Without someone, ANYONE to stand up to these disgraceful charlatans then our nation is finished.
Kaput…Done…Fine’…
We give up now and we can usher in a new era of Michael Milkins, book burnings, persecution of “undesirables”, S&L loan bailouts, poverty, war, pollution, more health care travesties, less corporate accountability, more off shore exporting of American jobs, more extinction of family farms, more greed, more corruption, more blood lust, more vengeance, ad nauseum.
I refuse to give up that easy and NO ONE on this board or in this great nation should ever give up. Screw the polls (though they still remain in our favor)…Trust in the knowledge that we have the infinitely better candidate…and most importantly THE BETTER MAN. If you can’t trust that then you can trust nothing.
