I Believe The Writer Is A Tad Fed-Up !!!
Democrats, Admit It: We're Idiots

by Scott Thill (HuffPost)

<snip>

Every morning we get up and hear the same news over and over again, usually centering on one of two things: The Bush administration's could-give-a-fuck economic campaign to destroy civil liberties at home and abroad, and the Democrats utter inability to do anything of substance about it.

And while it has been a terrorizing streak, it has been easy to nail down, mostly because the too-white Republicans, the vice-president who runs the country and the puppet president who runs the liquor cabinet could care less about being accused of sheer hypocrisy. This is, after all, an administration that can't stop crowing about how much they support the maimed troops rotting away at Walter Reed, even as they send more off to die. An administration that warns us daily about the threat of Middle East terrorism while they sell our ports off to Dubai and inflame sectarian wars across the Iraq, Iran and, well, everywhere. An administration who says they'll fire anyone for compromising the national security of the nation, unless of course it's one of their own that does it, in which case they'll do nothing at all, so go fuck yourselves.

But then there are the sad-sack Democrats, who voters across the country in a fit of rage gave the keys to Congress and were rewarded with half-assed nonbinding resolutions that couldn't even make it past the Senate. And that's after they crowed about all they were going to do in 100 hours. After that? You're on your own suckers!

Why? Well for starters, Clinton and Obama have another whiny bitchfest on the docket, an election to plan for, and other non-essential extracurricular activities to attend to, all while those same soldiers rot away inside Walter Reed because of the war their sorry ilk rubber-stamped. Meanwhile, the jackass Joe Lieberman they thought would help Gore win the 2000 election ended up turning heel and finally becoming the worthless Republican we all knew he was. And they say Nader cost us the 2000 election. The fucking gall.

Is it any wonder the Bush administration steamrolled right over these pussies while implementing a PNAC plan for energy domination disguised as a urgent need to disarm a country we already knew had no WMD? Is it any wonder that these same losers now look back in anger at their 2002 War Authorization red carpet, not because it was wrong or stupid or easily damned, but because it might cost them an election in 2008?

Gotta admit this... My patience is wearing thin too. Something has got to give, and give soon.

1. I like it! I'm with you - the democrats are a bunch of whiny fucks
who love to bitch, but don't seem to want to actually do anything of substance.

2. like Republicans, Democrats in office are, first and foremost, protectors of the status quo . . .
their primary operating principle is "Don't Make Waves" . . . they adhere to this principle at the behest of their corporate rulers/benefactors, who know that making waves could negatively impact their profit margins -- and that's just not acceptable . . .

at a time when we desperately need populist rebels, Congress continues to be populated largely by corporatist toadies . . . and until that changes, nothing much else will either . . .

3. While I commend the author's outrage, the aim and
accuracy are a bit miscalculated. Never mind, though, outrage seems to be the only thing that can penetrate those dunderheads. The more, the better!
