The Paradox that Drives Me Crazy!

The GOP can scream about non-scandals and then get major investigations like Benghazi, yet Democrats aren't screaming about treasonous election stealing and foreign interference like with Russian hacking. WTF?

If the shoe was on the other foot and the Republicans were the minority party, all hell would be breaking loose.

If the Democrats won't raise hell over this, we have no opposition party in this country. That is profoundly disturbing.

Our party has rolled over with barely a sigh. We ought to be storming the damn capitol over the theft of a supreme court judge

there is no opposition party. We get ignored and ridiculed when we try to fight so we have been successfully trained to keep quiet, after all we need that corporate money too! Money out of politics!!!
