We have less than a year!

So, after the conclusion of the things “The speaker of the House” is doing a big nothing. The best case we have is 10 counts of obstruction! Just so I’m being clear we control 1/2 of 1/3 of government... the only real power we have is impeachment and we are holding our hand for what?!? The time is now! We aren’t guaranteed reelections! We won the house on a “Do something damnit” agenda and we haven’t delivered. If you are a Nancy apologists or milquetoast moderates you may want flag this but at some point as the landscape becomes clearer to you, the blame shifting will begin. You will blame progressives for scaring the middle. You will blame Republicans for being ignorant. You will even blame whoever is on the top of the ticket for not being inspiring but at the end of the day it will be you lot for not demanding action and being ok with politics over principle and practice! Start impeachment inquiries ,take them slow! Drag them out for 6 or 9 months make them slow painful and on the news everyday. Make the conventions a referendum on the criminal in the White House. Trump will win re-election if we don’t because the economy is booming! (Well so says the talking heads on the TV.) We can offer free-education, health care, or whatever but if we can’t show we are willing to fight no one will believe us and no one will be motivated to “just have us there”.

I think we are being played...

My RW coworker was laughing out loud singing "Another one bites the dust" as she read that news that Al Franken had a press conference for Thursday. I asked her about Moore and Trump and she just said: "...they said they didn't do so, all I can do is take them at their word..." WHAT?!?!? yep, she just went on her way. Ya know what? She's right! We are so righteous and pure that we will lose the war to win "the battle of who could care less". So Al resigns, then what? Do we lose a vote in the Senate? Do we get a weak replacement who will lose in the next election? OH boy! Good for us! Sucker a bunch of stupid suckers. We lose because we think they care how good we look, we lose because we are fighting a foe who DOES NOT CARE! We keep bringing Hugs to a damn GUN fight! and wonder why the American people are OK with the other guys.... because they WIN! They win and we keep getting suckered into loss after loss. Good luck shutting up the " them too Republicans", when all they will say is your guy quit because he was guilty and they will just say "it wasn't me." SUCKERS keep letting em win time and again. hmmm... Suckers. I support Democrats who FIGHT. Let's go to court, let's do an investigation, so we can ask the same from the loyal opposition. We should not just sacrifice one of our own for PR we should support them until found guilty!

GOP Senators Finally Starting To Realize Their Party Nominated A Total Racist

Source: Huffington Post


Sen. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) became the first Republican member of Congress to rescind an endorsement of Donald Trump, saying on Tuesday that he could no longer support his party’s presumptive nominee for president after Trump’s racist attacks against a federal judge.

“I cannot and will not support my party’s nominee for President,” he said.

Kirk’s statement was the most powerful denunciation of Trump to come from Republicans on Capitol Hill, but it was hardly the only one, suggesting that Trump’s racist attacks are finally starting to worry GOP lawmakers.

Can no one else see the rope a dope...

OK so because i think by now we have to have all seen this before I really hate to say that many of you are damn foolish. Yeah Obama took it on the chin, but I think he ment too. He allowed the lies to come out for Romney to say everything and pretend to understand the average guy. What Obama just did was to allow Mitt to punch himself out. The fact checkers are starting to see the BS. Obama, let the good stuff (Bain, 47% and jobs) go. What we have is the Republicans all patting themselves on the back. The media calling it a horse race again. Now and the next debate the Republicans will be looking for a repeat. HOWEVER, between now and then the fact checkers will have said it was all lies. The next debate will have a higher viewership and then Obama will go H.A.M ( for my hip-hop challenged friends that's Hard As a Mother F*cker). He will use attacks that are being brewed in the interwebs. Van Jones looks to be the only one who is started to see it. I've been watching CNN and Fox and I'm telling you this is a setup and I think Alex Rod just tipped his hand. I know many of you are in a panic but don't be next week Biden will mop the floor with skippy and a few days later Obama will come out swinging. The memory of the country is short and the ad flood in the swing states will keep the Debate form giving Romney to big a bump. I Keep saying it but it looks like I will need too say it again the Presidents team is good too good to lose to the clown car that is Romney.

P.S.

F*ck undecideds they are idiots.
