(25,592 posts)138. We all want the same things
Look: In the end, all of us Democrats want the same thing, both the moderates and the moonbats.
Except we cannot agree what those things are.
For instance, some are for war, until they are not, like for instance when diplomacy interferes. Then having to lay down those skid marks in the sudden 180, to keep up with the talking points, defaces the parking lot. Or the Chained CPI isn't really that bad. Bailing out the Big Boys, so they can ship the jobs overseas is needed to help the recovery. Tax breaks that starve the government of operating funds, helps the recovery by putting $37.53 a year in your pocket and millions in the pockets of those that are shipping the jobs overseas, just so they can survive. That $136.76 million, minus the stock options and bonuses, paid the CEO, is hard on the bottom line, don't chakno?
Yeah, we're all Democrats here, Yes sirie Bob, yeah we are.

Many of us aren't looking for shtick here. Why not cut out the sarcasm/satire and just write.
