your right to speak at all!

I'm sick to death of this DLC "if-we-play-nice-and-roll-over-and-lick-Bush's*-boots-we'll-be-accepted-and-loved-and-we'll-have-a-better-chance-next-time-because-we'll-act-just-like-the-"winners"-do" crap.

When you "play nice", you look weak. When you adopt the opposition's viewpoints, you're saying that THEY have the good ideas, and that yours are to be moved away from, plus you alienate your base. If there are any Dem leaders left out there; buy a clue; the DLC IS the opposition! Fight now, or die an ignominious death along with the rest of our democracy.
