Reply #37: I Don't See Anything To Celebrate

[KharmaTrain]

Repugnican failures affect all of us. Those dead and wounded returning from Iraq aren't Repugnicans, they're part of all of us. I can go on with a ton of Repugnican power and money scams. The sad deal is there are some...dare I say many...here who suspected a lot of this was going on and the revelations aren't a time for schadenfraude or some kind of gloating or vindication, it's a reminder of what's created this mess and to try to keep the eye on the real prize...removing Repugnicans rather than running endless purity and popularity tests on all stripes of Democrats.

People don't care what I think, and that's fine with me...I'm not one with the crowd either. I look at things as I see 'em and let the chips fall where they may. Right now the Democratic party is the only real vehicle to put the brakes on this Repugnican regime and a future platform for positive changes...but the frustration I see here is the priorities...so many want to get to point C without thinking out how to get past points A or B.

While idealism is great, there has to be a degree of realism and practicality...things that aren't likely to flourish here as speculation and theatrics get more attention.
