Reply #96: Hell yes. The last time the Democrats stood

[xxqqqzme]

up to rethuglicans was when Clinton called newt's bluff over shutting down the government. Since the rethugs nearly impeached Clinton over a blow job, the democrats have been shaking in their boots. The DNC was nearly silent during the post November, 2000 chaos. And made no sound after the SCOTUS activist ruling. Then w/ the further intimidation of the post 9/11 rhetoric and calling anyone who disagreed w/ them unpatriotic, flag hating, soft on national security wussies; we arrive at today. A bunch of afraid-of-their-own-shadows Democrats, cowering under the stern gaze of a bunch of bullies that have no power. The Democrats continually defer to the rethug screaming lies, obfuscation & obstruction because the RW media is the echo chamber allowing this decided minority a voice they have not earned and do not deserve.

And we all look on in bewilderment and shake our heads because they seem to be deaf to our voices.
