Reply #78: I have to agree with you. There were those that said we should tolerate the blue dogs and dinos...

...if it meant we were in the majority so we could have subpoena power. Well we did, we have, and so far not a fucking thing has happened...we are told to "look forward not backwards" conveniently forgetting the maxim that those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. We were told not to look into torture, false imprisonment, election fraud, going to war on false pretenses...you know..petty shit like that...

For a bunch of really smart guys in the administration and in congress we sure act like a bunch of dummies. I hate to say it but it's like high school all over again. The Dems are the nerds, and the rethuglicans are the jocks...and the jocks are kicking our ass whether there's more or less of them because they aren't afraid to get dirty. More to the point, they aren't afraid to get every single jock to toe the line when it comes to their overall agenda, something the Dems are simply unable to accomplish...

So yes, even though we may lose control in the short term, we need to get the Dinos and the blue dogs out, hunker down, and once the shitstorm has blown over and the general population has FINALLY figured out that the gop has only their benefactors best interests at heart, take control again and move this country forward.

The one thing I really want to see, just once, is a Dem with power (i dunno, maybe the Prez) call these fuckers out and punch them squarely in the mouth. The ONLY way a bully learns is when you finally kick the ever-loving shit out of them, and that is the only way (metaphorically of course) that the current knuckle-dragging thugs running the gop will stfu once and for all. I know the Prez can't do it now, but after he wins in 2012 and officially becomes a lame-duck I sincerely hope he pullls the gloves off and commences the ass-whoppings as soon as the inauguration is over with....

Here endeth the rant...
