An open letter to the Democrats in Congress:

[blindpig]

Congratulations. Now pay attention. Do not make the mistake of thinking the American people have chosen you to lead us. It's just that we are so fed up with the Republicans screwing this country within an inch of its life that we are willing to try anything, including getting off our fat asses and going to the polls in enough numbers to defeat the Diebold scheming Repugs.

1. Pretty much. The mandate is for change and accountability,...

...not necessarily for Democrats per se. We have to demonstrate that we can clean things up.

2. I love this part:

Remember how the Repugs wasted time and money ad nauseum discussing Clinton's penis? Well, you need to keep the cameras focused on the obscenity that is Iraq. Get some wounded constituents to tell their stories. Show the bloody flags. Demand profit reports from Halliburton. I mean it -- if you start to cooperate with those fucking Republican thugs, we will vote your asses out too.



Iraq had better be on the top of their to-do list or this constituent is going to be a whole lot of angry.
