Or the small-minded, misguided minority who praise Rand Paul, who believe every lie Glenn Greenwald pushes out, who think Ed Snowden is a hero - and who have loudly & proudly refused to support Democrats & the Democratic Party?

The sad truth that the Obama haters can't stand is the fact that Obama & the mainstream Democrats ARE ALREADY doing really good things - without the Republicans, and without the phony Democrats.

whine because they just now realized that Democrats aren't really unicorns who fart rainbows, then they drop a a few supposed witticisms in support of Rand Paul...

And when you demonstrate the absolute unreality of their "facts", you get called a murderous totalitarian thug who eats puppies. Obama haters are turning DU into a Freerupublic clone.

Their ODS is so bad, they can't even keep their poisonous hate out of the BOG. And they will never, ever, admit that their vote for Nader gave us Bush, and their staying out of the voting booth in 2010 (you know, to show Obama!) gave us the red wave of House teabaggers that have gerrymandered the country and are now holding it hostage.

They mock people like ProSense who give facts and links, they call DUers who actually are fighting in the trenches to get Dems elected in red states, like arely staircase, "cheerleaders" or worse. One of them listed the DUers who rec'd a post and called them all John Birchers. The alert on that failed by 4 to 2. http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023707888#post214 So now it is OK to call out by name long-time DUers and label them John Birchers.

DU is supposed to be better than this.

Stop letting the Repubs dictate what you do and what you stand for. We have NO control over that other party, so we need to stop whining aboyt them. We need to show how we are different from them at every turn. We need to be smarter in how we deal with them, and more determined and more committed to core party principles, and call them out at every turn. Stop acting like helpless victims of the Republican party. We have the people on our side. Stop being angry, stop being afraid, and start being proud, bold, Denocrats!

Congress don't love this country as much as most Americans.

But, of course.. it's their hatred for President Obama that's making it impossible.
