Nothing good comes to Democrats from divisiveness

31. A lot of people aren't going to like this analogy for reasons of their own

In some ways I don't like it either.

I have an Israeli friend. I don't know if you've ever known any Israelis but let's just say they're some of the nicest people I've ever met, unless you get them pissed off at you. It comes, I think, from being called frequently to bomb shelters.

Anyway I asked this friend about his perspective on the Arab-Israeli conflict and he told me that it's like meeting a bully on the schoolyard who wants to take your ball. You tell the bully no. If the bully gets aggressive you get aggressive back. You say no. You stand your ground. No. No apologies. No concessions. You just say no, because otherwise you are enabling the bully.

This is how we must treat the radical left because they are radicals. No. You can't badmouth our party. Vote Democratic. No, I am not going to listen to you smear our candidates, or call me names. No. You have two choices: good or evil. Vote Democratic. Vote Democratic. No. No. Vote Democratic.

I'm sick and tired of the nonsense and the bullying. No, I'm not a "third way" whatever or a "neoliberal." No, I'm not a "corporatist." I'm a Democrat. I'm for Medicare for all. I'm against tax cuts for billionaires. I'm pro-choice. I despise the radical right because they're evil and they're morons. I'm a Democrat. Vote Democratic. Do it. Vote Democratic.
