14. Agree ... and here the broader insanity on this ... last election $4 billion corporate $$$
Edited on Wed Jan-19-11 03:41 PM by defendandprotect
-- for every $1 the Dems got, the GOP got $7 --

Now, obviously, there was a choice to be made --

whether the Dem party should continue or not to take corporate money --

Was there a moral decision made to do that -- or was there simply a FLIP?

And how much more of Democratic Party ideals and commitments will have to be

sold off to breach the gap between that $1 and that $7 limbo stick?


Imagine the response had the Democratic Party announced they were ridding themselves

of the DLC-corporate wing and would not in future accept any more corporate bribes?

That Democrats would no longer be pre-owned by corporations?

Well, that's not what we heard --

what we are seeing is yet one more FLIP by Obama not on the side of morals but on

the side of corporations/elites/right wing!

And DU'ers are still milling around saying ... "I'm not sure about what's going on?"
