It is not the Democratic members of the Democratic Party that have been demanding purity, it has been the Bush Dog Democrats who have now found the power of blackmail to not only get whatever they want, they have broken key Democratic principles just because they can.

Rights for women
Support for some form of universal health care
Support for a jobs package to get the economy out of the mess it is in.

Now these Bush Dog Democrats are now spinelessly bunching up together to threaten the whole US Government if they do not get their way and block any increase in borrowing limits. What do they want for their pieces of silver? They want to cut back Social Security and benefits for the low income of America.

These people are supposed to be members of the Democratic Party. They were elected to the Senate on a Democratic platform. This is not about a purity test this is about them acting as a militant wing of the Republican Party within the Democratic Party. They are a cancer.
