Where are the Democrats?

[texastoast]

I've received a lot of emails about protests in the D.C. area by grassroots groups. Does anyone know what the party is doing? I mean, why is it that they seem to be lying down for Bushco's upcoming coronation?

There are many things the party should be protesting besides the apparent fraud that occurred during the election:

Health care
Social Security privatization
Tax cuts for the wealthy
Lack of body/equipment armor in Iraq
Halliburton fiasco
Patriot Act
Environmental destruction

The list goes on and on.

Where the hell are they? Why haven't I received an outraged email from them? I'm fervently hoping that I'm just out of some loop.

1. That's what I'd like to know too

It seems that we're the only ones (DU) who are outraged. :grr:

2. It's not YOU who is out of the loop

It's the party

3. Why should they care?

The democrats that are left all have secure seats in Congress. They are reaping the benefits of PAC money, receiving excellent health care, and don't need social security. Dissent is a waste of time for them.
