Failed for the last time.
So with the Alito nomination...handed to the GOP on a silver platter by centrist democrats and apathetic, pathetic public and brainless media.

Stevens is going to retire and will give Bush a third selection to the court.

Iraq War....handed to the GOP by centrists....

Tax Cuts for the rich handed to the GOP by centrists....

Social program spending cuts handed to the GOP by the centrists....

The cream filled center has been fattening the GOP for 15 years...

Game over. Neocons win.

Protect your family. It is everyone for themselves now...

It has been fun, aggravating, heartbreaking and now....deeply dissapointing hanging on to the last shreads of the democratic party and to this democracy.

The kool-aid has been drunk by too many. The democratic party needs to be dissassembled to fix it.

How can we keep on beating our heads into the wall when there will ALWAYS be the few that will tips the scales in favor of the GOP facists?

I will keep writing and I will keep singing...but I feel I can no longer hang out here anymore. It is so clear that the "Democratic" party does not really care about this country. To ignore the party base for so long. Losing to the right time and time again as turncoats side with "the enemy" in fear of public backlash stops today for me. I no longer want to lend my support to an organization that lacks charachter, conviction and purpose. And is filled with just as many self serving liars and media whipped fakes.

This was the last battle I fought for the Democratic party.

Fuck you, chicken shit faux democrats. You have pissed on the heart on soul of your party for the last time.

I cannot compromise my VALUES any more supporting rightwing apologists.

The next battle I fight will be for America.

Anyone who wants can visit me at http://wherearetheweapons.blogspot.com, comments are welcome so are submissions. I'll continue waging my battles from there.

2. I think Stevens would rather die sitting on the bench
rather than have Bush pick his replacement.

4. what will you do for the dems that did fight?
It wasn't the whole dem party that let us down...it was a bunch of self-serving professional politicians. There are still heroes in our party.

But if you want to go, then buh-bye. It takes a really tough person to handle politics in the real world.

5. Ya know what? My ancestors built this country....
Edited on Tue Jan-31-06 12:13 AM by Viva_La_Revolution
after they stole it from some of my other ancestors... and that blood still runs thick in my veins.

You think some blue blood aristocrat pansies are gonna win over my ancient native and pioneer blood? Strong lines, all 6. Yes, six lines of fighters.

We've been through this before, and we can do it again.

Democrats? Republicans? those words mean NOTHING to me at this point.

This is my country, my home, and Today is a good day to die!

Revolution!

6. Progressive Democrat Party Call
Time for the progressives in Washington to lead the rest of us and build a new party.

The Progressive Democrat Party

Let the centrist Democrats form a super majority with the Republicans if want, they are anyway. Why do we have to part of it. I don't want to be a part of it. All the legislative issues we wanted have failed anyway. We are at a war with a country that posed no threat. We are soon going to see our constitution be whittled away by self serving greedy conservatives and a handful of conservative democrats.

I'm not giving up. I'm just being realistic. Our goverment will now be offcially conservative and the opposition has no choice but to really oppose.

I will be making calls and writing letters to progressive democrats in Washington.

The time has come for a party split. Progressive democrats can more effectivly leverage our numbers if we take the 20 odd senators and 80 or so reps and form a new party with better dicipline and a unified party platform.

I fixed the link.
