about Democrats backing down including Jimmy Carter. After all: "you can't be the worst president ever without a little help ..."
Boy, does that say it all!

2. Ditto...every time the GOP feigns indignation the Dems back down. |
|
What is that all about? I loved it when he said Carter could build a Habitat home for Bush and tell Bush to meet him there and blow him! LOL!!

5. Too much truth...is there such a thing? |
|
Some points well taken. It seems the Democratic Party takes "the high road", trying to keep civility and honesty in what they say and do (for the most part). And Bill is right, they cower like sheep when the right wing neocon machine churns up and accuses them of "hating America" or "hurting the troops" or all that other illogical bullshit. Enough is enough. Can we start a NEW party of Democrats with balls?

6. New Party of Democrats, With Balls!!!!! |
|
Idealism is a fart, if it is without strength!!! Why are Democrats such PUSSIES!?!?! Civility is BULLSHIT when someone is breaking into your house and trying to steal all that you value. Democrats, BE IN THE FACE OF THE HACKS WHO ARE IN YOURS!!!!! CHILDREN, ESPECIALLY BELLIGERENT CHILDREN, NEED DISCIPLINE AND GUIDANCE. These reich-wing hacks are nothing more than children with arrested development, trapped in the bodies of adults. So, DELIVER THEM THE DISCIPLINE AND GUIDANCE THAT THEY ARE ASKING FOR, by having the balls that a parent has to have, and standing up and fighting for what you believe in, and getting angry! How hard can it be to stand up for what you believe in, when what you believe in actually makes sense!?!?!? We've already done the homework of putting in the effort to explore the world, keep an open mind, and figure out what makes sense. NOW PUT IT INTO ACTION.

Except for the last part, it was good.
This "Dems are cowards" routine plays right into the Rupubs hands. Maher and Olbermann should be ashamed for letting their emotions take control to such an extreme instead of using logic and looking at things objectively.
Seriously, when your majority depends on the centrist/conservative "Blue Dogs" in the House, and LIEberman in the Senate, what do you seriously expect to have done?

9. I refuse to lower my expectations to that level. n/t |
|
The Dems in Congress that put together this mockery of a funding bill and voted for it are indeed spineless cowards and hypocrites, not Maher and Olbermann. Get real.

And therefore should not speak on such matters, for you only prove yourself the fool each and every time.

14. He spoke truth: Dem leadership acts like pussies. |
|
It is not Maher that plays into the hands of repukes, it is the Dems (or at least leadership) themselves, who quite frequently prove the right wings very point: we often don't defend our own country, and the enemy we most often don't defend our country from is them.
