It is time for the Democratic party to BE righteous indignants and fight for moral causes!!!
Health care is one righteous cause: pursuing human rights and constitutional justice in addition to ending abuses of greed and war are others. TAKE ON the corporacrats and greed-mongers, head to head. CALL THEM WHAT THEY ARE: ANTI-DEMOCRACY, ANTI-JUSTICE, ANTI-SOCIAL ANTI-AMERICANS!!!

After all, THEY were the ones who waged/s war against a true form of democracy in order to profit GREATLY off capitalism in lieu of democracy. And, haven't we all learned that the Clintonistic compromises ended in defeat for a democracy "of the people"?

I want the freakin' bullies to be challenged, down and dirty, if necessary. Shame the amorals,...shame them into exile while FIGHTING FOR THE PEOPLE!!!

FIGHT!!!! FIGHT!!!! FIGHT!!!!

4. This nation's people is practically on its knees, already. If they fail to FIGHT for that people,..
,...the wholly-owned corporate-portion of congress will destroy this nation.

If they can't find the spine to fight while they have the reigns, they may as well be dirt for the barbarians to roll on,...as if they aren't playing dirt, in many respects, right now.

I'd rather they FIGHT and lose than compromise further and win. I'd be inspired by the former and disgusted by the latter.

5. I'm afraid
too many are already bought and payed for. As Bill Moyers pointed out, the only ones not owned, are the progressives.

6. That may be true of Congress,...but not ALL US CONSTITUENTS.
The Democrats ought to know damn well from the last two elections that their CONSTITUENTS are far greater than the corporate base,...that includes Obama.

Besides, winning a political race should NOT be more important than the battles needed to be fought FOR THE PEOPLE,...a people who make up the strength of a nation.

What the hell ever happened to the notion of "public service" required from public office holders? Maybe, that notion requires revisit, as well!!!
