The Politics Of Capitulation

[Me.]

What the hell are the dems so afraid of? That the Glen Beck's, teabaggers, birthers, Cons or racists won't like them? Well, its never going to happen. The best defense is a good offense, so suck it up dems and how about delivering some good counter punches. Bill Moyers said it the other day, we need fighting instead of finessing.

1. Hard to tell if some people are just retarded or masochists

the way the current White House is working

[Me.]

2. Retarded?

[WeDidIt]

3. Democrats elected a weak president

and put a weak Senate minority leader and a weak speaker of the house in charge of the Congress.

So overall, the Democrats are weaker than a tiny screaming minority.

4. I Don't Think Obama Is Weak

I'm not sure if it's that he's lost his footing for the moment or we've been sold a bill of goods. Wed. will tell a good part of the tale. As to Reid, how did he ever get to be leader, it becomes an oxymoronic words when used in conjunction with him.

5. When an idiot who's lost 57 advertisers can beat him

when a tiny minority that scream can drive policy,...

HE'S FUCKING WEAK!

[Me.]

6. He Needs To Stop Listening To 'Advisers'

There's too much Clinton 'triangulation' going on in that WH. However, the buck stops with him so it's coming down to put up or shut up time on a whole host of matters. He's either the change or he isn't.

7. I don't think they're afraid of anything.

I think they're merely bought off. It looks as if they never intended to get a public option. They started their negotiations from that position because, it seems, they intended to bargain it away all along.

They're not afraid, nor are they spineless. It seems, they're mostly corporate tools, just like the Republicans.

I dare them to prove me wrong.
