Forty-five thousand people die from lack of health insurance each year, and Republicans and Joe Lieberman, are doing their best to kill them. It is time to admit it. They won.
Bring on the new age of McCarthyism, as Republicans role Congress in 2010, impeach Barack Obama, and persecute minorities, gays and lesbians, and roll back abortion rights based on their mandate in the 2010 elections. Perhaps this needs to happen, so that Americans who blow off the manic screams of Glenn Beck, will finally realize that this type of right wing extremism represents a clear and present danger that is piped into the rooms of millions of households daily.
Perhaps, when the Republicans fuck up the nation even more than they did in the Bush years, it will be easy to pass progressive legislation. Because corporations will be enlightened by how much they fucked up the nation, and not devote millions of dollars to opposing a progressive agenda. If I wish hard enough, but do nothing, maybe it will all be better.
Yes, we just need a magical leader to descend from heaven, whose mystical spirits of leadership cause even Republicans and conservadems to vote with him, and the left not to abandom him at town halls filled with hate filled crazies. We need someone with some secret, mystical PR plan that causes Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, and the rest of Fox News to see the light.
Lets blame President Obama, but lets all give the Republicans a free pass, because after all, they are Republicans. A solid 40 Republicans are voting against, and opposing every effort at reforming health care, but lets blame the entire Democratic party for the actions of someone who is not even a Democrat, Joe Lieberman.
Finally, lets not blame ourselves for our collective inaction, and refusal to put pressure on the Republicans. Instead, we shout out and attack Democrats, but give those who would openly celebrate the death of health care reform, a free pass.
