The Bad Actors in the Democratic Party
I'm sick of watching progressives like Kucinich or Nader get their teeth kicked in for standing up for progressive principles.

The reason why Nader ran against the Dems or Kucinich is voting against the HCR bill is because too many Democrats are bought and paid for by corporate interests.

Why the fuck should we all get hijacked by the Republicans' in Democrats' clothing? And how can some DUers be so stupid as to call Kucinich and Nader Republican enablers ... when the very act of voting for this corporate fuckhole of a bill is enabling the corporate agenda.


You want to know why Nader ran in 2000?
Because corporately-funded Democrats became ashamed of supporting public education.Because corporately-funded Democrats fucked over the union worker in favor of corporate trade bills. Because, despite rhetoric, corporately-funded Democrats have virtually the same foreign policy goals as Republicans.

Guess what we're going to see in 2010 and 2012 if the Dems actually pass a bill forcing us to give our money to health insurance companies?

8. The reason Nader ran against the Dems is the same reason you had a financial collapse
and are mired in a long recession.

5. Now we have the very corporations that bought off Democrats
torturing people.
http://www.tennessean.com/article/20100312/NEWS03/3120343/CCA-condones-beatings-lawsuit-says
The next headline you read will be a private corporation i.e. Xe/Blackwater has tortured Americans.
While we stand around saying 'fuck Nader' our country is going down the toilet.

7. If they continue, 2010 will make 1994 & 2000 look good!

If NOT Nader, it WOULD have been someone else.
Vacuums WILL be filled.
Its Physics.

I laugh at how the "Centrists" make wimpy little Nader out to be some kind of Superman who single handedly knocked the wheels off the entire Democratic Party.
Nader was NOT that strong.
The "Centrist" Democratic Party was that WEAK.
