Anyone who votes against a critical Democratic bill such as the upcoming HCR bill

5. Loyalty oaths, praise for neocon-era policies, support for neocon occupations...
the tone on this site certainly has changed since Obama got into the WH.

16. I'm sorry. But you can't throw a lace doily over this and go about
your business. It's the basis of what our country is supposed to stand for, freedom of choice. If we start punishing our people for not being in lockstep, well, that didn't go so well sixty years ago in Europe.
