This "Reform SOCIAL SECURITY in Private" freaks me out as much as Dick's Secret Energy Task Force.nt

Talk me down from the ledge. And Now? When everyone is all about the spill?

This is fucking crazy.

:scared:

1. Back away from the ledge. WE have to grab the New Dems, DLC and ConservaDEMs by the throat and

tell them in no uncertain terms that if they continue to sell us out.

WE WILL SHOW THEM THE DOOR.

2. +1000 +++ n/t

3. And why, exactly, would they believe us?

All they have to say is, "Fine. Vote Republican, or don't vote and let the Republicans win." and we'll all fall right back in line.

That's been the way of it for a couple of decades. So why would they take such a threat seriously?

4. Yep. OMG YOU COULD HAVE HAD MCCAIN !!1111

:eyes:


The left has nowhere to go

[Vincardog]

5. WE can run and support REAL liberals in the Primaries and if they don't win let the DLC and GOP

fight it out without us. I do not see much difference in POLICY between them.

6. With the gov. owned by banks, lobbyists, wall street, corporations and

highly monied interests through political contributions and lobbyists, and some of the moronic supreme court decisions, nothing much is going to happen to prevent this from happening again.

The country has been functioning like the Keystone Kops for years, eventually it will go over the cliff. I think liberal/progressive democrats could make a significant difference, but how do you get the enormous amount of money out of elections. IMO that is the root cause of a lot of gov./election problems. And the MSM makes out like a bandit. The system by default runs against many of the citizens and is compounded often by voter ignorance and gullibility.

7. See post #1. Stop cooperating with the thieves

[RKP5637]

10. Yep, if we could somehow do this en masse that would certainly do it!!! Last

election the internet was significant, my hope is eventually it might bypass MSM. If people saw more investigative reporting today like Jack Anderson used to do, for example, more of the BS would be exposed. The current MSM is complacent with the money trail as recipients.

9. God LOVE you! I needed to see those bold black letters. I mean, I thought we elected a man who

fucking KNEW better.

11. I've not said much on DU, but I've been disappointed. I thought this was going to

be a rerun of FDR. There was so much enthusiasm. I suppose someone will call me an Obama basher, but I'm not, I'm just saying how I feel, kind of let down, and I know a lot of dems. that feel the same.

8. So much for transparency. nt

12. Can *ANY* "I've been with BO since the primaries" explain how he could do this to little old ladies?

:cry:
