1. A lot of people do not realize the Liberals and Progressives
making noises of unhappiness and disapproval especially
of policies, helps the President. It shows the Right
he (Pres.) must hold firm because of his own Party.
It gives the President cover.

Complacency hoping not to create problems for the President
only helps Republicans. They read this as Liberals
and Progressives agreeing with their policies or at
least not objecting. GOP then pulls President further
right. You can not blame them. They are in this to win
whether we are or not.

6. you're second paragraph describes typical repub tactics
accuse someone of doing exactly what is you are doing and somehow it becomes the truth or holds some merit.

5. All we need do is look at how effective the opposition is at
holding their elected ones in line. We are not as organized or funded.
