Miss Nancy and ‘Gutless’ Reid this is how you deal with Republicans. This is how you fire up the base and tell the gotdamn truth to the America People.
I’ve criticized Bill Clinton for many things but my hat is off to him for this. This is the way Democrats need to talk about the criminal scum that are the Republican Party. The Party of Thieves, Liars and Murderers.
Take it and stand by…this capitulation will not be ignored. Action is in the offing. I will keep you posted as to the state of play.
Flash Update: Here’s what Matt Stoller had to say from the scene of the crime:
- Lots of good candidates are saying the right things about the Moveon condemnation in the House, but not a lot of incumbents are. As it happens, I was on the Hill today, and it’s stark just how disorganized the Democrats are. Most of them had no guidance on how to vote, and just went on instinct without having seen the amendment. The whip operation was either out to lunch or actively encouraged members to vote for this measure to ‘make it go away’. I could see either conventional wisdom pushing the vote this direction or an explicit Clyburn-Hoyer decision. It doesn’t matter anymore.
Just frikin’ pathetic. ‘..whip operation out to lunch…..’. True Democratic ‘Leadership’….Pelosi? She needs to go along with Hoyer and Emmanuel. Period.
I, A.Citizen, believe candidates with strong, sound progressive stances deserve our support, particularly in primary races where they are opposed by folks who have been proven to be the opposite of progressive. Your early dollars can make the difference. Please make a contribution to this critical cause.
