2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumALL HANDS ON DECK!!!
Just saw online version of Ed Show and piece on Immigration Reform. Perhaps you did too. According to Ed in this segment, the Tea-Freaks are going to do everything possible to kill this. It could be like the health care debate that got really nasty. All the conservative neo-con nut cases are going to be on this. They know there are F'd (as a party) if this passes. Which makes all the better for us to get it passed. I hate to think of political debates as a "war". But thats how the tea freaks think. That is their M.O. They are just mentally sick people. What else can you say about them. So they are going to utilize their sick, perveted slangs, and made up shit to get their way. I don't know how you counter sick, perverted people in a political debate. I'm just letting you know they are heading for the battle lines.
So what do we have to do?
Fight fire with fire!! I would like to think the teabaggers--at least most of them--have fallen into a hole and have been stuck there ever since. But nothing is certain. So what we have to do is be on our J-O-B to win this. Again, I don't know how you counter these scummy bottom feeders, but you have to think of something. They are stupid and uneducated--at least the pawns at the bottom are. I believe we have ways to fight back and win. There are some very bright and talented people on our side that are capable of fighting off the crap that will be thrown at us. I hope they are getting prepared to help pass this. If not, they should start getting ready now.
When do we start?
NOW!
I'm posting this because I want to get into the "red zone" and score. This is "a big F'ing deal. Didn't mean to inject a game jargon into this, but didn't know what else to use to phrase this fight.

... how bat-do-do crazy and bigoted they are. There you go... start calling them the Bigot Party. They are simply driven crazy with all the reports of how they are going to be in the demographic minority soon.

(22,000 posts)How about getting the filibuster rules changed? Unless we do anything that comes out of the Senate is going to be watered down drivel.
Then it will be watered down even more to even have a slim possibility of passing the House.
RI, VT, CA people need to start mass emailing Reed, Leahy, Feinstein, and Boxer.
