In reply to the discussion: Moore and Krugman piss on the ACA decision [View all]stupidicus
(2,570 posts)but it is often characterized as "pissing" regardless of the intent behind stating of "facts"
I'm not gonna explain myself or this post in its entirety here again, but suffice it to say the subject line was hyperbole, and the point was to not the fact that it should be okay to criticize the policy pursuits and results of our dem leadership without fear of being charged as something tantamount to in some measure, traitors to the general cause.
For example, if I wanna criticize BHO's "kill list", I should be able to do so without reading about how I'm really just trying to undermine his reelection chances, etc. Every criticism like that shouldn't need to be accompanied by extensive qualifications to establish my general support and intent to vote for him anyway, much like K&M did in supporting the victory over the ruling despite having a relatively low regard for the ACA itself. I and many here will do the same for BHO's victory should it occur in Nov, despite having a pretty low regard for many of his policies. It's all about wishing and trying to make him better, just as acknowledging and complaining about the inadequacies of the ACA seek the same goal.
