It's my party and I'll cry if I want to.
Is this the new Democratic Party agenda?

The party of war and illegal occupation--check.

The party that helps fascists to destroy the civil liberties of Americans--check.

The party that hates the idea of people having health care, unless the insurance companies and pharmaceuticals are *very* well taken care of first--check.

The party that loves corporations (and their money) first and foremost--check.

The party that thinks destroying the American middle class is a good first step--check.

The party that promises anything to get elected, but does nothing once in office--check.

The party that believes looking the other way when crimes are committed is the brave and patriotic course--check.

Except for two or three symbolic issues, collaboration with king george seems to be the only thing that IS on the table.

1. Darn Right
I'm filled with rage that the Democratic party has been destroyed and now stands for nothing, worse than nothing really. Are there two more sickening creatures than Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid? I think not.

People here like to call Dems weak. It's not weakness that explains their behavior, we now see who they really are, they generally agree with the direction Bush has taken the country, it's plain as day. The only difference being that they will throw the occasional bone to the common ruck.

Hope is gone and I am really mad about it.
