25. OFA and DLC are dancing on the grave of liberals
only too happy to be realistic about the benevolence of corporations and oil drilling and war and wire tapping and union busting and privatizing schools with their sights on social security. Yep, they gave us health care that bails out the insurance companies and drug companies and they bailed out the banks while they continue to blame home owners for the mortgage disaster.

That's my Democrats. All the disaster messaging in the world can't wash the stains of blood of their ruinous hands.

Obama will tell you that you must get a college degree to "build a strong Amercia"

Meanwhile, colleges raise tuition 7% to 8% a year. So, kids take out loans from banks with even higher interest rates.

Then after you struggle between jobs and school, you graduate and 10 million jobs are sent to India and China.

You move back in and stay on your parents insurance policy till you are 26.

At least that was the plan until your dad got laid-off. Then they foreclosed on the house.

So this election as you vote democrat or republican know that both parties are working hard to get as much of your present and future wealth as possible while giving you little or nothing in return.

Keep voting for mainstream political parties, keep sending them money, keep telling yourself that we are only smart enough as a nation to deal with two similar political parties and things will only get worse and worse.

I am waiting for anyone to prove me wrong. Hasn't happened, never will.

This latest crop of democrats are the worst of the bunch a hybrid of neo-con and neo-lib - "they bring forth their love child THE CENTRIST".

Democrats are so out of touch and unable to lead. They are triangulating, twisting in the wind, constantly trying to behave like 1980s Reagan neo-cons.

They cannot and will not lead. They won't stand up to the right wing of both parties because they are the right wing of both partiues, they have no unifying message other than "we don't suck as bad as the other guys". I've lost respect for people who continue to vote for people who do not offer them representation.

We need a new political party to give "establishment" democrats and republicans the beating they deserve.

Or is America just too stupid to understand that democracy can support more than two parties?

Disgusting. Completely and utterly disgusting.
