Okay, I will admit, I have a bias, I am sick of our ideas losing, and I do not care who will take and run with them, as long as our ideas are winning. I also think our past leaders have taken us for a ride and trashed our beliefs for their own gain, and you and I have let them.
See, I think our ideas are WIDELY embraced by America, but we have let our current and former leadership take us for a wild ride, a ride that benefits them and hurts us.
Think about it, do you whore around on your spouse? No, of course not, then why did we accept this in our parties leadership? Are you a militant homosexual? Then why do we promote that agenda? No, that was not a comment to stop homosexual rights, but why can we not have some middle ground where we have a recognized domestic relationship with the RIGHTS of a domestic partnership, without stepping on the religious views of marriage? We would like extremist, not moderates making step by step progress towards our goals. In four years we make the next step forward. INSTEAD WE HAVE STATES PASSING LAWS THAT CREATE INSURMOUNTABLE BARRIERS TO OUR AGENDA. WH IS THE FUCKING IDIOT NOW! WE ARE, AND WE MAY NEVER GET HOMOSEXUAL RIGHTS PASSED NOW, CAUSE WE WERE DUMB ASSES.
Why did we EVER nominate John Kerry with his horrible testimony before the senate and being from the far New England area. I am a from the south, and far northern folks can not get southern votes, there is to much of a culture change, we all wish it we different, but it is not. EVERY TIME WE RUN A NEW ENGLANDER WE LOSE, WE NEED TO TAKE A HINT. WE ARE THE EDUCATED PARTY, WHY DO WE DO STUPID SHIT LIKE NOMINATING A NEW ENGLANDER?
Think about Social Security, it is going to fail, the only mathematical way to make it work is to cut benefits and increase taxes. We can raise taxes on the wealthy to increase revenues, and cut benefits by delaying when people can collect. However private accounts could help lower income folks save and grow a nice family nest egg, IF IT IS DONE RIGHT. Think about a minority family, someone who never had a lot, grandma starts saving in a private account, she spends less than she saves, in just a few generations they can have large wealth created, meaning we helped them get our of poverty.
Why are we not arguing on HOW to fix SS, instead of IF we fix SS? We are the party of the middle class, and THAT IS WHO THE LOOMING SS CRISIS HURTS, WE NEED TO BE DRIVING THIS. Just how in the hell did we let the fucking right wingers take this issue from us!!! If we fix it the RIGHT way we help the middle class, if we fix it THEIR way we help the money monopoly in America!
Think about religious beliefs and morals, WE ARETHE PARTY HELPING THE POOR, HOW IN THE HELL DID WE GIVE UP MORALITY TO THE FUCKING RIGHT WINGERS!!!!!
The Republicans sure as hell are not going to change the current political climate, cause it benefits THEM, so if it is gonna change, WE HAVE TO CHANGE IT.
Would it be such a big deal to simply say that if someone will whore around on their wife they should not be our leader? We have great leaders who are faithful, why not use them? Maybe they we can start looking the "immoral left" badge (that part REALLY sucks).
Thanks for letting me vent, sorry if I ticked anyone off, but at least here I can vent and in public keep up the strong BLUE DOG DEMOCRAT face.
