How often have you heard that bulllshit recently?
I sure as hell have been known to complain that we appear not to have one.
But no longer do I say that. Where, in the past, you'd hear from thsi one or that one with some sort of half-baked, mostly wishy-washy plan or vision, in just the last few weeks, several individual Dems and groups of Dems have been out there with plans. Not plans detailed to the finest level, but strategies and concepts. Well articulated and well concieved.
What IS true, however, is Dems have little in the way of a voice.
So I'd like to ask every Dem who makes a plan from this point forward to include one more point.
Break.Up.The.Media
Independent media, in my view, is the biggest need our country has to ensure we remain a democracy. I, personally, see the voting machines as a secondary issue. Important, to be sure. Critical, even. But until the media tells the truth - not biased news, right or left - nothing will get solved that the media owners do not want solved.
So, to say the Dems don't have a plan is pure and utter bullshit.
What the Dems **really** don't have is a voice. Simply because the media has choked it off.
