Circus.
Just got an email from an old friend. He's a former Republican who is presently unaffiliated, but his sister is a major winger. Seems the sister is having a field day monitoring DU and sending links to all her winger friends so they can also enjoy the libruls' angst. Dear Sister is apparently 'dancing for joy' that Democrats are turning on Obama en masse. He generally just deletes her stuff without replying, but he wanted me to know what was being said. Wonder if she's part of the troll infestation.

It's incestuous, of course, but the Repubs don't mind things like that.

2. One thing it shows is that after all the bullshit about...

"free speech," holding feets to fire, Truth, Justice, and the real American way, once again we haven't figured out that our complaining about our own people rarely changes any of our people, but does encourage the other side.

They suck it up in public and fight together. We spend more time fighting each other in public than fighting the other side.

On health care, the points are...

ACCESSIBLE and AFFORDABLE

How we get there is secondary, but so much energy is spent on quibbling over details that they can just sneak in and torpedo the whole thing.

on edit-- I rec'd it, how many others will?
