(D)s Split Between Those Who Have Morals and Those Who Don't
It's an easy dividing line, especially since those remaining in conversational society still have brains: who's willing to let criminals go free and who's been fucked over enough times to know there's no dealing with repigs.

Just sayin', and also bringing it to the forefront of conversation, is there anyone remaining that didn't look at the pathetic repigs in Congress opposing health care reform and think "God Damn, there are some loser muthafckers"?

NO, there isn't.

1. Come on you late late-nighers and West-Coasters, Lay Into It
I'm not going to take anything personally, this topic is WAY WAY beyond anything personal.

2. i agree with your subject line
Though I didn't quite follow the brains part. Surely morals and brains aren't dependent on each other.

But yes, there is a certain line of expediency in politics, where morals die.
It's a choice though, no matter what anyone says.

3. I don't think anyone in the Obama administration think that they can deal with Republicans.
They are really trying to deal with the Blue Dogs of the House and the Ben Nelsons of the Senate. As they should so negotiate, since these centrist lawmakers, as unfortunate as it is, end up deciding whether a bill could pass.

That's really the moral dividing line. Will progressives screw the uninsured by killing healthcare reform since it doesn't punish corporations enough? Or will they vote for a bill that will tremendously help the uninsured? That line is clear and unambiguous.
