Okay, The Sellout of the Public Option is a Corporatist Move.
Edited on Fri Mar-05-10 03:31 PM by 20score
But what the hell is the excuse for even thinking about moving the trials back to military commissions? That’s just pure cowardice. Like selling out Van Jones. Do we have to start whining and calling names to get what we want?

Beck, Limbaugh and the right wing pull BS straight from their asses and the Democrats in power fold like a bed sheets.

RW: “Death panels!” “Kill Grandma” “Communists fascist!” “Hilter!”
Power Dems: “What can we do to help vindicate your ramblings?”

WTF!

Like my post from a few hours ago.

But I'm in a hurry and pissed off.

5. A lot of people are too lazy to read longer, thoughtful posts.
So mixing it up like this isn't a bad idea!

7. Oh, now, see, you used the word 'corporatist' and that will have some here
furrowing their brow in a vain attempt to comprehend. How cruel of you.
