How many progressive Democratic voters are gong to bitch after Passive Pelosi™, Slippery Steny and Hardly Relevant Harry Reid ram telecom immunity down the collective public throat, but then pull the “D” lever in November, not just for their particular Member of Congress, but for Democrats as a party?
You know the answer.
Lots.
You’re enablers.
And spare me the bullshit about electing Republicans by voting Green.
In the middle of the Gilded Age, Greenback Party and Populist Party voters didn’t buy that bullshit. They kept voting populist as James Garfield
And eventually, starting with William Jennings Bryan, Democrats started incorporating elements of the Populist platform
Did Socialists back down from supporting Eugene Debs in 1920 for fear of Harding becoming president, even though Debs was running for president from a jail cell? Hell, no, and he got his best showing ever.
Did millions of Progressives shy away from voting for Henry Wallace in 1948? Not at all.
Send some love to Cindy Sheehan in her campaign against Pelosi. Don’t “enable” Democrats any more.
