I read this earlier on the DU and saved it, (mostly because I felt I had to read it twice to believe it existenced, heheh):
"Even if we lose this battle today, WE STILL WON...

And let me be totally clear about this, I DO NOT think we will lose this battle.
But let's say, for argument's sake, that there are not enough votes to sustain this fillibuster, WE STILL WON and here is why.
We came together, all of us, establishment dems, progressives, DUers, Kossacks, etc., etc. Things looked pretty bad just a week ago and we spent some time crying, bitching, moaning, threatening, then we got over it. We put our emotions to the side and got to work.
Since then, we got some Senators to come out and lead the fillibuster. Against all odds.
We got true to the bone DINO's to change their minds about their cloture vote. Against all odds.
Those middle of the road, whichever way the wind blows Dems are LISTENING TO US. Against all odds.
In these past few weeks, and especially this weekend we have gotten a very important message out to our Dems here's that message: NO MORE.
You will acknowledge us. You will hear our voice. Whether you like it or not. This is a post-internets world and your old way of doing business is simply not going to work anymore.
But still the M$M toils away as the mouthpiece for fascism. Trying to discourage us at every turn. First telling us there would be NO fillibuster. Then came the two Senators from Massachusetts. Now they are telling us (without any facts to back up their claims) that there aren't enough votes to sustain the fillibuster. And we gave a message to the M$M too. That message is: SCREW YOU.
We aren't listening to your CRAP anymore. You can bloviate away, Tim Russert, nobody's listening. We're too busy calling and faxing our Senators.
So what does all this mean if Alito still gets confirmed?
It means we have taken the first step in taking our party and eventually our country back. We stopped letting the politicians and the media dictate the terms. We stood our ground and showed that this left-wing liberal moonbat Michael Moore wing of the party IS the party.
And no matter what happens today, we can never turn back. The battle has begun and we will prevail. It may not happen overnight, and it's gonna take a hell of a lot more than what has happened in the last few weeks, but it's a start. Now we know how much we all matter. We can never let some talking bobble head or some Democratic Party advisor marginalize us again. WE are the party. WE want our party and our country back. And we won't give up until that's what WE get.
So with all due respect, please step aside, Mr. Elmendorf (link). We have tried things YOUR way for long enough and YOUR way simply doesn't work. Let us show you how it's done. WE are what Democracy looks like.
So take a moment, everyone, pat yourselves on the back. And then get back to work. We have a Constitution to save."
The things losers must tell themselves. Denial is not for just anyone, you must be gifted to believe this.
MOONBAT LUNACY...they're all NUTS...
The leftists have been trying to wrap themselves in the Constitution lately, which seems like a poor tactic. The danger is that their more intelligent minions might actually read it...
Great post. Thanks for letting us see it. The DUmmies are so sad--they sound like 1905-era communists.
Yup, you all came together, pulled all your strings, shot your entire wad - and you got about ONE-THIRD of the Senate to go along with you.
True self-awareness is the beginning of wisdom. Or something.
As if anybody paying attention had any doubts.
An uplifting post though. As Rush says, when the libs are intent on self-destructing we should step aside and let them.
