No Filibuster, No Re-Election for Blue State Senators
OpEdNews.com ^ | 1/30/06 | Rob Kall

Posted on 01/30/2006 5:14:01 PM PST by LdSentinal

I'll keep this short and bitter. Every god damned blue state senator who failed to sign on to the Alito filibuster MUST be fought in the primaries and replaced. The Democratic party has failed the rank and file members.

It is time to take back the Democratic party from the right wing, loser hacks who have been fumblingly, failingly controlling it and the candidates put forward. I can't believe how many people tell me that they believe the DLC and right wing democrats are really Republican operators.

IN the OpEdNews.com/Zogby people's poll I just ran in Pennsylvania, about 29% of the respondents were liberals or progressives. With 51 percent of the respondents being democrats, that means that 58% of the democrats are liberal or Progressive. We ARE the majority.

If a stab-us-in-the-back senator in a blue state failed to suppor the filibuster we MUST find strong, tough candidates to run against and BEAT them. We must raise money for candidates, even if they are not running in our states.

We, the Progressives and liberals must define the issues. We must tell our elected officials what to do. This was the last straw. We need to draw up a list of these traitors to democracy and take them out of the political arena. I bet they'll end up on some corporation's payroll.

We need leaders who will go to congress and not be cowed by the seniority system. They represent constitituents who are just as important as the senior members. So F**K the seniority system. F**k Barack Obama for selling out the people who put their trust in him.

Here's the list of the "Democratic" senators who betrayed us.

Akaka (HI), Baucus (MT), Bingaman (NM), Byrd (WV), Cantwell (WA), Carper (DE), Dorgan (ND), Inouye (HI), Johnson (SD), Kohl (WI), Landrieu (LA), Lieberman (CT), Lincoln (AR), Nelson (FL), Nelson (NE), Pryor (AR), Rockefeller (WV), Salazar (CO)

Ad Bob Fertik, of Democrats.com, said, "There was no reason for this betrayal. We only needed 40 of the 45 Democrats to sustain a filibuster."

Some of them hail from solid Red states. We can't blame them. But the ones from blue states and purple states should be treated like wanted criminals and removed from their positions of trust and power. It's not having people who call themselves democrats when they fail us when it matters most. These lowly cowards should have treated this fight like a war and supported the filibuster even if it meant taking an election bullet. I believe the action would have gained them votes. It would have forced Bush to submit a candidate who would actually be good for the US, unlike the unworthy liar he's appointed.

I would say that we are now in a state of war, but the right wing has been at war with the american people for a long time. Today, we learned of the traitors in our midst. We know what to do with traitors. And we need to act fast.

I truely hope this happens.

Nothing would make their downfall happen quicker than a bunch of nuts beating the pants off of long time democratics in the primaries.

I want the REAL dems to come out of the closet and be their loving communist selves for all the world to see, I predict a landslide in 2008.

Notice in the pictures what a happy sunny smile JRB or Condie Rice or GW Bush or even Dick Cheney has? Ever notice when a Democrat try to smile, they all looked so pained, forced and phony? Interesting character observation to be made in that trait.

I'm not talking about all pictures. I am talking about the pictures taken when the Conservative/Republican is smiling or caught off guard. You can time photos or doctor them to make them look bad. There is a reason why the Leftist pictures you see are usually presented in such a way to make the Leftist look good and the Righty look bad.

Liberals are master propagandist with a lousy message. Conservatives have the message but seem pretty inept at playing the game. Protest Warrior is a great example of the Right learning to fight back. The Junk Journalist are careful to ONLY use positive pictures of Protestors they screen out the 95% of rabid hysterics to find one little old granny with a funny sign. That is just one example of how the Left manipulates data and images

We just got home from our grandson's birthday dinner. This is a great dessert.
