Why do Democrats always have to apologize for telling the truth? Boehner IS boxed in by the Tea Party. The Tea Party people ARE extremists. The Republican spending cuts ARE extreme, and are designed to hurt the poor and middle class, who constitute the majority of Americans, Tea Party members included. No big revelation. No conspiracy. These are the Democrats’ talking points because they are honest. In this age of twenty four hours news cycles, second rate media reporting, and Twitter-head Democrats need to stick to simple, concise talking points, like the Republicans do, because the American public no longer has the patience to digest anything but sound bites.
2:16 pmIt is about time the Democrats starting talking on point, taking a page from the very effective tactics of their extremist colleagues across the aisle.
Honest? This is delusional! They can't see the inflation in food and energy? The middle class sees it. It hurts the poor even more.
They have been calling the GOP extremist for ages. The GOP is, at best, being reactionary to their radical, crackpot schemes.
They try to portray themselves as mainstream, but they are actually quite radical. From a seditious undermining of our foreign policy since Vietnam to the nonsensical Libyan intervention, they've been bizarre. From failed Keynesian economics in the Great Depression to chronic deficits and the failed porkulus, their ideas are crackpot and idiotic. The GOP leadership needs to call these fools what they are.
I wonder why they buried this story in a blog? /s
