Freedom, truth, love, beauty.
Enough!
Now Pelosi is asking for a handout to Ford, GM, and Chrysler. WTF?
No!
Instead of pandering to your pro-union base, point the finger at the capitalist senior management! Seriously, this is why people who should be voting Dem shy away: national-level Dems are insane.
Pelosi and the people talking to her have learned nothing—NOTHING!—from President-Elect Obama’s campaign and looming administrations.
Both parties face a civil war in the next 4–8 years. The GOP has to deal with the literally insane neocon/theocon extreme right-wing. The Dems will need to reconcile being in power with the consensus-seeking, though netroots-born, Obama and the dirty hippie, baby boomers in the House and Senate.
I have to listen to Sen. Conrad on the drive home saying essentially “I voted to give Sec. Paulson $700 Billion no strings attached, but now he’s using that money as if there were no strings attached and that makes me unhappy.” bullshit. And when I get home I see Google News say AIG execs took their second plush corporate retreat using my money since their bailout was approved?
What. The. Fuck.
Senator Conrad: you should have taken the job at the OMB because Senator Elect Hoeven is about to clean your fucking clock.
