Woah.

I read they do nothing. I read here they are spineless.

I am a Democrat and I sure as hell know they are fighting for me and our Democratic family. That may make me the odd person out, yet it is a fact.

Thanks mcar. I vote for Democrats.

keep an eye on Medicare and Medicaid as well. We all know that's next in the GOP's cross-hairs.

Do they live in mountain caves without any of the modern machines that help us find information easily? No newspapers or books? No phones? Are Democrats required to visit every individual dwelling to explain what they are doing, otherwise they do not exist?

That may have been true a few years ago, but unless one is watching Fox, one see Democrats being interviewed on a daily basis.

16. Dems are doing this and much more, but some fact challenged folks want to pretend otherwise.

If I’m being honest, and I’m about to, those saying otherwise are serial critics of Dems who cannot be satisfied. Several of which thought Trump was a better choice over Hillary. Seriously, they have zero credibility at this point.

There’s really no reason to feel a need to defend Dems. We’re on the right side of things. Like my friend says, shit be cray.
