Every now and then, a proposed action by Democrats is criticized---by Democrats--as "risking further

polarization" of the country.

It seems to me that, when the screaming wild-eyed barbarians are hacking at the gate with blood in their eyes, we in the castle should oppose them in any manner available without worrying about "this might piss them off".

Arrows, spears, boulders, boiling oil----whatever it takes.

Short and sweet. I used the analogy in another thread regarding the evil of the Cheney family. Yes, Dick lied us into war but every House Democrat, minus one, voted to allow W to invade Iraq. With an autocracy they don't have to take that vote.

Whatever the Dems do will piss ‘em off. When your beliefs are not based in reality, I have no respect for you. With a lack of respect, anything goes toward stopping them.
