(18,124 posts)I have never airbrushed anything about our Party or it's missteps and mistakes. Our Party is still afloat so those you say allegedly jumped ship must have been from a faction in our Party and DID NOT cause any sinking of our Party, thank god.
I just don't like the manner in which it seems a small minor faction with minor leaders in our Party keep making these bombastic claims of being right and sponsoring programs that Democrats have been fighting for our members for a long, long time. Not as socialist-democrats but Democrats of the Democratic Party.
When that faction's members and leaders are flying all around the country tearing down our tried and true candidates and Party, my state candidates included, unsuccessful by the way, that does not stand as loyalty to our Party when the faction is so small as to be almost inconsequential in affecting direction of our Party and not have been able to effect change because the Democratic Party members back and have always been backing what said faction has claimed as new and improved. Also shown as not true. I noticed for a couple of generations now, at least with my introduction to the SDA in college, in the 70's it has always been the SOS dressed up and lipstick put on it.
Divisiveness and denigrating our Party does not help in these perilous times which certain factions and leaders seem to want to exacerbate by trying to drag down our Party instead of uplifting our Party as the majority members of our Party ARE doing. Bye bye
