51. look at you castigating Democrats for worrying over a bill that doesn't have enough support
Sat Nov 6, 2021, 05:06 PM

...namely Manchin's, for one.

It's entirely possible to 'celebrate' the passage of one bill, and worry over another.

This is an unnecessary slam on good people here who aren't required to wait a day to defend the next plank of Biden's agenda. I guarantee the bill's detractors aren't taking a day off.

And you've conflated all of these people into your little box of bias. This is rancid.

What's outrageous about this is how you, yourself, took time out to poke at progressives this afternoon in another thread. Now you come on like you're inviolable and without guile. You found a little wedge to dig at progressives, and now you want comity?

What a joke. This is just another slam on progressive members here.
