In reply to the discussion: Obama, Democrats Push to Make Bush Spying Laws Permanent [View all]ProSense
(116,464 posts)38. "How dare you. "
What I have written on these boards is clear. I want Americans to stand up together and let these craven politicians know that we will no longer tolerate being sold out and our rights taken away. I want this President publicly confronted by the media and by American citizens and forced to answer questions about supporting these policies that are antithetical to everything this country is supposed to stand for. I want an antidote to the corporate media that ignores every single step our politicians are taking toward corporate fascism and a loud, vocal, vehement American response to decidedly un-American behavior by a sitting President and both Democrats and Republicans in Congress. I want us to be so fucking loud in our protest and our criticism and our outrage that they cannot ignore us anymore.
Now, Prosense, defend this crap. I dare you.

Get on it. You have a lot of nerve acting like anyone who challenges your constant and meaningless rants are standing in the way of you getting what you want. Go and publicly confront the President. Who is stopping you?
