Does anybody remember the Left?

66. Yes, let's look at this by all means.

The proposed stimulus was at least 2/3 too small in toto and a majority of that inadequate measure was completely ineffective, non-stimulative, tax cuts (the only prescription in the republican handbook).

Gay Marriage is great, if not decades too late, and kudos to Vice President Biden for forcing the issue.

The ACA is not much more than an incredibly lucrative blowjob to the insurance industry that, even though it still hasn't yet been fully implemented, has resulted in increased costs, dozens of lawsuits, and hundreds of exceptions for businesses big enough to make political "contributions" while small businesses are trying to figure out how to pay for it along with the low-income workers that are lucky enough to not be part of the 15 - 20 million just written off and don't even figure into it.

Gun control is nothing but a sop to quell a momentary blip in awareness caused by white suburbanites being slaughtered. Once they've got whatever useless measure through and the slaughter goes back to the poor and the brown in the neighborhoods we don't live in, we can all go back to ignoring the real problem.

Undocumented immigration follows the same familiar pattern, keep the virtual slaves working to make the rich richer and wages down, then hold out a phantom carrot for them, give it a nice, and ironically appropriate name, the Dream Act, then tell them that if they are willing to sacrifice their kids and go to the back of the line, then maybe someday they can stay legally.

As for the women, well fuck them their only girls anyway. Don't believe in the magical sky daddy? Fuck you too. Want to exercise you right to control your own body? Too bad, so sad, sucks to be you. But some booze and get a prescription, they pay the freight around here.

As for START, we don't need nuclear bad guys to frighten you into bankruptcy anymore, we have the perfect new bogey-man, the terrorist. So perhaps maybe someday we will reduce our capacity to end all life on earth to 10 or 15 times.
