Social Security belongs to the American people. It is not Obama's to bargain with.

78. Are you saying you are not a real Democrat and onlty faux Democrats voted in 2010?

All you appear to do is insult every Democrat you meet that does not agree with fiscally conservative policies, unless "emoprog" is some sort of flattering term.

A Democrat suggests a primary, preferring the primary winner to be a "real Democrat".

You can disagree with the poster's belief that Pelosi should be primaried and his/her interpretation of her agreeing with cuts to SS as making her less than a real Democrat. Your response did not do that, you used a straw man to describe any such "real Democrat" as an "emoprog" and suggested that such a Democrat no longer has power, you then painted your straw man as sitting out 2010, blaming what I assume by your insult to be progressives for faux Democratic centrist positions that disillusioned voters. You also appear to feel quite confident that the center right new Democrats have lots of power and don't need progressive Democrats. A bit arrogant for a third way fluffer that only has the power to disrupt and insult.
