9. because blue dogs are so deferential to progressives?

Unless it's campaign season, blue dogs lick the hands of Republicans and their corporate masters and shit on progressives.

Everybody is getting tired of this ''the problem in Washington is divisiveness'' shtick. The reality is we vote for different parties to get different policies, and when blue dogs enable conservative policies by either pre-compromising half the store away or just completely agreeing with the GOP from the get go on some issues, they are saying our vote doesn't count: we only have a choice between conservative policies or half-conservative ones. That isn't a choice at all.
