All these years and months, whenever someone complains about something they dislike that's been done by Obama and/or Congressional Democrats, a certain faction rises up and fires back, "Why aren't you attacking the Republicans?"
So now, when we're ALL attacking the Republicans, that same faction is rising up to attack their fellow DEMOCRATS on this board.
I seriously doubt that anyone here did NOT vote in 2010. We're all political junkies, we're all seriously engaged and informed, we're all politically aware, and we ALL VOTE. We all vote in every damn election, and we vote for Democrats. And if we complain about the Democrats we voted for, well it's our damn right to push them to act on our behalf when it looks like they're catering to the interests of lobbyists and moneyed donors over the interests of the voters - us.
So, I really have to wonder. Why are certain posters here more interested in creating divisions among us at the very moment in time when we are all focused on taking down a dangerous enemy?
There's something very wrong with this picture.
