...heaven forfend that I interrupt your brief moment of clarity.
However, it is also clear from this post that you don't mean it. And instead are actually defending being crazy. So let me break it down for you.
WHEN A CRAZY LEFTIST SAYS: "Prosecute War Criminals"
THEY MEAN: "Petulantly whine about Democratic electeds refusing to engage in political grandstanding about unconstitutional political prosecutions of former Administration figures over non-laws and patently rejected legal theories."
WHEN A CRAZY LEFTIST SAYS: "Prosecute Wall Street Criminals"
THEY MEAN: "Petulantly whine about Democratic electeds refusing to engage in unconstitutional prosecutions of unethical, yet sadly legal, behavior on wall street. Don't lift a finger, even rhetorically, to help change those laws."
WHEN A CRAZY LEFTIST SAYS: "Principles" (edit: was Principals)
THEY MEAN: "Bash Democrats for dealing with the real world."
WHEN A CRAZY LEFTIST SAYS: "Hands off Social Security"
THEY MEAN: "Bash Democrats for calling the GOP's bluff on Social Security."
WHEN A CRAZY LEFTIST SAYS: "<Generic FDR Quote>"
THEY MEAN: "The man who imprisoned thousands of US citizens in internment camps based on racism is a REAL Democrat, whereas a President backing simple NSA signal intelligence under court supervision is, like, an authoritarian fascist to his core. (Let's not even GO into FDR's WW2 mail-censorship.) See, FDR was not pragmatic like all these Democrats I hate - no siree! He allied himself with racist Dixiecrat lynchers, but we've got PRINCIPALS PRINCIPLES you don't, so LA LA LA LA, I can't hear you."
WHEN A CRAZY LEFTIST SAYS: "I'm so mad Democrats don't listen to US!"
THEY MEAN: "I'm jealous of the way the Tea Party gets to control the GOP. Look how much more Democrats would be popular and could get done, if only we were controlled by our fringe the way they are."
Seriously, Sabrina, you've almost descended into a self-parody. Or maybe you did a long time ago.
