12. Democrats don't need help from the press

Fri Mar 14, 2014, 09:47 AM

Mar 2014

The base is so demoralized by lack of action by the Democrats, they most certainly do not need the press to help them out.

Harry Reid uses the unemployed as political theater - hell, those 50+ votes by Republicans to overturn Obamacare are evidently very appealing to Reid. He's decided to use the unemployed to do the same thing! Hell, he's going to vote AGAIN on unemployment just so he can send the bill to the republican House for them to kill it.

Nancy Pelosi - she's just plain MIA. The woman hasn't said word one in MONTHS.

And, as for Obama, but excuse me for pointing out that it took 6 years for him to realize that some folks aren't getting overtime? Nice of him to notice. Finally!

The Democrats are doing just fine without any help from the press demoralizing their base.
