(32,139 posts)No way to deny the list of assaults I posted, and no response when I ask for significant recent actions *for* the people.
You have nothing except desperate lashing back with nonsense accusations and denying the serious, serious problem in our party. *Of course* Obama is better than Romney. You can do a search of my posts and see that I and others have written that many, many times. That's what's so convenient for the one percent.
It is so easy to get people to vote for right-wing, corporate, neocon, and police state policies when the only other candidate promises even WORSE right-wing, corporate, neocon, and police state policies. You see how that works?
We have a serious problem in our party when we are repeatedly fed vague, flowery, flag-waving posts about patriotism and America, but requests for evidence of significant recent policy on behalf of the people are met with vitriol and personal attacks. We have seen this happen before when a party was purchased for the one percent. This happened to the Republican party some time ago.
Now, how do you stop it?
By not playing along anymore. By standing up against right-wing, corporate, neocon, police state policies no matter who is pushing them. And by pushing the one who is supposed to represent the people into actually representing the people. We have to demand that the money come out of politics, and we have to clearly label what is happening to us. That's called being a real Democrat, and how you save the Democratic Party.
But then, you knew that.
