Radicals want to have it both ways.
Radicals on the right have obstructed and thus have affected things. I think they have had a big negative impact. I could point to some 300 or so bills they filibustered and who knows what would have been done by Democrats if they still had a majority in the House?
Radicals on the left, by contrast, have done absolutely nothing. I don't expect they ever will be functional, or accountable for their dysfunction.
Hey if the radical left wants to organize and take over the Democratic Party I can forget the cognitive dissonance. I can forget the fact that the radical left bitches and moans about the organizational necessity of raising funds, and then wants to take over the structure that was built by moderates on that very organizational necessity. Organize, by all means, and take over.
But hey we both know that's never going to happen. Instead of blaming others who are out doing things, be good enough to do what has to be done, or own the dysfunction.
