148. why i hate the DLC
i'll tell you why i hate the DLC ...

Al From, i call him schmuck boy but you don't have to, wrote an editorial on the DLC's website just before the invasion of Iraq began (or was it just after it began?), saying that all those baby boomers who were protesting the war were just doing it out of "nostalgia for the 60's protests" ...

yes, i was merely trying to recapture the joyful days of youthful protest ... what a schmuck !!!

and I haven't noticed any subsequent apologies from Al since we old 60's nostalgia types have been right on every damned point about the invasion of Iraq ... all schmuck boy Al offerred us was support for "the President" ... well, Al, where are all the WMD's? how do you like the death-a-day "post-war" strategy? how do you feel now about alienating "old Europe"?

The DLC did absolutely nothing to oppose the invasion ... maybe next time they'll just keep their mouths shut instead of insulting one of the party's most active constituencies ...
