The DLC: Do they have a different philosophy than centrist and moderate [View All]

[Zorra]

Democrats?

Do all "centrist" and "moderate" Democrats believe that corporations should influence/control government?

Do all "centrist" and "moderate" Democrats believe that invading Iraq was necessary and justifiable?

It seems to me that most self-proclaimed "centrist" and "moderate" Democrats have almost exactly the same basic ideology as Democrats on the "left". There seems to be miniscule difference between these 2 "subgroups" of the Democratic Party. It seems that many "centrist" Democrats distinguish themselves from "left" Democrats simply because they are anti-choice, against gay marriage, anti-illegal immigration, for less gun control, or a combination of some or all of the above.

This is not really any basis at all for an ideological distinction from Democrats on the "left".

"Centrist" Democrats often also distinguish themselves from "left" Democrats because they consider themselves fiscally conservative. However, almost all "left" Democrats are far more fiscally conservative than the most fiscally conservative republican, so this in itself is not a valid reason to make a distinction between "centrist" and "left".

And it does not seem to me that "centrist" or "moderate" Democrats believe in corporate control of government or pre-emptive war.

But the DLC D'sINO, who are, like Republicans, not really "democrats", but are "corporatists", believe that corporations should influence/control government, and believe in war for empire.

Those are the main, if not only, difference between DLC D'sINO and Democrats. Unfortunately, that is basically the same ideological difference between a Democrat and a republican.

So what I am saying here is that the difference between real Democrats in the "center" and on the "left" is actually a myth.

The actual difference lies between Democrats and the DLC DINO.

And this difference is completely irreconcilable. No good Democrat, or democrat, is ever going to accept government control by business interests.

Democrats believe in democratic government: government of, by, and for the people. Business interests are secondary to the needs of people, and have no place in influencing government.

The DLC D'sINO believe, like republicans, in government of, by, and for business interests. People are secondary to the needs of business, and should have influence in government only when people's interests and needs do not conflict with the needs and interests of business.

So, "centrist" and "leftist" Democrats: Since we believe in the same essential ideology, let's acknowledge our common democratic ideology and goals, stop arguing about very minor differences, and either get the DLC D'sINO to disavow their corporatist, pre-emptive war, republican ideology, or ask them to form their own party.

All 5,000 or 10,000 of them. Big wup.

DLC corporatist D'sINO actually make up an almost insignificant relative percentage of the Democratic Party, except that an inordinate number of DLC members have taken over unelected "leadership" positions in our party.

For example, how many DUers actually belong to the DLC?

The DLC D'sINO have duped us and are causing unnecessary infighting among us.

Let's just dump the DLC so the overwhelming majority of us can all unite as democrats and DEMOCRATS to fight and end this republican corporate government.
