There is a real tide turning lately

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

of Democrats being disgusted at our Democratic Reps. All you have to do is read these boards lately. And most of the people posting messages of shock, surprise, loathing, and horror at the Democratic majority and the leadership are longtime, passionate DU'ers, not new trolls or disrupters despite what some might say.

Nancy Pelosi's interview on Sunday with Wolf Blitzer will probably cause even more friction. It might be a flashpoint. I think at some point, even she will not be able to ignore the groundswell of outrage and calls for action.

History is the enactment of the inevitable. Critical mass is approaching. They are all about to careen out of control.

1. I'm MAD as HELL and I'm not going to take it! CONYERS allows Rove to walk FREE?

I think this is the breaking point for me.
I'm MAD as HELL at Conyers and the House Judiciary Committee members.
FIRE them ALL.

3. What? They couldn't get inherent contempt out of committee?

Is that what you're saying?

2. I have a folder titled "predictions" and I'll put this one in there.

I don't think things are about to careen out of control, but you are welcome to your opinion. I'm not all mad as hell and bent out of shape either. There has always been somebody or another who claims the sky is falling.

5. they do worse crimes then ted bundy

in the final analysis, no matter what Barack does, this knowlege we will have forever, and none can deny it: the men running the nation are cheap, pathetic, vicious brutal bullyboy thugs lacking even the conscience that Ted Bundy possessed (Bundy never ran for elective office with the idea of destroying the whole enterprise!)
The gopigs giggle at hyperbole, but this is not hyperbole. Since goldwater time, the rightwing has SCHEMED on how to defraud the american people, by exploiting the peoples' crudity, racism, greed and ignorance/stupidity. That is what junyer bush has shown us, has proved to us. They used our 'sins' against us, all while denouncing others for trying to do what they were in fact doing...
What you say is right, in that the longer THEY get away with the criminal activity, the worse the crimes must become, and one day, we are gonna kill them off like the plague of rats they are (hyperbole, lol)

6. What's so lately about it?

I was disgusted with them even before Nov. 2006. They've simply confirmed my opinion of them since.

One good thing though: at least they're not GOP. Those assholes are even worse.
