I see the flame wars are going on again. To leave the party, or not. They've failed us by not blocking Alito.
Let me say, I think the Democrats on the Judiciary committee failed to articulate what's wrong with Alito, but I don't think there was ever a serious chance of denying him a seat on the bench.
But one thing they'd better get straight is that we don't want to hear their self aggrandizing. We want to hear them grill candidates.
Face it folks, you go to another party, all you do is ensure another Bush, another Republican Senate, and another Republican House. Have you forgotten Nader already?
What we need to do is get some
better Democrats. Ones who speak intelligently, in short sentences (not Kerry or Kennedy), don't have baggage (Hillary Clinton), don't put their foot in their mouth (Howard Dean).
Most of all, this party needs a fucking platform. Jesus H Christ, when are we going to hear what we stand FOR?
So, folks. Bitch, complain, and get out there and work for our party.
