I have bitten my tongue long enough. It's time for me to go Stewart v. Cramer (or Jackson v. Snakes). I have a list of demands and they ain't pretty and may not be very popular. But here goes.
- From this point on, Blue Dog Democrats will be referred to as moderate Republicans.
- Any Democrat who uses the term "circular firing squad" to describe Democrats demanding that Democrats act like Democrats will now become a moderate Republican.
- Any Democrat who creates or joins a "coalition" aside from the Democratic caucus will become a moderate Republican.
- Any moderate Republican (formerly known as Blue Dog Democrats) will face a stiff primary challenge in 2010 and beyond.
Call me harsh if you like, but I haven't spent the past decade of my life working toward what we have now, a Democratic Congressional majority and a Democrat in the White House only to see us piss it away.
The people elected Democrats to act like Democrats, not Republican-Lite. We have the chance to change this country for the better, in both the short and long term.
When we reached out to them they basically told us to go f*** ourselves. So enough with this bi-partisan outreach and taking the high road bullsh*&.
Let's all come together, cut the crap, and push the agenda that the American public asked us to enact!
Who's with me?!
