The Public Option -- UP, DOWN OR SIDEWAYS?
DADT -- THIS YEAR, NEXT YEAR, NEXT DECADE, ANOTHER COMITTEE?
Main Street over Wall Street -- MORE PROPING UP OF GEITHNER/BERNANKE OR REAL REFORM?
Accountability for Torture -- WE LIVE BY THE RULE OF LAW OR LET'S FORGET THE PAST?
Bipartisanship -- CUM BYE YA OR KICK-ASS?
Immigration Reform -- THIS ELECTION CYCLE, NEXT ELECTION CYCLE, WHEN MITCH MCCONNEL REVEALS HIS LATINO HERTIAGE?
Green Jobs -- FIRE VAN JONES?
I am sick in tired of hearing "unnamed sources" on Politico, Huff-n-Puff, WaPo, etc. say the WH wants this or that or that or this.
I am tired of hearing, "Make me do it", when a) I don't know what "IT" is and b) the Democrats don't seem to want to do it anyway.
I am tired of getting DSCC emails asking for my money with no clear deliverables attached.
EARTH TO WH -- JUST SAY WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT. What you stand for. What you will go to the mat for.
THEN WE CAN THEN DECIDE TO GET BEHIND IT OR NOT. TO PUT OUR HARD EARNED TIME AND MONEY INTO IT OR NOT.
I don't like pushing against ropes, nailing Jell-O to trees or herding cats. I would rather bust-up against a GOP wall of obstructionism than push slinkies back and forth with Democrats.
At least with the GOP base you knew what Bush, Cheney, Rove wanted. Torture, profits, lower taxes on millionaires, getting rid of pesky regulations, GOD, war. If you donated $1 million you got your Pioneer status, your inner circle C Street gig, your hand in writing industry regulations.
What does MoveOn get when we raise $1MM or $100MM? A hand in writing progressive regulations? Time with the inner WH circle? crickets?
I'm not hearing you WH...
PS. actions speak louder than words.
