A week’s gone by without one iota of coverage from Daily Kos on the Democracy Spring protests. Are you afraid that reporting on it might lead to a telling discussion of big money in politics which could negatively affect the prospects of your favored presidential candidate? Let’s see how dismissive you can wax about the insignificance of the protests.

Last week I commented that you were becoming the CNN of internet news. Now you’ve gone even further down that rabbit hole. Daily Kos, better grow a pair, and I’m not talking about horns….

It was more than refreshing to see someone come along with a real potential for upending the Lesser of Two Evils paradigm that’s been wired into our presidential elections for so long. Mr. Sanders, with his forthright platform and his authenticity, gives America a respite which Hillary Clinton never can.

How I eagerly checked my email every morning, waiting for the Daily Kos Recommended to appear. Then a certain sophomoric article was rehashed three times on consecutive days which took the Sanders candidacy to task. Its title is somewhat similar to the one for this blog — couldn’t even wait to put it in the Classics….

It’s a mighty thin disguise, Daily Kos. You’ve drawn a line in the sand and taken a step back from it without realizing that one more step behind you is the void, the place into which those who sell out to evil fall. Suicide jumpers on bridges close their eyes before the final step, but you’ll step off backwards with your eyes wide open. Don’t worry though, because Hillary is already behind you.

Along with Hillary, Daily Kos, you’re now part of the problem. You well know what I’m talking about. Time to move away from you and continue stepping forward. I’ll give you a few days to redeem yourselves before I unsubscribe.
