So, the repubs have decided to go up against their real opponents, the liberal bloggers, since it is we who are inflicting the blows upon them and it is we who are dragging those poll numbers way
way on down.
So, now they are back on the traitor gig again. I was reading the oh-so-sophisticated, milder Weekly Fascist about their opinion on the outing of the DLC, the mole repub-lite apologists that most people, left and right, loathe, if only because they have no loyalty and no coalition except for Washington lobbyists who back-stab liberals every chance they can.
Anyhow, some everyday thug at green footballs or whatever they're called tried dusting off the ole liberals-are-traitors gig, referenced near the end of the WS article.
So, yeah: Know thy enemy.
And of course my reply is that repubs are really the traitors, mostly for their turn toward fascism and against the Constitution.
Those libertarian repubs, now a powerless discredited laughing-stock, will have to turn to Pat Robertson and the anti-immigrant loons and join in on the impeachment party! Time to go grab that pitchfork!
The problem is, Bush corporate coddles while New Orleans is drowning and everyone gasps... then they will start to break out the old Rovian dirty tricks and name-calling... no one is in the mood for their shit this time around and the traitor game has repercussions, especially when you get Bush and Cheney back out there doing it soon when their backs are firmly against the wall in 2006: the public knows that they do this when times are rough, that game is up... what Fascistco doesn't understand is that their bullying, their traitorname-calling is a game that everyone can play.
It is traitorous to send any and every job overseas without question, without grace, without dignity.
It is traitorous to send US troops into lying wars under lying pretenses (Taliban had it coming though). Massive emerging proof to that effect is quickly re Iraq, making this claim a frightening legal reality that can't be ignored much longer.
And of course, it is traitorous to expose covert CIA agents to exact political revenge. Massive proof of this also.
The DLC is nothing but a shell outfit for repubs, put into place by the republicans so that they had a hammer to wield against their real political opponents, while the actual repub office-holders stand back and laugh while the DLC cuts up the liberals.
Now is the time folks to lay it on the line for Kos: time, money, whatever you got, it's time to throw downt the gauntlet. The DLC can go to hell: this town ain't big enough for the 2 of us.
