I know I have been especially hard on Kossacks of late in my comments and I have to say, it has been really bothering me about how negative Kossacks are on America, Americans and the resilient ability of our country to survive and prevail in the end...
There have been a host of diaries of late that all seem to say the same thing to me:
- America Sucks
- Americans (Non-Minority Male) all Suck
- There is nothing to be proud of in America
- No American History or Tradition is to be celebrated because Americans mistreated some minority.
- Democrats Suck
- Obama Sucks
- The Economy has not improved at all since Obama took office
- No positive legislation has been passed nor has the Democrats in power tried to pass any meaningful legislation
- America never prosecutes any crimes that are important to Kossacks
- Nobody in America is any good unless they are a true 100% Liberal and/or Progressive on every and all issues
I am just having a real hard time with all the negativity and frankly whining going on at DKos as late which is why I have been so harsh in my comments. I thought after the election we would come together to fight the common enemy...but it seems to be getting worse.
The Doom and Gloomers are getting Doomer and Gloomier and the CTs have been getting more hyperbolic by the day. Not sure what to do, there seems to be no common ground unless you have a circle of Kossacks patting your negative diary on the virtual back with mindless Tips and Recs.
In the end, we are moving away from the DKos original purpose of electing more and better Democrats to a 2nd "Liberal Oasis" where liberals get to whine and complain about how their desires are not getting addressed and that we need more purity tests at DKos and for our elected officials...
Well I am a generally positive person and I work hard for my success and do not exploit anyone in the process. I have hired 2 new people during the recovery which are not in the statistics since they are doing contract work for me but making good money. I see a lot of positive change and since liberals don't support it, much of it will likely be ended and/or curtailed by the Republican process because of our lack of support legislation.
So lets see what happens over the next 6 - 12 months.../peace
