I had dinner with friends last night and they are all politically savvy but don't read blogs like the dailykos. I had a compelling desire tell them about what I have been reading lately. They knew who Abramoff was but didn't really know about all the data mining, the recess appointments, the people in the justice department in charge of the Abramoff case, the pentagon info sharing linked to the entire NSA data mining operation and all the other things we've been reading about and getting sick about on here.
I didn't know where to begin and I wasn't prepared to give a seminar. The same thing will happen tonight at dinner with a different group of friends. I realized that all the shit we've been reading lately about the Republicans was making me almost nauseous everyday. I used to enjoy it but now I hate it and I want all Americans to get nauseous just like we do.
We can't do it. Only elected Democrats can. The other day I read that Rep. Senator Sam Brownback was upset about the wiretapping without warrants. Who gives a fuck about what Sam Brownback thinks. Is it only Republicans who can be upset? They seem to be the only ones who can complain about Democrats and the only ones who can complain about Republicans. What are the Democrats supposed to do?
I think we need to let all elected Democrats know that THEY need to get off their fat comfortable asses and complain the daylights about the Republicans. They need to tear the life out of Bush and criticize him for his arrogance, his stupidity and his hypocrisy. They need to do that every fucking day on every TV show and not let impudent pricks like Chris Matthews control the agenda.
We cannot support them if they don't fight and they haven't been fighting. They need to know how angry we all are and you all can't be afraid of be labeled disloyal to the Party.
So many of you were loyal to the very end to Kerry and he was walked over with spikes because we didn't complain enough. Our friends will believe it when they see in on TV, not from us, so we have to get our Senators and Congressmen to get on TV and control the agenda and speak about Bush, Cheney and the Republicans with ANGER and DISGUST.
Forget about convincing our friends and even about get out the vote. Get our men and women in Washington to scream their heads off about unauditable voting machines and Democratic districts where voters had to wait hours to get to the voting machines. They should be screaming about data mining while a piece of shit like Karl Rove has a very high security clearance and is right there in the White House to abuse anything he can find. They should be accusing Bush of failing so badly in preventing 9/11 that he needed to lie to us and start a war in Iraq. They need to discredit Cheney and his remarks that if we had been wiretapping without warrants we would have stopped 9/11, when there would have been a more direct effect if we had a president that wasn't a lazy stupid SOB who wasn't afraid to read presidential PDBs. Or what about Bush's fucking nerve to go one vacation for 5 weeks after we were threatened in a way we were never threatened before. Remember, that lazy bastard never had a meeting on terrorism!
We have to get Democrats to discredit John Kerry for fucking up the last election and how he didn't have the nerve to challenge Bush. They need to talk about Kerry's stupid strategies that resulted in a huge loss against such a flawed, incompetent and lying president. They need to put Kerry in the past and ensure Americans that the rest of the Democrats aren't a chickenshit like he was.
