I hear there is a lot of bitching and complaining on Daily Kos today. I hear some think we should abandon the Democratic Party.
If it is some Kossacks desire to do so, fine. It is (or used to be) free country, and as such, anyone can do what they wish.
I just have one request.
Get the fuck off this site and never ever come back.
This is Daily Kos. It is website started by a Democrat. And this Democrat once described this site as a place where we rant about Democratic politics and Democratic politicians. This place was envisioned as a place where we discuss Democratic candidates and Democratic policies, positions and politics.
Implicit in the expected ranting was the notion that we would rant about our Democratic leaders in Washington, but never with the intention of harming the party but rather helping the party. To get a spine. To make the right stands. To make the right decisions. To chose the right (er ah left) fork in the road.
The ranting was never intended to lead to talk of abandoning the party. This site was never intended to be a site where we talk about forming a new party or help in the destruction of the Democratic Party. This is not a place for Greens to talk about helping the Green Party.
So if some Kossacks wish to speak of their plans and desires to leave the Democratic Party, please include in those plans your leaving Daily Kos as well.
I will not have it.
It is a large place, this internet. Many disgruntled former Kossacks have left to start their own blogs. Feel fucking free to follow them.
So if you want to abandon the Democratic Party, let me kindly show you the door, and do not let it hit you where the good Lord split you.
What are you still doing here?
Get the fuck out.
