This diary is in direct response, not to the diary itself so much, as to the number of people who have recommended it. Below are my comments in that diary (which I will not link to), because I simply would like to be on record, and provide a forum for other who want to do the same, for being AGAINST that which would undermine the power which the Democratic Party is lined up to obtain in November, and/or anytime thereafter.
In response to the full frontal assualt on Ben Domenech's plagarism:
I plagarized when I was at college, too (gasp). Also, drank LOTS of beer and (gasp) smoked a lot of fucking dope, too. What's the fucking point? College kids are nukcing futs? Who knew!
Gotcha politics, at such a low level, is not a game we want to set a precedent for given how fucking marginal many dems are. When they get power in November, we won't like the lowest common denominator anymore.
I've not signed up for, "By any means necessary". This is truly a short sighted diary, and I am saddened that the "community" would recommend it, just on the basis of the "community's" self-interest alone.
We cannot fight injustice, dishonesty, and hypocrisy with our own injustice, dishonesty, and hypocrisy.
