When McCain was booed and jeered by the CPAC crowd, I thought about a post about how the Republicans were eating their own. The more I thought about it I started thinking there might be as many cannibals on the Daily Kos as in the Republican Party
Yes, I admit to a good dose of schadenfreude when I see 100 year McCain get booed by his "base." I was still feeling that good feeling when I read this post by Meteor Blades.
On one of my diaries, someone speaking about a moderate Republican party said it's about the "issues." I agree 100%. If we can just stick to the issues and avoid dogma, we won't end up shooting ourselves in the foot.
After 8 years of Bush, there's a lot to be frustrated about. However, anger and hyperbole won't convince anyone. All they do is feed into a vicious cycle that ends up with us consuming each other rather than uniting behind the issues we truly care about.
Let's leave Hannibal to those who oppose health care for children. Let Hannibal lose on the warmongers.
I like Daily Kos. I'm also a vegetarian.
