Spite their face to cut their nose. Typical Democrats. They LOVE to lose.
Stop being selfish and weakining Obama to win a over a law no one cares about.
Kos, Moveon.org and MYDD are trying to weaken Obama because he won't toe the line on FISA. They want to make Obama filibuster the bill. As I said about the Muslim ladies, this is selfish and counterproductive. You are willing to lose the war just to win a battle if you support pressuring Obama.
Basically, it puts Obama in a lose-lose situation. He either filibusters it and supports the terrorists, or he goes along angering his base, which then The Right points out to independents that he supports people who support the terrorists. Just knock it the fuck off, let it pass, and then when we have both chambers and the White House we can go back through and drag everyone up on capital hill and throw them in jail. STOP WEAKENING OBAMA AND HELPING MCCAIN.
Everything Obama does between now and November is the greatest possible thing ever thought of. He walks on water. This is how Republicans win. You do not detract, ever, from your candidate. You have to swallow your disgust and disdain for Obama, because any amount you bring him down increases the likelihood of a 3rd Bush term...which we can't afford. Obama is right and John McCain is always wrong. It is time to be partisans, but speak to The Right and independents and try to pick them off. You have to speak their language. Bringing down Obama is counterproductive. As I said...anyone who thinks it is worth it to bring down Obama for a shortterm gain on FISA needs their heads checked.
This is why Republicans always win....Democrats eat their own. Daily Kos has a front page article that says it is the left's job to fight Obama on FISA.....it is almost like they want to lose. I include all the public financing BS in this as well. My tax money shouldn't go to reject politicians.
When Obama chastises Black males for lack of family involvement. Do you see African Americans doing back fits trying to bring the house down. No. They keep their disagrement quiet but they will back him 100% to get him elected.
Democrats need to think the same. Democrats will do anything to LOSE. Lose this election. You may as well go to bed. It is over.
