Dear Mr. Moore:
You are such a disappointment for the stupid diary you posted this evening.
How certain are you about what your are talking about? Or is it possible that the MSM gave you ammunition to stir up controversy?
What was the purpose of your diary?
What have you accomplished except smear and stir up shit when the facts are not even accurate per the UAW President, Bob King - @3:10 mark.

Partial transcript starting at 3:12 mark:
Bob King, UAW President on CNBC:
Q. ...about Rahm Emanuel saying "fuck the UAW", what do you make out of the Emanuel episode...
Bob King: If it was not for Ramh Emanuel, if it was not for the Administration, if it was not for President Obama and the Democratic Leadership in the House and Senate, we would not have had an Auto Industry today. Million of people would have been out of work today. They have done nothing but try to help middle class America. I appreciate the Administration, I appreciate what they have been able to do for our membership and workers in general.
Q. What are you going to do about Emanuel's Situation though?
Bob King: It is a bunch of BALONEY and a diversion. Let's look at the facts...What did they do good for the Auto Industry? Yes, they did. Did Rahm Emanual played a role in that? Yes, he did. We appreciate him.
Mr. Moore, do you know that the mid-term election is less than 2 months away and the best you can do to help unite this community is spewing unfounded rumor on Rahm Emanuel, the right hand man for the Administration?
I understand you don't like the many progress this administration has done including the Detroit Auto Industry recovery. Let me tell you something, we are sick and tired of self righteous purist people like you and Cenk coming out here and dumping your shit to add zero value using a drive by diary.
When we need to be united to win in November, your self righteous ass is going to only divide us if you are pondering the same shit you did not so long ago about your target, Rahm Emanuel.
Did you see the President's speech in Milwaukee to rally the troops on the ground? You should because you would have held pressing the publish key if you had. He was kicking ass fighting the Republican'ts when you are fighting a fellow democrat that has contributed in a big way to the success of this Administration.
If you think you can come in here and throw your vitriol to undermine the Administration using Rahm as a punching bag two months before the mid-term election, don't expect to be praised with open arms because we ain't having it anymore. The gloves of off. For too long some in this community have been shitting a nasty bile and I personally have had it and fucking enough is enough.
I don't suppose you know what this site go through day in and day out to understand the struggle to stay united fighting venomous rhetoric like yours. There is time and place for everything and your timing for publishing this piece of garbage drive-by diary, for a lack of a better word, is "FUCKED UP".
Please stop being a professional pout rage artists. It don't add much value in electing more Democrats this November.

CQ: Obama's Winning Streak On Hill Unprecedented by Don Gonyea
In his first year in office, President Obama did better even than legendary arm-twister Lyndon Johnson in winning congressional votes on issues where he took a position, a Congressional Quarterly study finds.
The new CQ study gives Obama a higher mark than any other president since it began scoring presidential success rates in Congress more than five decades ago. And that was in a year where Obama tackled how to deal with Afghanistan, Iraq, an expanding terrorist threat, the economic crisis and battles over health care.
Unprecedented Success Rate
Obama has been no different from his predecessors in that he's always ready to send a firm message to the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue as he "urges members of Congress" to come together and act. All presidents demand specific action by Congress — or at least they ask for it. But when you look at the votes of 2009 in which Obama made his preference clear, his success rate was unprecedented, according to John Cranford of Congressional Quarterly.
"His success was 96.7 percent on all the votes where we said he had a clear position in both the House and the Senate. That's an extraordinary number," Cranford says.
One more question to you, Mr. Moore: Who do you thing should take credit beside the POTUS on this unprecedented success rate of congressional votes? It would be Rahm Emanuel whether you like it or not.
