"Democrats have no balls. We are gutless pushovers. Etc etc."
I can't stand hearing that.
Yeah, Republicans have balls. The kind of balls that comes from taking someone else's money and gambling their life savings on one spin of the roulette table. Wow, some balls.
We have a massive "moral hazard" here. Republicans/Bush administration can take breathtaking gambles with OUR DAMN COUNTRY - and not have to pay any price.
Bush bet the house on the Iraq roulette. And he fucking lost everything. had he won, he'd have been king. He lost and...
He doesn't go to the poorhouse. No, the media tells us to support the troops, and the repubs tell us not to change horses midstream.
Some balls.
Don't you see: the system, the game is utterly rigged in their favor? This is not a matter of Democrats not having "balls". I beg you to save your ire for the Republicans. Who are the moral equivalent of an embezzler betting and losing in Vegas, but getting to live in the penthouse at Mandalay Bay because they're such big players.
