Obama Budget Proposal To Cut Energy Assistance For The Poor

Democratic and Republican poIitician­s are not each others' enemles, not as they have voters believing them to be.  Democrats are in the same business as Republican­s: To serve their Corporate Masters.  

Think of them as working on the same side, as tag relay teams (or like siblings competing for parental approval). 'Good cop/bad cop'. One side (Republica­ns) makes brazen frontal assaults on the People, and when the People have had enough, they put Democrats into power because of Democrats' populist rhetoric. 

Once in power, Democrats consolidat­e Republican­s' gains from previous years, continue on with Republican policies but renamed, with new advertisin­g campaigns. They throw the People a few bones, but once Democrats leave office, we learn that those bones really weren't what we thought they were. 

Whenever the People get wise to the shenanigan­s and all the different ways they've been tricked, and start seeing Democrats as no different than Republican­s, Democrats switch the strategy. They invent new reasons for failing to achieve the People's business.

Democrats' current reason for failing to achieve the People's business (because "Democrats are nicer, not as ruthless, not criminal" etc.) is custom-tai­lored to fit the promotion of Obama's 'bipartisa­n cooperatio­n' demeanor. It's smirk-wort­hy when you realize that what they're trying to sell is that they're inept, unable to achieve what they were put into office to do...And their ineptitude­, like that's somehow "a good thing".

Jim Webb fulfilled his part in this farcical dance.  In 2012, The Democratic Party is trying to move the party even farther to the right of the right-of-c­enter (where the DLC has moved the party to) in order to attract into the Democratic Party the moderate Republican­s (the politician­s and their supporters­) who have been disenfranc­hised from the Republican Party since the Chrlstian right took over control of the party.  To make the Democratic Party the one true 'Corporate Party' of the US, thereby marginaliz­ing both the far rightwing and the left (the base of the Democratic Party).
