Little-Noticed Bill Could Make It Harder To Challenge Foreclosures

Thursday, October 7, 2010


You need to get your head out of your @$$.

Put down the Kool-Aid, step away from the faxed talking points ("Sound like the old trailers for Japanese horror films of the 1950s, like Rodan -- 'OMIGOD, THE REPUBLICANS ARE COMING!!'").

The fear campaign again that we thought we were getting rid of when we put Democrats and Obama into power.  No more pre-election Osama B!n Laden tapes leaked.  No more 'overseas travel advisories', and non-specific terr0rist threats plastered all over the media in the weeks before an election.

We were supposed to be done with all that; Democrats were supposed to be better.

The fact of the matter is that once teabagger Scott Brown got elected, he moved to the middle, is in the Republican Caucus (he ran as a Republican) votes like one, and said, "Sarah Palin who?"

Sarah Palin herself governed Alaska as a moderate Republican, which is no different than any DLCer governs.  If you're not afraid of Evan Bayh who is to the right of moderate Republicanism, you have no business being afraid of Sarah Palin.

Liberals need to take control of the Democratic Party and start educating the American people on what liberal policies are, explain them in detail and then discuss why they are the solution.  Liberal policies were, after all, what made this country great, built the American dream and created the greatest middle class in the history of the world.  And then Nixon came along and wrecked it all to heII.

But that is going to take a while, and it's never going to be possible with the DLC controlling the Democratic Party.

The DLC is ideologically aligned with Republicans.  It's the old Republican party, before Ralph Reed delivered an organized Christian Right to the Republican Party.  Pro-corporate, anti-populist, pro-war, anti-civil rights, pro-police state, chipping away at privacy rights, abortion rights -- There's no defending that out of any Democrat.
