Despising Democrats

I am back, because I must vent. Yelling into the air only scares the cats.


I am a Democrat. In a few weeks when early voting begins, I will vote for lots of Democrats. However, a small part of me will hate doing it.

Why?

Simple. The party is full of stupid, wimps.

In 1986 when the Iran-Contra scandal was revealed. It was known the Ronald Reagan traded arms for hostages and then the money was illegally provided money to anti-communist Nicaraguan guerrillas. Congressional Democrats took impeachment off the table. Ollie North's shredding and their own wimpiness stops it.

From Jan. 2001 through Jan. 2009 they failed make any effort to stop or reveal a single GW Bush executive power overreach or even stop the idiotic tax cut during wartime via filibuster in the Senate. Investigations to even consider if impeachable offenses were committed when the Bushies started data mining via telecoms? Nope. They didn't even bother to stop efforts to undermine habeas corpus or prevent the retroactive lawsuit protection for the telecoms.

Though they managed to pass some stimulus, a health care bill and a middle class tax cut that no one seems to remember. Now, the wimps rule again. It is just too scary to vote to keep the taxes on earnings below $250,000 at current levels and raise it for the earnings above that level. Why? Because Republicans will say nasty things about it or, in my opinion, the Democrats in Congress are just stupid and wimpy. They'll vote on it after the election.

Watch the losses in November and remember how much they worked to earn them.
