Are you on crack, Rufus?

[Read more letters about this article: Here]How is the gop going to stop anything we put through? How? they have lost every election since 06. nov is going to wipe them out. They are going to be a slim minority. They cna only stand strong if they have the numbers. They did in the past, they do now (as the blue dog sell-outs might as well be rethugs). But nov that ends. Obama and the dem's will reverse the game. With obama at the helm the gop will be irrelevant for 30 years.
Bull
FUCKING
SHIT!
The Republitards were able to gum up the works back in 1993-94 and are doing it today. Why? Because of gutless wonders like Steny Hoyer and complacent morons who think all is well -like a retarded Dr. Pangloss.
Calm down, everybody. Take a breather.
I'm sick and goddamned tired of spineless democrats with severe Stockholm Syndrome who can't wait to get on their knees for the Right while gurgling "Oh it's not so bad!".
This is the gop's issue.
More bullshit. Whoever helps to pass this bill or does nothing to stop it is a scumbag who needs a primary challenger in the next election. It might be too late this year, but names need to be taken and these fucktards need to be removed.
If you want to hold someone responsible hold them resonsible at the ballot box. Oh, and your elected representatives, like obama.
I intend to.
but be careful with the demands. Obama has done an enormous amount of good for the progressive movement. We're about to take over. don't sell him out now, when we're about to win.
I would have voted for Lieberman or Hillary if I wanted that kind of bullshit. Besides, if someone lacks the courage to stand up for something during the election, they won't stand up for it when they take office.
Take the good with the bad. Hold him to account.
The two are mutually exclusive, moron.
But take it easy, take a breather and think about the big picture. Think of the grand sceme of things.
Take your Panglossian horseshit and shove it WAY up your ass! It's gutless worms like you that are the reason a million Iraqis and 4000 Americans are dead.

Bite my ass, Rufus!

[Read more letters about this article: Here]You couldn't be more of a troll if you lurked under bridges and molested goats.
What am I going to do about these scumbag Democrats who give the Republitards whatever they want? Let's see...
I'll withold my money and my vote from any candidate who doesn't try to stop this bill. I already told a DNC cold caller to fuck off when they asked me for money. Not one more dime from me. I'll also make it a point to support primary challengers against douche nozzles like Hoyer and Barrow and those other ball-free assholes.

Blue Dog? How about White Flag Democrats?
[Read the article: What Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and Fred Hiatt mean by "bipartisanship"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]These sniveling cowards and crooks should no longer be called "Blue Dog" Democrats. They should be called WHITE FLAG Democrats.
People like Fred Hiatt are the scum of the earth. Their definition of "bipartisan" is giving the Republitard Fascists everything they want and groveling while doing so.
We need to primary these crooked, gutless wankers -the sooner the better.

Yeah right.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'll be waiting for the announcement.
Don't hold your breath. I have a better chance of getting a threesome with Jessica Biel and Madeline Zima.

Obama just lost my vote.
[Read the article: What Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and Fred Hiatt mean by "bipartisanship"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It's bad enough that he turned yellow and decided to back this bill. He had to smear shit in my face with his patronizing little statement. If he wins the White House, it will be without my vote. I cannot and will not support someone who is too craven to stop police state measures. If I wanted someone who would knuckle under to Bush I would have supported Lieberman.
All he had to do was mention at one of his pep rallies how this bill rapes our privacy and freedoms, and that would have been the end of it.

Cowards
[Read the article: What Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and Fred Hiatt mean by "bipartisanship"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am disappointed in Obama's statement, but I am neither so pollyanish to believe that he is above making politically expedient calculations nor so cynical to believe he's abandoning the Constitution.
But in point of fact, he IS throwing the Constitution under the bus.
Much to the dismay of many posters here, myself included I guess, Obama doesn't need them (us).
Good, I won't be voting for him.
The likelihood that the passion for ethical behavior and Constitutional fidelity that drives them to the polls to vote for anyone capable of beating McCain, could be overwhelmed by Obama's equivocating on FISA is low.
Try me.
I would guess that the number of those that would actually give up on Obama are insignificant. (Which isn't to say YOU shouldn't vote on your principles.)
If I wanted to vote for someone who is willing to bend over for Dubya, I could have had Joe Lieberman back in 2004.
So, what are the ends for which you are able to sacrifice the sanctity of your means?
Here's a hint: If someone doesn't have the guts to stand up to the Republitards now, when the GOP is led by a sadistic retard with a 25% approval rating, they aren't going to say no to them next January. If they don't have the nerve to stand up for something during the election they won't muster the courage on Inauguration Day. I voted for Obama in the primaries and was an Obama delegate at my state's convention and after seeing this display of cowardice, I am truly ashamed.
If Obama thinks he can get by without the votes of people who believe in the rule of law, fine. That's what he'll have to do.
