What the (wrong) right has learned.....just struck me today.... [View All]

We have countless threads here detailing outrage (appropriate, in my view) of damage done to our country by the regrettable misadministration. We are processing their actions from our point of view, and the outrage is because it would not occur to us to be so bold and brazen and openly criminal to do what they do (Lay, Rove, Iraq, list goes on and on of course).

BUT - it struck me that they've learned something very important - they can get away with anything, because the CAN, and they DO. They've learned that after early outrage, things settle down...they create diversions or additional outrages, while their repeat -repeat-repeating lie propaganda machines nab the sheeple, the right base, fundies, etc.

UNLESS there is some leadership from the Dems - or somewhere, I'll take it from anywhere - to stand up to this criminal approach, nothing will change, we will continue our infinite threads of outrage. Actually, there is a shining light - Cindy Sheehan is showing us how it can be done. Will enough of us have the courage and conviction to follow? Will ANY of the Dem leaders step up to the plate, grow some balls, take off the gloves and take on these criminals???

So - again - why are they doing what they are doing? Because they've learned that they can .....and unless something changes big time, the pattern will not end.
