19. i'm sorry but
Edited on Fri May-21-10 08:53 PM by besdayz
this disaster and whatever comes forth falls on the democrats, specifically the liberals, who do not make the party respect their beliefs, instead leaving us with a 2 party system representing only one side of the issue.

if you were in a position to stop a disaster (the result of bad policy) and you did nothing to stop it but rather further encouraged the error, then you are responsible.....

this goes on all the weak liberals for making themselves ineffectual and the blue dogs, middle ground, centrist pukes like evan bye.


just another aspect of this administrations that is slowly eroding my confidence in any real 'CHANGE'
everything done so far reeks of political expediency and compromise and a slacking of ideals from court appointments to detention center policy to offshore drilling.....

i used to look at elders when i was in my early 20s and wonder how some of them could get so jaded and be unengaged. after about a decade i'm starting to get to that point myself....

rfk said it best when he described the 60s student movement as the culmination of young people realizing they have no impact whatsoever and thus they checked out ie became hippies, drugs, music, counterculture, all reality escape.

the irony is those people grown up are the problem now in their chronic inefficacy. its also ironic that the silent majority these days are on my side of the spectrum while the hippies of our time call themselves tea baggers.
