All the time I see you and others complaining about how there is so much criticism of Obama and the Dems, and hardly ever a word of criticism about Republicans. These are my thoughts on that:
If I have a beloved family member who is royally fucking up,you bet I'm going to be harping at, and complaining about that loved one; most likely to the exclusion of expressing how I feel about that jerkwad at work who bugs the shit out of me.
It's only human nature to be more concerned about the behavior of those you are most akin to than those you are not.
Just let the Prez and those blue dog Dems start pushing for the actual benefit of their constituents, and you'd see all kinds of praise and adulation pouring forth from the "liberals" on DU for their leaders. Meanwhile, it's so much more troubling to see the wolves in sheep's clothing tearing down our revered institutions from the inside rather than those attacking from the outside. Moreover, when you have the Democratic party dying from within, you realize how terribly vulnerable it is to the "depraved insanity of the repubs"... and you should know, we'll never reform the rethugs, so who are we going to try to persuade?
By the way, it's just nonsensical to always defend the indefensible... and boy do I see a lot of that around here.
