OK. Back to Reality. Is Obama a Union-Buster? Is Bill Gates A Democrat? [View all]

Seems to me the DEM Party has to figure out where it's going and what kind of a political entity it wishes to be. The media this morning is all about how the GOP is ripe for some kind of fundamental realignment. But it's really OUR party which is " a house divided against itself."

Let's not let the transient euphoria of having escaped a Romney presidency ( for now) blind us to this glaring reality: we... as a political party.... "GOT PROBLEMS".

Here's a recently discovered favorite of mine: RagingHorseBlog. He's "in his glory" here. ( N.B. I waited 'til AFTER the election to post this here. It's about figuring out who we ARE. Not helping the GOP.)


>>>Fours years into the works RTTT is incrementally succeeding at all of these goals accompanied by the startling spectacle of union teachers praising the president and rallying for the reelection of the man who is actively and consciously destroying their workplaces, threatening their livelihoods and force feeding a lousy paint-by-numbers pseudo education on the nation’s children but not Obama’s and his friends.

Many teachers are doing this because the other guy, Romney, is even worse. This is undoubtedly true. Romney is a nightmare. But so is Obama. And so is this scenario. And so is this country. These are the choices of caged animals, not free human beings. And this nightmare will remain and, in fact, grow more so if we do not cease accepting the pathetic and grotesque choices we are given, do not cease accepting the cynical trap that has been set for us do not cease accepting that this is just the way it is.

Education is one issue, to be sure. But to be just as sure, it is emblematic of how the man and the Democratic party now operate. Look at them. Andrew Cuomo is a Democrat. Rahm Emanuel is a Democrat. Bill Gates is a Democrat. So is every member of the hedge fund gang who created and bankroll Democrats For Education Reform. They are also, like our beloved president, insidious union busters.>>>>
