Unbelievable! Bruce Reid from DLC on Larry Craig...
by MichaelBernard1

...Tell me Mr. Democratic Leadership Council, with all your bloviating opinion mongering about long-time Republican Senator Larry Craig of Idaho's media and legal and political sorrows, based on less than Bill Clinton's under the desk offense -

-- Tell me this: Do you have an opinion, about the illegal and ongoing wiretapping by our own U.S. Government of American Citizenry? Of the Student asking a Question of Democratic Senator John Kerry on his own college campus, who got tasered, arrested, and beaten up by the police? Any opinion about the U.S. Balance of Trade Deficits? How about the struggling American Middle Class? What about the interminable War in Iraq, which your Democrats in the Senate so kindly approved, Gulf of Tonkin styled in their Resolution, and then sat on their hands for six years, while the situation got worse, and worse, and worse? Or how about the Permanent Destruction of the American Constitution and Bill of Rights, by your Democratic Party approval, just a few weeks ago, of RENEWING PERMANENTLY the so-called "Patriot Act" with it's totally draconian and uncalled for provisions, the Omnibus Bill for the Ages for taking a Free Country that made World History with it's Successful, Democratic Experiment, and turned it into a Has Been Nation of fearful, fear mongering governance? Have you an opinion about making the Presidential Cabinet and U.S. Attorney General the ultimate, singular law of the land as regards State capital cases, undercutting our well-established legal system, State's Rights, and duly appointed Judges and Juries? Do you have an opinion about the squandering of America's resources on an unnecessary War that You Approved, and that Hillary Clinton and Joe Lieberman and so many others are still okay with, today? Do you speak out about the Two-Headed Monster (Bush Cheney) in our White House, as it plots ANOTHER WAR with IRAN just a few weeks or months away?

Oh, you only have your loudest voice when the issue is Larry Craig in an Airport Men's Room stall?

Is that all you are good for? Seeking Democratic Party self interest and questing ever after Power, to the complete exclusion of any principles of debate or free speech or democracy or republican virtues or civil rights or balanced budget and economy or peace not war or checks and balances or anything else that America is and has been historically?

I am thinking that neither the Republican Party, nor your Democratic Party, offers any answers at all to America and Americans today.

What say you?
