Then more reasonable TV hosts pick it up and start inviting Hamster, Adam Greed and any other seemingly "progressive activist" on their shows to discuss how awful Obama is. Even David Schuster gets in on the act and does a segment on his show about primarying the president.<br /><br />In the meantime, the GOP and Congress gets away with the sh1t they do because the right AND left are too busy bashing the Obama.<br /><br />This is why the progressive movement is largely a joke. They spend too much time, effort, money and energy into tearing down a Democrat rather than working within the system to effect change. But I guess that's too much work and it's much easier to sit, sh1t and complain on DFox all day.TrumpDognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163441833245663827.post-66558800560390631602011-07-30T07:38:03.012-05:002011-07-30T07:38:03.012-05:00In a perverse way, it might be.

The "poutrage" platoon gives him something he can show Boehner and McConnell and say, "see, I'm willing to take heat from the hard-liners on my own side -- you should be willing to take heat from the teabaggers."Infidel753https://www.blogger.com/profile/10965786814334886696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163441833245663827.post-65651089112758288212011-07-30T06:19:23.730-05:002011-07-30T06:19:23.730-05:00I was rather offended after I checked out the cut-...I was rather offended after I checked out the cut-out picture on dkos, so I wrote a diary there to try and educate people about how to reach aims. If one or the other reasonable folks wander there, I would appreciate it.
