You know, Senator Russ Feingold from Wisconsin has become my fucking political hero. I thought is motion of censure this past Monday demonstrated leadership and gravitas and as Colbert might say, BALLS.
I am so disappointed in the rest of the Democrats for remaining a pile of political vaginas stuck in the dirty shoebox of the Republican party. Sorry for the graphic-ness but I am so pissed off at those fucks. Can they support this at all? No. Why? They are mad thwart Feingold didn't bother wasting time by trying to gain their support before announcing his motion. Thus, in their and the fag-off Republicans view, he has created a losing motion.
Well, duh? Of course it's going to lose, man!? It's a Republican congress. However, I appreciate the gesture and I am glad that, at the very least, somewhere in the history books there will be a footnote that at least mentions that SOMEBODY in our government KNOWS that America is in a real bad place and we have been driven there against our will by an ego maniacal jack off named George.
I wrote Senator Feingold thanking him for his stand on being just one of 10 senators to not vote for the Patriot Act re-newal a week or two ago. I thanked him for his clear opposition and leadership and I respect his voice and his stand. The rest of the Dems are, as always, just pissing away another opportunity to take a page from the Republican play book and start taking a strong stand.
Seriously, COME ON GUYS! Take the fight to the floor, grow some fucking guts and take our licks...Who cares if you might lose some abstract ground as the ass heads on the right re-circle their wagons so to speak.
OH NO! Now they have talking points and reason to re-unite over what that dastardly Feingold did by trying to tell the truth and hold some measure of responsibility to our dimwitted President. OH NO!?! They are gonna bounce back from their dissent with the Ports deal and re-unite and then win all the 2006 elections!?! OH NO, let's just hide in our corner of the senate and fear that, despite Dubya's approval rating being in the mid to low thirties, that they are still going to win because we are a bunch of un-focused, wimps who hate America and have no "plan."
Golden opportunity Senators. I implore you to support Feingold, unite and make a real fight and quit pussy footing around. You ass wimps in Congress also should listen up and get behind Rep. John Conyers and his impeachment inquiry. God DAMMIT keep the heat on these assholes so we can begin all the hard work we need to do to get America back. I am so fucking sick and tired of they way things are and the way they are going. I am sick of the Right, the Republicans, the War, the fear, the religious right, the abortion issue, the gay marriage issue, the war on drugs, the war on porn...
And while I am making requests of the Democrats I must ask one other thing...
Not Hillary Clinton. Don't do it. Don't shoot your toes off by throwing such a polarizing person into the race...not this one, not in 2008. The red meat that would give the Roves of the world? The animosity that would give to the Rush Limbaugh set? The fact that Hillary thinks it is important to stop and complain about video games that have been out on the market well over a year because there was video game sex in them? N-O. We need someone like Wesley Clark, Russ Feingold, Bill Richardson, Paul Hackett..Or if you can find one a Democrat, Iraqi War vet who is also a woman...Who is not Hillary. If you go with Hillary then we will continue to be fucked.
