Back to the professional left, the so called progressives, the ones who wouldn't be happy if Dennis da K was pres.
Gibbs is right. They wouldn't be happy with Denny for very long.
He's too far to the right; only about 2.5 off center.
They might be happy with Nader. He's only 2.5 or so to the right of koan (7.75) and me(7.50).
The PLs think we live in a progressive country. We don't. Not in a liberal country, not in a center left country, and not even a dead center country.
They think we have a progressive Congress. We may have a dead center House, but I doubt it. We have a right wing Senate. They think we have a progressive president. We don't. We don't have a liberal president, we don't have a left center president. The best you can say is we have a typical Biden Edwards Dodd Clinton moderate Dem senator as president. Wishes, hopes, and prayers are not gonna make Obama all of a sudden move 5 points to the left so he can tie Dennis da K and meet koan and me half way. Ain't gonna happen. Ain't gonna happen with ClintonBidenEdwardsDodd, either. They ain't lefties.
So, these SCPs had better sit down, look at the situation, and see if they are ready to grow up. There are 2 roads here. They can go down the road of youtube.com and we'll make it better next year and again in '13, or they can aid and abet Faux by reinforcing the message to the center that Obama is a total fuckup.
Why should Obama listen to a Jane Hampster? Why listen to a Michael Moore? What's Moore ever accomplished? He's made money, he's made movies, he's got an Oscar, but what has he accomplished? What has he done for "the movement". Has he even affected the national dialog, let alone actual changes? The guy's a fucking loser. Roger and Me...no changes. Columbine..no changes. F911...,still in Iraq, BushCheney free and rich and meeting with the peers..the haves and the have mores. Health Care..mumble mumble corporate puppeteering...whoops, not at all pleased. Finance reform...mumble mumble corporate puppeteering...whoops, not at all pleased. 30 years, and not one actual legislative accomplishment. I don't want O to listen to him; I want him to keep listening to whoever it is who has helped him accomplish more in 18 months than any president in my lifetime except FDR. The bulk of his accomplishments were behind him when I was born. He spent most of the first 7 months of my life getting ready to die.
What have these professional libs done? "Oh, here's my Obama bad rap on health care for the day. Time to get stoned. 5,239.4 daze since the last president said..." What have the professional Fauxes done? "Obama out, people don't like him these people want a party, let's have tea, Abbracadabra we created a movement out of air hey folks let's take it to the streets and MSNBC will say "there's something happening here" and we will shut down our town halls and MSNBC will say'Faux sez something happening here, Obama dong something wrong'".
Right had Let's All Pray to Jesus to Kill Health Care Parties, professional libs had Let's All Watch "Pray to Jesus to Kill Health Care Parties" Parties. Shit. Middle goes "guess nobody likes health care, so I'm agin it." Did I say "shit"? Can I say it again here?
No, you SCPs, you professional libs. You need to get us in the streets, against neos, or backing Obama. You need to have movements beyond your bowels. Y'all nothing but hot air with no substance and no support in the country, cuz you haven't tried to create a movement.
What have you done besides whine? Yeah, "5, 239.4 daze since the last pres said..., and 5,244.7 days since we last covered a peace march, or even told you that there is such a thing as a peace march."
Give me a fucking break.
