It’s time for change to mean change. There is no reason for Democrats in Washington to continue to buy the idea that the majority of Americans are Conservative or moderately conservative. Yes there are quite a few of the conservanuts out there, and they still continue to replicate every year. That should not, however, keep the Liberal majority from doing the work that need to be done.
- Health Care Reform
- New and Progressive Immigration Policy
- Ending the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars
- Ending the Drug War
and many more….
(a few of my hopes and dreams…. Abolition of the Death Penalty, Stronger Automatic & Semi-Automatic Gun Control, Equal Rights for All People in any type of permanent relationship- I can list a hundred of these)
Considering all the important work that can and should be done with two solid majorities in both houses of government there is no reason for things like Health Care reform to not pass. There are several so-called Blue-Dog Democrats who are sabotaging the President’s efforts to get a bill passed.
“No, I don’t think they have the votes,” Rep. Mike Ross, D-Ark., said, arguing if that were the case he and the other six Blue Dogs on the House Energy and Commerce Committee who have been holding up the bill in committee would be under far less pressure. (Political Punch@ABC.com)
Democrats like these, who more often than not vote with the Republicans, should not survive their next primary. It is time for change to hit each and every congressional district in the nation. Follow the jump to see a list from the Blue Dog Coalition Web site of each and every Congressperson who should be given their walking orders if they decide to tow the Republican line.
You never saw the Republican Party as divided as you see the Democrats now. It’s absolutely laughable. We need to contact these so-called Democrats and let them know that there is no I in TEAM, and Democrats who vote like Republicans won’t last another Primary season.
