(95,247 posts)To the idiotic belief of so many on the left that we win by showing ourselves to be above the fray, and better behaved than the enemy. For it was Democrats, and well-meaning people on the left, who saw to Sen. Franken resigning his office. Republicans alone, even with aid from the press, could not have managed it.
People need to be clear about this. What makes us better than the enemy is that our goals are good goals, that will improved people's lives, while the enemy seeks to sow despair and poverty to benefit a handful of plutocrats. The ludicrous idea that in a fight with an evil shit-heel you have to sit still for a sucker-punch, and be fair and let him up rather than stomp on his kidneys, just makes us losers in the fight of our lives.
"Defeat of a dangerous enemy is something to be for."
