WE THE PEOPLE need to get OUR Country back on track.
MOST of the time WE understand that, but occasionally WE get sidetracked.
When WE get sidetracked, WE start in on each other like a pack of snarling dogs. It has to stop. NOW.
OK, now that we have THAT problem solved.... ha ha.
What is the difference between WINNING and WHINING?
Here is the only example of a "good whine" I can think of: "WHY CAN'T YOU DEMS be more like JOHN CONYERS? He's been fighting for OUR Rights since day one whether anyone pays attention or not.
But not being happy with the DLC (which most people agree COULD BE our best chance to pick a "REAL WINNER" for US if they would actually show US a DEM candidate that doesn't have to abandon the principals of Democracy to get the nod) is NOT the same as "Whining".
Those focused on TRULY WINNING are not just complaining about the way things are going, they are bringing up or looking for winning strategies.
Is it a "WIN" if WE get a DEM in office who supports the DLC agenda AS IS?
I don't think so.
What I suggest is:
1) That WE Bombard the DLC with our ideas of better agendas and candidates and OUR reasons for supporting them.
2) That WE tell the DLC that ANY candidate the PEOPLE will VOTE for had better support a Fair and Transparent Voting Process --- OR it is USELESS for us to cast our vote for that candidate.
Because ANY candidate who likes the current rigged system is either too stupid to run the country..... (Been there, had that done to us. THANK you - not again.) --- OR --- ANY candidate who likes the rigged system is in cahoots and is confident they will be elected no matter how we vote. In that case they don't need our effort door knocking or at the polls or even our financial support because they can just manufacture the votes in cyberspace and be done with it.
3) That we continue to EDUCATE ourselves on DUE Process and quit getting upset over strategies that don't involve an instant solution.
This case that Fitzgerald is fighting has every potential of delivering US the EVIDENCE needed to bring about IMPEACHMENT for anyone involved. Look at how long he has been PATIENTLY building his case and how careful his every step is.
WE THE PEOPLE gotta be more like Fitz.
Get the FACTS. Spell it out. Document the lies. Give the rethugs rope to hang themselves. Then deliver our own indictments to the world or our neighborhood in a clear and precise way that is all about restoring this nation to sanity and NOT about payback. WE THE PEOPLE need to be more like "just doing my job" Fitz and face up to our responsibilities to get informed and hold our leaders accountable for their high crimes of treason against US.
4) WE THE PEOPLE need to be lavish in our support of those WHO DO GET IT.
Conyers Boxer Feingold Kennedy
Fitz
There are many more.
The generals who have stood up against the administration's WaR OF Choice.
Reporters who have died in IRAQ trying to bring us the TRUTH.
Scientists and others who risk their careers and maybe their lives to bring us the FACTS.
Soldiers who put themselves in harms way because they believed America needed them.
FINALLY ---- TO WIN WITHOUT HONOR is to NOT "WIN" at all.
If we "get our country back" only by becoming those whose behavior drove US to fight back in the first place, then we have lost ourselves and have only re-gained the land beneath our feet, not the Heart and Soul of America.
