Reply #3: One thing that bothers me is the silence from our party. When [View All]

[mother earth]

you look at who has been the most outspoken and facing the issues, there are a select few. We all know who they are. What bothers me is that the entire Dem. party should be screaming and demanding action. You can say we are powerless to do anything tangible about it right now, numbers have purposely been swayed to render us powerless in the Senate & Congress. That's certain. It's my feeling that these doubts I have will not be answered until we really do straighten out the whole mess.

The other thing is that I don't think we have seen the worst. I think it's going to get a whole lot uglier. The "fifth day" starts Thanksgiving day and as IHaveADream has noted in one of her posts, it's about cleansing of the extreme kind. I think we have to be realistic & know that we haven't seen every dirty trick just yet. These players are masters at deceit & they aren't going quietly. It's going to be interesting to see who the real heroes are in all of this, meaning from our side. Conyers has been unbelievable, even Lou Dobbs has helped as a journalist, IMO. We've had terrific people like RFK Jr. & BradBlog speaking out & doing a fantastic job. Those are the kind of heroes we need.
