Let's not forget, we have been dealing with "Traitors"

[kpete]

Traitors.

Let's say it: Traitors.

Republicans created this, they own it, and they will pay for it. The country they swore to serve and protect is being dragged into a recession, damaging our financial credibility, and pushing us towards REAL DAMAGE to the place the US holds in world affairs - all through their stupidity and arrogance.

This is what terrorists do - this is what traitors do - this is what Republicans are doing. You on the right - you own this - you created this, you planned for this, you are getting what you wanted. Now there will be a time to pay the price. See you at the polls - in our rear view mirrors. Your days as a viable party on any front are just about over.

The public's memories can be short - but not this time...

and I just found this:

The Tea Party is not just a bunch of crazy people, it is part of a strategy to drive our government into the ground so that Koch Industries and Goldman Sachs won't be nettled by the EPA, the SEC or the DOJ. It is the legacy of Grover Norquist and the Heritage Foundation to fundamentally transform our democracy into a weak representation of collective will while enshrining a legal defense of corporate power even when it is counter to basic morality. Many of the Tea Party have been turned against their families by FreedomWorks Astroturf campaigns with Limbaugh and Rupert Murdoch propaganda targeting their fears and stoking their paranoia. They are angry citizens, while one hand ships their jobs overseas the other points out for them a target of vengeance: liberal progressivism. They are the flip side of the Occupy movement, and as long as the two faces of indignant citizenry vent their fury at each other across the partisan divide, the bankers and the industrialists laugh and clap each other on the back over scotch and cigars at the country club.

2. K&R, kpete! Thanks for finding and sharing.

That's exactly what Republicans are - without exception - TRAITORS. And we better not forget in the coming elections, beginning NOW.

Throw all those traitors out, and anyone who wears that shameful 'R' by their name in any election. The Republican Party NOW must be shown that threatening the full faith and credit of the United States, shutting down our government because they didn't get their way, and bowing to the TeaBaggers in their districts and in the U.S. House, will not go unpunished. Otherwise, those who vote for these traitors are traitors to this country, too.

3. They are traitors.

4. I don't think we can influence our system by voting anymore.

Did that and I don't see the changes we need to make coming. We can only make a difference, a change, by putting pressure on them and that means bodies in the street. That is why Occupy was so threatening to them...it gave us a voice. We need 50,000 people to show up at any given time for peaceful protest and we need to keep it up.

I don't know what else will make a difference...and we're running out of time.

6. They learned from the master ...

The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

8. In a literal sense they are traitors to Democracy

Being unwilling to accept the voters will. We voters don't like unilateral decisions forced on us!

On edit: I may not like the decision of the majority, but I do insist on it!
