Seems the DLC hasn't taken over this place afterall, LOL. Well yeah. I yell the same thing while I'm taking a bath...the Alito vote is just another day at the office for some. Another day at the "game". Don't they have guaranteed health care? Guaranteed pensions? Don't most of them have not one but two houses that if they sold most of us-that's average Americans-could find someplace decent to live and have a part time job for the rest of our lives and be richer still than we are now?

I guess what pissed me off so much is hearing anyone on DU defend them. The top level politicians have nothing to lose but their job. We have our liberties and so much more to lose if we risked everything. So to hear them defended because they could lose their precious senate seat while what we may have lost..a presidency with overreaching power..never held accountable..the abilitiy to have a abortion if you are raped..equal rights for the disabled and rights for so many others..well yeah..cry me a fucking river.

And what is Chris Matthews, Wolf Blitzer, Katie Couric have to lose, the head of the New York Times? Again, nothing. They have millions of dollars and real estate and pensions. Not only are they set for life..if god forbid one of their children needed an abortion..they could afford to fly to the farthest reaches of the earth for it. Their children will never have to go fight a war in Iraq or Iran. No, they are not us.
