Ya Know, We Did Sweat Blood
for the public option, civil liberties, rights for gay brothers and sisters, and so much else. We did it in 2008 and 2006, when we poured out treasure and time and effort to get Mr. Obama and Democrats elected. Since I dare not, on threat of being locked, criticize any DUer with whom I disagree, I won't. I will only say, generically, abouting "sweating blood" now - I have for decades and did to get this current group of Dems elected. I am outta blood, and patience, now.

3. An awful lot of people have shed actual blood, sweat and tears.
I won't hate on anyone losing patience after all that, but our labors earn us only the right to continue laboring.

The very wealthy people we're fighting aren't tiring, so we owe it to each other to pick ourselves up as quickly as we can. We outnumber 'em, and can't be denied forever.
