So, I got a call from the DLC today.
Phone caller: May I speak to tsuki. Me: This is tsuki. Phone caller: This is PC from the DLC. The Democratic Leadership has been working for sixteen years to.... Me: Excuse me. Are you from the DLC? Phone Caller: Yes,... Me: I'm a liberal. I don't do the DLC. Silence. Complete and total. I thanked them and hung up. On reflection, I wish I'd have said that you can keep Blanche Lincoln.

6. i won't even donate to the DNC
and asked to be removed from their calling list when someone called me a couple of weeks ago. I'm sick of politics and politicians. If i have any money to go towards politics, it goes to DFA or individuals I like.

8. I don't know. How many people will admit to being a liberal. Most
people I know say they are progressives. I'm a liberal Socialist Democrat. Throws them for a loop.

9. Did you tell the caller that the DLC is a fiction of our imaginations?
As we've been told over and over on DU?

them for donations, I was through.

13. yeah i got one from them or the DNC all concerned re our 'majority'
and maintaining it this November. I asked why, we don't do anything with it do we? We didn't get a public option or single payer on health care did we? I asked why do we pussy foot around with our majority and when the GOP has even the slightest majority they bend us over like an emo rentboy? I told him there are way too many unemployed people too. told him I wouldn't take up anymore of his time, and let you get on with calling your list...

15. more need to push back like that. They told me only the republicans get
donations from corporations. I told him that was pure BS. The democrats also get donations from corporations, and to get mine from them.
