Please. Stop. Could the Democratic 7 Dealmakers possibly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory on Alpo Accounts [SSI 'private' accounts]? Am I really ever going to have to watch Whiney Joe [Lieberman] sell FDR's legacy down the river so Bush can plant another fat wet kiss on his tiny little head? Oh nooooooooooooo....
When your enemy's drowning, throw him an anvil! With Bush, that's the responsible thing to do!

Why is it that our Democratic 'leadership' doesn't seem to get the obvious point that Republicans don't operate in 'good faith'? They'll take the concession and then use it as a step to the next set of concessions. For references, see votes on the Patriot Act and the leverage gained from Kerry's votes for/against war funding.

Okay, off to the shop. I'll probably be bitching about this a little more later, after everybody starts hedging and spinning through the news cycle.
