re: #49 Targetpractice

Democrats as a party still want to play by gentlemen’s rule against an opposition that sees fighting dirty as the new status quo. It’s part of the reason why Reid, despite getting snookered again and again by handshake deals, would not abandon the filibuster. They want so badly to believe that the old rules of decorum are still obeyed when it’s obvious to outside observers that the GOP as a party has gone bugfuck insane.

In military terms, as parties in general, today’s TPGOP has become the Viet Cong and the Democrats are the Vietnam-era US military.

We all know how that turned out, so that’s why those of us who aren’t batshit crazy needs to hold the Dems’ feet to the fire so they act like they have a pair when dealing with the TPGOP.
