…I know I would be perfectly happy to stick to ridiculing stupid Republicans and media wankers, maybe post the occasional Muppet video, but it didn’t work out that way. We didn’t change our values just because a Democratic president moved into the White House, and unfortunately the executive branch didn’t either. Conflict was inevitable.
Progressives still believe in transparency, due process, rule of law, environmental protection, DADT repeal, marriage equality, choice, immigration reform, unions, Social Security, affordable universal health care, and the overarching principle of standing up for ordinary people against the rich and powerful. The White House… still doesn’t. Through a combination of compromise, incompetence, inaction, and deliberate embrace, Obama has ended up on the Republican side of every single one of these issues – and attacks and ridicules us for refusing to follow him there….
Indeed it does hurt, Fearguth; but probably not as bad as my hero and speaker of truth to power, Bernie Sanders’ feet right now, as he heads into the eighth hour of a filibuster: http://cs.pn/h6UY3Y

Yeah I asked that too; who the fuck is he talking to??

Right on target, but Ouch! that hurts.
