After nearly a year and a half of Hope and Change, the DUmmies are still obsessed with Dubya, Darth, and Rove. You would think they'd be fat and happy. Their messiah is pissing away money like water, money that our great grandchildren will be paying in taxes, democrats are trying to turn unemployment into a lucrative career, and socialists have huge overpowering majorities in every aspect of government. But DUmmies are still hysterical over the Republican trinity:

I say I will never give up, then I cry, then I scream, but I won't give up on wanting them punished
Rachel with courage and a spine of steel took a huge Question to Speaker Pelosi just now.
After all the years of getting more and more hardened and toughened, the disaster fatigue having set in long ago, I got weepy and wide eyed a minute ago when I heard Rachel address Speaker Pelosi and ask how did she feel about the crooks getting off with no punishment.
Now Rachel was specific of course, she rattled off the transgressions that after all this time are losing a bit of punch, we all know them by heart.
But as she laid them out to Mrs. Pelosi one after the other I simple became, genuinely, a witness to two women agonizing over something neither could understand.
I know in an hour or so a video clip of the exchange will be posted, and you will be able to see for yourself that the Speaker took up the one issue of us having been lied into the war in Iraq as her personal issue to object to the most.
She told us about the President deciding to move forward and the words we all have heard before, but to me she showed in this woman to woman exchange that there were two hearts talking to each other that were both bleeding as they connected.
I think I need to get some more tissues.
Do I really have to give up on hoping these criminals will be investigated, addressed, tried, and punished?
Do we have no recourse to claim our honor and redeem our country?
See if you agree with me about this exchange.
Watch for it when someone posts the video.
Where is Bobthedrummer. He kept coming around and energizing us to not forget.
I. Am. So. Crying.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7899476Wait a minute! What is it that has DUmmy Mira sobbing? First she says the carpetmuncher has a spine of steel, and then a bleeding heart! Which one is it? And it seems sort of disjointed to apply Pittian Emphasis, and then go for more tissues. Pull. Yourself. Together. DUmmy. Mira.
DUmmy HillbillyBob, who, if I remember correctly. is a ridgerunning polesmoker, isn't crying and screaming, but he is chagrined and shamed:

1. Someone else will have to take action
since we will never ever see any from our own government much to my chagrin and shame.
Pres O is a FOOL for this 'move along nothing to see here attitude'.
Uh oh. It's getting worse for DUmmy Mira, much worse:

5. I have issues.
Afghanistan acceleration, and the pipeline, and no honesty.
Health Care, starting it poorly operating from weakness rather than strength, no single payer, no public option, not remembering promises to us and making new ones to the Health Care "Providers"
Guantanamo is still operative
DADT is still operative
I'm choking on some vomit so let me cut to the chase.
The issue in my thread is the one I will never give up on, never relent on, never forgive.
I will move to Costa Rica, and eat a whole lot so I can tether myself to Rush when he arrives and keep him there, as a last favor to my country.
There is nothing that will allow me to let go of the shame and knowledge that we will be harmed for as long as this planet exists if we don't re-claim the honor of being "good" Americans.
We need to set out to educate those who have fallen into the pit of derailing a fine party, the Republican Party of old, into a cesspool of willful ignorance and destruction of this country.
So let's recap here. She is screaming and crying over Bushco, but she's choking on vomit because the muslim hasn't come through with the ponies. If it were me, the vomit business would be a lot worse. And she wants to sleep with Rush Limbaugh. Maybe we can put DUmmy Mira in the "undecided" column for 2012.
DUmmy LakeSamishnumbers has an interesting proposal:

2. I wish it were up to either Rachel or (maybe) Pelosi to take action against
the previous criminals. If nothing else, I would love to see Holder hand them over to the World courts to deal with.
It's doubtful anyone has given much thought before to this idea. Maybe it would be better to abandon laws and the Constitution, and just put everything in the hands of an obscure lesbian TV performer. You have to admit, at the DUmp, they think outside the box...so to speak.

3. More than anything of all right now, my problem is; How do we uphold any laws in this country,
when letting this past Administration go free with no accountability for there known crimes?

11. Thanks. I needed that.
What happens is that the waves of the world's appreciation about our electing Mr. Obama fade out.
They will begin to think of us as the wimps we are, not taking to the streets, putting up with crap like Health Insurance Reform instead of what benefits the people.
They will see before we do that we are still a country without representation of the people.
We are a country of serving the corporations, and we give them the clout to buy our representatives, and as a collective mass are too uneducated,
too pre-occupied with survival, too hungry to notice and to start screaming.
We are beginning to be stuck in the bottom of the triangle, and it leaves no room to worry about things other than food, shelter and clothing.
When we are left to struggle about the basics, then no evolving to higher planes can ensue.
Still sighing, and crying.
That's about as accurate a description of the democrat party as I've seen, right down to the sighing and crying. But wait a minute! I thought she was puking!

9. k&r
For me it's the torture and unlimited, unquestionable detention
brings me to tears and my face burns with shame
Come on, DUmmy annabanana, you aren't really outraged unless you're choking on vomit.
