This is NOT a goodbye cruel DU post
DU is a wonderful place, but it's geared toward politics and the McCutcheon decision has just thrust the coup de grace into our democracy. At least for now. At least when it comes to national politics.
It's become an inelegant farce with the media largely pretending that in the interests of fairness, all ideas have equal weight and that the purveyors of some of the very worst governing philosophies are just as worthy of serious consideration as those who take democratic principles serious and put forth legitimate ideas. It's corpse decorating- or desecration. take your pick.
In taking a break, I want to acknowledge a couple of things: The vast majority of DUers share common principles. We believe in a government that represents the "least" of us and not just those with deep pockets. We believe in essential fairness. We believe healthcare is a right, not a privilege. We believe that education should lift people up and that the poor, GLBT folks, people of every ethnicity and gender and religion or non-religion, have as much innate human dignity and deserve to be treated by society and government in a way that reflects that.
I also want to acknowledge that those who keep at us about the importance of voting democratic are right. It's hardly a secret to many here that I'm disgusted by the corporatism that is now so prevalent in the democratic party as well as the republican party, is something I find deeply disturbing and disgusting. But those who keep at us about the importance of voting democratic are (mostly) correct. McCutcheon is hard evidence of that.
So to everyone here, have a wonderful spring.

Hopefully to go on a dick-eating tour of the US. (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024781345)

They always insist on using the word democratic. they are democrats. They vote democrat. They govern democrat, and they legislate democrat. They are not one bit democratic.

And when they don't get what they want, they cry foul and run off like babies. She'll be back within a week, if not by Monday.

The wish they were. That way, 50.0000001% could dictate to the other 49.9999999%.
They wouldn't like that, this coming November. :-) (Percentages won't be that close, either.)

They really hate having the playing field leveled don't they.

Oh no, I think they believe very much in the tyranny of the mob. Except when they need the fascism of teh one to advance their agenda.
Nowhere do they understand we are NOT a democracy and never have been.

As though libs have a clue as to what is and isn't "the very worst governing philosophies." And least of all cali.

If she's gone more than a week it's because she's in rehab.
After she was wallduded over the earwig kerfunkle, she began to drink heavily.
In a drunken stupor, she fell and shattered a hind leg, dragging herself like a nightcrawler to get help.
She subsequently became addicted to painkillers, in addition to her alcoholism, using the broken leg as an excuse.
DUmmy cali Gage is a bitter, hateful, lonely old woman.

Splittah!
