This diary would get you autobanned on Daily Kos. Teh Kool Kidz are pulling out all the stops to defend this latest insult. Give the guy more time! We don't know the details! It's yet another superduper jui-jitsu maneuver to outplay the Repubs! He ares a geeneeyus!

Of course, most of them are plants, and fools easily conned by plants. Still, sad.

I very rarely look at Kos (0.00 / 0)

as much for the poor format as the DLC apologists.

But when I have of late, I've noticed far more vigorous criticism of the administration than at the beginning of the term.  

And there is a front page diary entitled "Unimaginable stupidity," so maybe even the kool aid types are beginning to wake up a bit.

Well (4.00 / 4)

There's this, this and this, so don't hold your breath.

Then again, there's also this and this, so who knows?

I'm not saying that there aren't honest, reality-based real progressives posting good stuff there. But the S/N ratio has been steadily declining since Obama won the primaries.

I just want them to leave. They've had their say, they're embarrassing themselves and the party, and they have no place in serious progressive discussions. When you place more importance on a person than a movement, you turn yourself into a joke.

Thx for reading that DKos crap, so I don't have to, Kovie! (4.00 / 2)

Wow. You really must have a strong stomach. I couldn't do that, all that idiocy would make me puke.

It's some sort of weird cycle (0.00 / 0)

one day the front page will criticize Obama strongly, then the next day they will hunt down, flame, and ban anyone who expresses the same view independently.  Then they will smear the person after they have banned them.
