Our Republic needs more and better Democrats. Americans have decided that the conservative government of George W. Bush needs to be forcefully opposed.

Yet, most of the Democratic Party leadership has managed to ignore the mandate for change which the public gave to them. These cowards capitulate pointlessly to a loathed President and allow a criminally corrupted Republican Party to continue to call the shots in Washington.

Their continued failure to fight, truly fight for liberal principles will result in worse anger at their betrayal, worse apathy in our Democratic process, and another 8 years of Republican corruption.

For this reason, I've decided to document their atrocities. In 1776 I said, "Lead, Follow, or Get Out of the Way." In 2008 we don't need anymore followers. Lead boldly, or, for the sake of our great Nation, please get the hell out of the way.

Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice.

Unintentional Parody

Now let's start caving!

How best to announce to America that the people's Congress is back in session and ready to do the business of fixing the nation? Talk baseball.

The theory goes that people care about sports and the media will cover opening sessions above the fold if the hearings are about sex or sports. Therefore, Henry Waxman asked the Justice Department of the United States of America to investigate shortstop Miguel Tejada.

Seriously.

And we wonder why Americans don't think Congress has done anything worthwhile. Maybe it's because when we're not bending over for a hated President and his loathed Republican lackeys we are dicking around with bullshit like the Baltimore Orioles.

I don't particularly care about baseball, so can we put this steroid thing aside and get back to what we normally do, wholesale and unnecessary capitulation?

Good.
