It occurs to me that it’s been a while since I went on a polit­i­cal toot, and there may be new peo­ple here who thought that this point­less exer­cise in self-indulgence was all Apple, all the time. Sorry, it ain’t. If that’s a prob­lem, I sug­gest unsubscribing.

The Rude Pundit on Health Care as a Civil Right

As usual, The Rude Pundit nails it. Health care is a civil right, and Progressives need to treat it as such. Additionally, the Democrats need to grow a pair and real­ize that we voted them a mega – major­ity for a fuck­ing rea­son. From the article:

Mostly, though, there’s only one real solu­tion: Democrats have to have the guts to tell Republicans that they’re no longer part of the process. They have not nego­ti­ated in good faith and they’re not gonna vote for shit, no mat­ter how watered down. It’s gotta be “Fuck off, fuck­ers” and bar the door and pass what needs passing.
