Fresh from infecting previously progressive congresspeople with intent of dropping the public option, the dreaded disease is now taking over the party!
Corrente is noting Bill Moyers profound statements about the corruption of the Democratic party
You really have essentially — except for the progressives on the left of the Democratic Party – you really have two corporate parties who in their own way and their own time are serving the interests of basically a narrow set of economic interests in the country
these narrow interests seem to win, determine the outcomes, no matter how many Democrats are elected, no matter who has their hands on the levers of powers, these narrow interests determine the outcomes in Washington…
as I was saving these words for posterity, it struck me how conspicuusly absent Obama’s name was from all this. And not that no name was mentioned.
The villain fiend was here again. This is one of two paragraphs dedicated to him:
I think Rahm Emanuel, who is a clever politician, understands that the money for Obama’s re-election will come from the health care industry, from the drug industry, from Wall Street. And so he’s a corporate Democrat who is determined that there won’t be something in this legislation that will turn off these interests
Apparently, not only is Emmanuel holding poor Obama a prisoner in the basement while stomping over progressives and the party’s ideals, but he is obsessed with being re-elected too. Oh wait… Nevermind.
It was a cry of victory amongst B0bots when the RBC gave Obama Hillary delegates in states he didn’t run. Will anyone hold this guy accountable? Ever?
