For all the talk of politicians who are more interested in keeping their jobs than fighting for the people, you sure couldn't tell it from most Democrats. They don't even seem to be trying, and there's plenty that they could be doing, not only to save their jobs, but also to fight for the people. It's enormously frustrating.

Michael Moore Gives Up on Democrats?
Thursday's edition of Countdown with Keith Olbermann featured Michael Moore, stalwart defender of liberalism, and he seems to have given up. And I have to say, I'm not far behind him. Day after day, we see conservatives making hay out of things that simply shouldn't work. They demonize almost everybody, talk about privatizing popular programs like Medicare and Social Security. They take credit for things they opposed, and oppose everything else. They have no other plan than what they've done before, John Boner Boehner going so far as to say they are not going to change. Same old policies that were proven not to work. And they're still on track to make great gains in November.

Thanks for the honest assessment. I just wish there were term limits in Congress. All it is now, let's see how we can get re-elected, followed by "how much money can I make". This is from both parties.
