The Cynic Inside me is restless and troubled lately . . .
The cynic in me wonders why the Democrats never do anything to preempt Republicans at any level whatsoever.
Because . . .
. . . Republicans have been doing the same things for decades once they gain power . . . it doesn't matter how they sound during the campaign they always 'come home'.
The cynic in me wonders if that 'lethargy' is deliberate so the Democrats can whip up some electoral outrage energy, which catapults them back into office. The Democrats then, in short order, 'let' the GOP wreck shop . . . then they bawl yet again(just in time for next election season):
"Look at what they did! Unconscionable!"
Its a never ending emotional circle we're being led around in . . . without the Democrats EVER actually trying to 'insulate' against the overarching, boringly-predictable goals and machinations of the GOP . . .
. . . My cynic thinks that the destruction of the GOP would possibly mean the end of their rhetorical and existential raison d'être.
. . . because as the cynic in me fears we will then see just how bought you too are . . .
Yes I said 'bought'.
For instance the GOP have blocked jobs bill after jobs bill after jobs bill in the MIDDLE of a recession . . . you should have been drumming them into the ground about it 24/7 until 'anti-work' and 'treasonous' becomes synonymous with the GOP in the public's mind!
Why did you let them off the hook with this?
Do you really want the economy to improve? If you do call them the craven, racist, treasonous obstructionists that they are without any apologies and without backing down . . . call them that because that what they are!
My Cynic wonders about this glaring political, albeit patriotic, malfeasance by the Democrats on this score.
Are you trying to somehow placate Big Business, who flagrantly backed the GOP in their obstruction, so that they may 'look kindly' upon you 'when we aren't looking'?
ARE you saying:
"Hey . . . that was some election rhetoric, ok? Don't be so peeved! We were never going to 'hurt' you, ok? So . . . um . . . how about that deal we spoke about before . . .?'
Is My Cynic right about your 'secret handshake' of a 'narrative'?
I hope He's wrong . . .

The cynic in me is tired of flat footed outrage.
The cynic in me wants some fucking OFFENSE!
The cynic in me wants some seamless solidarity in political and nationally altruistic purpose . . . and benching of the damned idealism occasionally. Then exhibit disciplined collusion between all parts of the party 'when it matters' or 'when there is an opportunity' towards the greater good.
The cynic in me doesn't want the Democrats to be respectful or 'nice'.
The cynic in me feels that the GOP see our being nice and refusal to 'kill' as a weakness, a lifeline . . . and have been exploiting it for years . . . while slaughtering our 'base' and our 'sacred policy cows':
Labor, Environmental Protections, Social Services, Anti-discrimination Laws, Entitlements, etc.
Labor, Environmental Protections, Social Services, Anti-discrimination Laws, Entitlements, etc.
The cynic in me feels the GOP dine too well on these 'carcasses' irrespective of common sense and an obvious, glaring, ever-present, widespread fever of deliberate/proud factual deficiency . . . and our side always seems to let them get away with it in some way that you can see coming a mile off at times . . .
The cynic in me doesn't want to hear that:
". . . 'playing' like 'that' makes us no better than them . . .!"
Sorry but my cynic wants to yell in response:
"I don't give a shit. Fuck that! 'Kill' them! Enough!"
(Kill means take them out politically unrelentingly and ruthlessly for those thinking I'm advocating for physical violence)
The cynic in me will still vote for you . . . but only because you don't smell as much like a defrosting cadaver in the hot sun . . . like the other side does . . .
My cynic will vote for you ultimately . . . but fuck the uplifting, empty rhetoric because He's not trying to hear it until He starts to see some 'bloody' hands holding ripped out elephant tusks and you start making trophies of the 'skinheads' scalps, you start using the tattered and bloody Klan hoods as flags, and you start turning the fat sows that are the GOP oligarchs into bacon . . . so to speak!
The cynic in me wants you to quarantine the corporate apologists on our side in a facsimile of the Gitmo they blocked the President from closing and rendition that knack for performing fellatio on any potential millionaire donor at the expense of the party platform, the FUCK OUT OF THEM!
And then release them but confine them to their 'homes' with an almost lethal 'anklet' wired to go off if they stray too far, for the next 10 - 12 election cycles . . . with the threat of reconditioning in Gitmo if they backslide to their whoring ways!
The cynic in me goes back to the decimation of the unions in the 1980's and wonders . . . where the FUCK were you Democrats?
The Cynic in me wonders after Reagan's first salvo against unions . . . WHERE was your federal and state cooperation to make sure the GOP can't destroy anymore of organized labor?
The cynic in me wonders with all this talk about taking back the house . . . how come you seemed not to know when these members of your caucus continuously and seemingly exponentially would 'announce their retirements'? How could you be so disconnected that you had no inside knowledge of these departures and had no plan or any candidate waiting in the wings to hold on to the seat BEFORE the public announcement!??
The cynic in me wonders . . . if you'll use these 'untimely' vacancies as an excuse to sit back, watch the GOP gain the senate, and watch as they systematically dismantle this president's legacy, as well as, the entire progressive history of this nation . . . while riding the 'horror wave' yet again to benefit yourselves individually by retaining your office again, on the pipe dream of 'this time we'll get them!' . . . just like so many times before over the decades!
The Cynic in me wonders why you're so chicken shit, it seems, to confront and fight the GOP on the so-called rhetorical home turf!
It's no mystery that these days the GOP utter nothing but lies about everything:
From the economy to religion to energy . . . nothing but lies, obfuscation and misdirection, which may 'go down easy' for those who may not know better.
Where is your rabid fight to stop the 'innocently ignorant' from falling prey to this?
When a Pat Robertson gets up on TV and says something really crazy, please enthusiastically and unrelentingly 'tar and feather' the entire GOP establishment with this 'intellectual piss' . . . I beg of you :
Do it.
If you won't can you please tell America why?
My Cynic again asks If you're 'nursing' their insanity for your political benefit?
Why?
Because you're supposed to be about stamping such insanity out, not letting it 'breathe' by this egalitarian mantra that everyone should have a voice.
No. Not everyone.
Some things should not be said and should not be allowed air to respire, as they are toxic to the very idea of this country and her best traditions.
My inner Cynic wonders what the fuck are you waiting for.
The Cynic in me wonders why you won't call the GOP out on the avaricious, evil Randian philosophy they practice.
The Cynic in me is wondering why you can't seem to realize that society and her politics no longer resemble the polite 'cotillion' of 'Old Europe'.
It's a gladiators' arena.
Like it or not why can't you see that is what it is? You may not 'like' it but please suck it up and be like Maximus here . . .
Again like Max:
Please slaughter the Other Side!??
You have everything at your disposal to do this . . . and the country NEEDS this from you.
Oblige already . . . or is My Cynic right about you . . .?

This is just some of what the cynic in me is saying and thinking
And He's pissed.
Yeah I still keep him in check . . . but the lack of conviction or the stupidly naive and impractical excess of 'conviction' on the other end of that political pendulum is riling him up.
Democrats please take note:
I don't know how much longer I can hold him . . .
Because trust me:
There's more
