DU: Are you Energized?

[champt10]

I dont know about you, but as a member of the Democratic base, I feel energized that my party and John Edwards said a big FUCK YOU to Fox Noise today. What about you?

3. I wasnt sure..

It if was Faux Noise or Fox NOise. I know Keith originally said Faux News, but I thought he now said Fox Noise instead of Faux noise.

5. Welcome to DU!

And yes, Keith Olbermann started calling it Fox Noise. I've been calling it Pox "news," but Pox Noise is better. Faux is also good.

:hi:

As to the original post question - YES I feel energized! YES. There's stuff all over these boards that leaves me feeling MOST encouraged! Especially the roger ailes whining because of the Edwards/Daily Kos/Richardson/Nevada Dems smackdown! AND the Henry Waxman investigations - calling Plame and Fitzgerald to testify!! Waxman's my guy, too. Couldn't be sweeter! Nice way to start the weekend, 'eh?

:party:

4. Yeah, But

Things are certainly better than a few years ago - the insane Right is on the run.

But we Dems have a triangle on our back - triangulating to provide cover for doing the bidding of the Predator Class. When "Dems" mouth platitudes about the average Joe and Jane while actually courting the Predato Class's cash with "free" trade, union busting, "Patriot" Acts, bizarre wars, and other Righty garbage, we have a problem.

When we elect actual Dems who truly support Democratic values, we'll be in much better shape.

6. Murdoch threw a big fundraiser for a Dem candidate.

Maybe that candidate will show up and debate their self.

8. Murdoch's No Dummy

I'm sure he's getting his money's worth.

7. If all this shit happening now

ain't the neocon house of cards crashing down, I'm committing myself to a mental institution so's I get a steady drip of thorzine.
