You know why I laugh when conservatives fail?
because there's not much else to laugh about when you're a progressive. If something remotely close to single payer would have been enacted, not only would I have been giddy knowing everyone would have health care, but I would also gain some pleasure from watching the conservatives tear their own faces off.

Trying to be a cheerleader for the team that always comes in last is getting old.

1. More like cheering for the Washington Generals...or so it feels.

They even try to copy those Globetrotter moves in hopes they will all work out!

Silly Washington Generals!

2. You know what?
You are right about always feeling the sting of losing to some loudmouth idiot.

But if we can't always win, I still want to be on the "right" side.

3. "Giving up without a fight" has become a strategy.
