"Never before have so few with so much promised to take away so much from so many and then laugh their asses off as the so many with so little vote for the so few with so much." A James Pence Quote

As far as I'm concerned there's not a dimes worth of difference between the Kentucky Democratic Party and the Kentucky Republican Party, all you have to do is look at some the candidates. Of course there are real Progressive Candidates, here in Kentucky and I'm proud to mention the names of Jim Holbert Democratic Candidate for Kentucky's 5th Congressional District, Ed Marksberry Democratic Candidate for Kentucky's 2nd Congressional District, and John Waltz Democratic Candidate for Kentucky's 4th Congressional District. Unlike Jack Conway these guys are real Progressive grassroots candidates, but here in Kentucky that means, in my opinion, that these guys are on the Kentucky Democratic Party's Sh*t list! And let me take this one step further, it seems to me that Jack Conway is doing every thing he can to distance himself from them.
Jim Holbert
Ed Marksberry
John Waltz
Now let's get to the national scene and read what White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs has to say about Progressives:
Common Dreams ON TUESDAY, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs railed against what he called "the professional left.'' "They will be satisfied when we have Canadian health care and we've eliminated the Pentagon,'' he told The Hill, a Washington publication. "That's not reality.''
And if that's not enough, we had to read about White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel calling Progressive folks like us “F—ing retarded.”
Fire Dog Lake Another day, another disappointment for progressive Democrats. We learn from former auto-industry car czar Steve Rattner that Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel said "Fuck the UAW" during tough takeover talks – just like he called progressives "f**king retarded" for contemplating primary challenges against conservative Democrats.
If the George W. Bush White House Press Secretary or his White House Chief of Staff said these things about Progressives, we would be very upset, but when Democrats say this to us we just seem to fold. Well I'm not folding and as far as I'm concerned the White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs and White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel can kiss my Progressive a**. These are the same folks that layed down when it came to real Healthcare reform, called us "f**king retarded" and the "the professional left.'' Now they want us to stand up and vote for them. Really! Now that takes balls!
