blah blah damn Democrats, then you post obviously propaganda bs.

I merely point out that Bennet is your problem, not mine because I don't live in Colorado. I don't presume to insist that other people in different states vote like me. The country is changing. There is movement of consensus to the left. We'll see how much in November. It's my guess that the movement will be significant but disappointing to progressive liberals. Not because damn Democrats but because a lot people are more conservative than you or I wouldd like them to be. There is movement but also resistance to change. Yet you scream corruption and quote obvious propaganda as if your cry were somehow useful or even factual.

Such as that shitty article you posted form naked capitalism. 12 Democrats voted with 52 Republicans to roll back banking reform. Something like 36 Democrats voted against it. The headline of that article claimed Warren slammed Democrats, which she did not do, she slammed the Democrats who sided with Republicans. You bought the propaganda hook line and sinker. The fault -- the entire fault if you want to blame any political party for that bill -- lies with Republicans.

I object to your nearly continuous stream of right wing propaganda that you post.
Bennett IS your problem, as well as mine, because he's a Democrat and because the Democratic Party likes to portray itself- incorrectly and disingenuously, as I'm pointing out- as being on the side of average people and against the excess of the Republicans.

They're trying to have their opposition 'resistance' cake and eat it too at fundraising time- and you're happy to let them.

Why do you let the Democrats off the hook for not acting like a party bloc when it counts? Why is it okay with you when they actively vote for and help pass such obviously regressive legislation?

I'm calling bullshit and I'm not alone.

No, I listened to it once, it's not my style. Dmt and music don't really go together for me.

Do you?
No, I really don't care for Sphongle. I've only done deem twice, didn't really care for it, although I was listening to my buddy play drums when I broke through and that was pretty cool.

Nope. Bennet is Colorado's Senator, he's your problem and the Colorado Democratic Party's fault. I hope he loses but only if a Democrat replaces him. All I can do is send vibes across the desert and down the eastern slope to you guys. If he wins, when he's against Democratic Party policies as he was regarding the repeal of Dodd-Frank, I expect he will be opposed by my Senators. I hope Oregon's Senators will work with him when he is on the same side as them. More often than not, he is. But still, I hope your State's Democratic party can take him out in the upcoming primary.

Just checking, what would you have me do? Should I vote out Oregon's Senators who align quite well with what you and I want because of Bennet? Should I stop voting for Democrats even though the balance in our State legislature is narrow? Should I then shoot myself in the foot?
