Buyer's Remorse

Every now and then, when the Pwogwessive Chorus' choir masters have to take a break to nurse their sore baton wrists, the sounds of a couple off-key singers emerges from the otherwise uniform hope 'n change din. Such has been the case lately on a couple of the pwoggie blogs.

This time around it's Newspwoggers and Obot Left leaking a mournful tune over the stalling of Obama's craptastic "public option" heath care industry reform over Congress' summer schmoozing-for-dough break. Don't bother reading these extended whines - they're not much different from the ones published during the TARP robbery, the energy bill fiasco, or any of the other little "disappointments" dished out by the Obama administration to the personality cultists. And we all know that this one will be just as easily forgotten as the others.

What I want to know is - what right do these fuckers have to feel buyer's remorse? They're the ones that threw their vote away without so much as a whisper of a demand. They're the ones that jumped into the Obama Personality Cult with both fucking feet. They're the ones who did their utmost to shout down dissenting voices in the name of "not letting the perfect be the enemy of the good."

Good? Good? The pwoggie blogs actually characterized these corporate-owned war-mongering scumbag republicrats as "good." Astonishing, nu? And now that they've got their corporate-owned war-mongering scumbag republicrats in office, they're complaining that the corporate-owned war-mongering scumbag republicrats are in fact corporate-owned war-mongering scumbag republicrats!

Truly, there can be only one rational, thoughtful, compassionate response to this kind of behavior.

  1. What a bunch of puling maroons. The outcome of the Most Important Whatsit was entirely predictable. And, as it happens, it was predicted. Accurately. So was their whining and dismay.

    The purple finger of contempt is really the best they can expect.

  2. Hmmm...lots of chittering and dashing about with their tails in the air. Looks to me like any given day at DailyKo$.

  3. There goes Schumann again, doing his level best to give the First Amendment two black eyes before breakfast...

    [sigh]

  4. Ms. Xeno, I'm striving for a realist's accommodation of the good with the perfect as the enemy of the lesser moral evil vanity in order to take back half a loaf of the country better than none! Purity can't change is hope, moral relativism, however wingnut rhetoric of the Nader narrative isn't efficacy, as you may know.

  5. Dude, put down that half-a-loaf. That brown coloring doesn't come from organic rye berries and a long, slow baking time.

    Oh, and those "seeds"... aren't seeds.

    You'll thank me later on.

  6. Now, now, Ms. Xeno, what might appear to be the product of mild schizophrenia and severe drug abuse (with lousy drugs) is actually the qualification for a job at the Center for American Pwogwess. I defy any of their "scholars" to pack more wildly inapposite, hopelessly inane bromidic sentiments into as few sentences.

  7. And once again Al and Ms. X have made me snort coffee though my sinuses. Do you guys know how painful that is?

  8. Ppphht.

    You shouldn't be drinking coffee at this hour, anyway. (You'll be up all night.) No matter how boring most of Pwogland is.

    Just do what I do: Offer your roommate/partner/spouse/love-slave a dollar to drop scoops of shave ice down your back any time your eyes are in imminent danger of glazing over. Works like a charm.

    I recommend forgoing syrup with your ice, though of course, so long as both parties consent... age of majority blah blah blah...

  9. "Just wait til the next election, we'll get 80% Democrats in Congress then those mean Repubs won't be able to scare us into being valets for bankers and warmongers anymore!"

    That's a memo I intercepted from Obamaniacs.com It's remarkable how the best excuse the Dem apologists can come up with is that their team is "gutless," "cowardly," etc., just don't think we are warmongers or banksters, just cowards, I swear!

  10. Ms X, I only took to drinking coffee (to deaden the nausea caused by over-exposure to pwog blogs) because the heroin stopped working.

    Good point, and it can't be emphasized enough. Which brings up a question. Which is more disfunctional: that this current crop of demotards can't face how corrupt their party is or that they regard politics much in the same way that they regard high school football?
