(12,233 posts)Pretty heavy assertions to assume about other people and what they think, how they think, and what their daily lives are sub subsisting of.
You cannot duck your head in the sand or stand behind a bad idea no matter who's it is, because we all know, unless there is major public pushback, the only voices in most people's rooms are those handing over wads of campaign cash.  So, if there is a bad plan or name floated, push back.  
If there is a despot doing horrible things to other people in a complicated civil war with world wide consequences, guns blazing and spurs rattling aren't always the most appropriate response.
This board to me has been somewhat, at times, a haven where normally like minded or intelligent people can discuss issues of the day... At times it's messy and, of course, we have infiltrators who wish to cause discourse.  
I'm tired of "liberal" being perceived as something that is inappropriate or something we cannot achieve.  Mostly, we have been right more than wrong on many issues.  We aren't stupid either, we know we are up against the coprorate over lords and the likes of the Koch Bros... That being said, there is no reason we shouldn't try and try and try again .
