Weiner the Whining Weakling

Knoxville @ Fire Dog Lake - Ok. Now we have people running around the Lake displaying an email from Rep. Anthony Weiner entitled “Let’s talk about it,” which the congressman sent to former supporters yesterday to invite us to join him for a chat session. In the email, Weiner says that he just doesn’t know what to do as he tries to save some little scrap of what once was health care reform. He says that he wants our feedback.

Seriously.

My response:

Weiner,

We don’t need you to hold our hands as we go through any stages of grief until we accept that Barack Obama and this Democratic Congress failed us miserably so that we can fall in line for the midterm elections.

You’re not doing yourself any favors with this mealy-mouthed bullshit.

Get on the right side of this issue.

No? Not courageous enough to do it because it’s the right thing to do?

Well take a look at the polls. Do it to save yourself politically from the impending freefall as the corporatist Democrats and their enablers drive the Democratic Party off a cliff.

You must announce today that you will vote against this fucking turd and start demanding that congressional leaders use the reconciliation process.

Do it because it’s right. Do it to save your own ass. Either way, just do it.

There’s nothing else to discuss.

Obviously, I have no intention of wasting my time by talking about it with Weiner.

But for those of you who are thinking about wasting your time chatting with Weiner, you need to read the email he sent out to former supporters on Dec 15 first: Read more.
