This post is spot on. I am glad you used that expression because I believe that congress is being the Republican's bitch but we the people are being the Democrats Bitch.

We keep doing the right thing strategically as part of the Democratic party... joining it, working the pavement for it, holding our nose and losing friends over 3rd party defections that we know are a worthy gesture  —but still a stupid move in the current field.

WE have to deny Obama as well... but how? As you say he is looking right. What can we the people do to cause an irritant on the left? A naggy itchy problem that can't be ignored?

I think we have to hit them with an actual feet on the ground action... no not a protest. Protests aren't doing it.

Feet on the ground, marching to the town office to un-enroll from the Democratic party. That they will notice. You go, you do it, you get a copy of the registration, you put a statement and video on youtube.

I would not do it if I had a primary coming up or I lived in a state that did not have an easy registration process. In Maine we have same day registration so I am not getting out of the game. This is a gesture.

I will be embedding peoples' home made videos at: GoodbyeDemocratsImNotYourBi tch.com

I think numbers are the only thing we peasants have at this point. 

Thank you Cenk for using that expression which caught my eye this morning and gave me the courage to get this action going once more. (It made the upper left corner of the front page at DU and was purged as being inflamatory)

I was kind of ashamed as a middle aged woman to title my video "goodbye democrats I'm not your bitch" —when I have scolded my son and his friends for using that expression— but boy when an expression fits, it just does.

It was one of your shows that inspired me to do this in the first place, and I have finally become a member...

Keep up the good work!
