I’m really not certain if writing this post is worth it. I’m also not certain I want to go down this road again. Truth is… I’m weary. Even sadder, I’m tuning out.
First, this isn’t a post about policy – it’s about tone.
On that note, I have a few questions for certain Progressives/Liberals/Democrats:
What is your end goal? How does calling the President a liar, a corporate shill, a weakling, etc. advance your agenda?
For those calling to primary Obama… Realistically, how do you see this working? If your explanation concludes with a President Kucinich or Nader, try again.
What is most frustrating is that I see very little difference between the calls on the left to primary Obama and the calls on the right to impeach him. And that is where tone comes into play. I’d suggest toning down the personal attacks, but I’m certain that some would claim that makes me anti free-speech.
