1. It isn't a question of not being progressive enough, it is their unwillingness to work within the

Democratic party, and the leadership of that group going out of their way to take swipes at the Democratic Party, as though other opinions don't count

2. EXACTLY!! "...their unwillingness to work within the Democratic Party..."

It's just one mistake after another... a series of unforced error, blunders and gaffes. Are the people who make these mistakes TOTALLY unaware of what they're doing? Or do they actually consciously realize it (fully understanding how abrasive and offensive their swipes and low-blows are) and just not care what the consequences are? Do they not care about the division and the resentment and the DISTRUST that such behavior causes? Do they not realize that these things WEAKEN our party?

How does that old saying go? Something about "being with us, or against us" ... remember that one? Does it apply here?

3. Sorry, I have been "one of those people" all my life.

4. And who gets to define who is progressive enough?

Is there a Progressive Panel? Is it like a Death Panel?
