14. TOS confusion

Democratic Underground - fighting for democratic principles and ideas. And what are we to do when our own turn on we the people to feed the rich again? These 9 are far more likely to listen to us than any republicans ever would. So time to blast their phones and emails and remind them that this is simply not acceptable. And I would like to see our leadership call these people out. Party discipline in the face of what is coming down is critical, and yet these shitty deals are struck and many of us find our hands and tongues tied? I think these folks deserve every criticism they get!
