Seriously, STFU
by digby
I wanted to write a long rebuttal to this insufferable screedabout how the liberals should STFU by the very, very serious Peter Beinert, but I just don't have energy. For an taste of just how bad it is, here's an example of his adorable, sunny contrarianism:
Politically, we live in fairly predictable times. The demographic shifts that have put the Democrats in power—more young voters, more Hispanic voters, more highly-educated voters—have been decades in the making, and aren’t likely to reverse themselves anytime soon. Nor are voters likely to forget George W. Bush. Obama is blessed to have taken office in the aftermath of disaster—which means that he’ll probably be judged against a low bar.
Yes, I could deconstruct that idiotic statement, but I think I'll just let reader Bill do it for me:
Little petey, war hawk and complete fucktard,
was one of those who told those who were right
about Iraq to shut up and stand in the corner.
He has no credibility whatsoever.
Couldn't have put it better myself.
