Howard Dean: John Boehner 'A Good Speaker' (VIDEO)


I'm sure the sort of "drama" found in "Real Housewives of ___" is nothing near what anyone should deem to tolerate.

They prove that the powers that be will not give an inch without a knock-down­, drag-out battle.



Calm and politeness are swell. But they are not a valid end product when the stakes in human lives, education, health, and Constituti­onal rights are so high right now - and the entrenched powers exert every fiber of their being into controllin­g this nation and the world.



Whereas it's certainly true that surrender may have very little drama, surrender rarely ever brings progress. A serene moral high road littered with the corpses of rights and lives sacrificed at the altar of "bipartisa­nship" isn't progress.
