DKos Says: I Will NOT Calm The Fuck Down!

In a defiant diary, this writer rebukes a previous call for DKos members to calm down and discuss issues other than torture.

"I won't. My anger is righteous and I'm entitled to it."

There is a larger issue. Liberals seem outraged because they feel they are not being heard. So they scream louder. But, everyone hears them. All the time. Nonstop. That's the problem.

The liberal's own party barely listens to them. Why should they? The liberals have proven to be irrational and disproportionate in their outrage.

People have a hard time listening to the lunatic left, even when the left has a valid point. No one likes to be scolded or shouted at. But, that seems to be the only way liberals know how to make a point. There is no calmness for their outrage over the war in Iraq. And there is no calmness over WalMart cashiers making $8 an hour.

Perhaps, the angry left would be taken seriously if they offered a solution along with their rage. But, for every issue, the left's solution is either to do nothing or embrace Socialism.

Social Security? We cannot let citizens have their own accounts. Keep it 100% in government control.
WalMart? Evil. Government should dramatically raise the minimum wage.
College Tuition to high? Government should pay for it.
Healthcare costs too high? Government should pay for it.
School choice? Only government controlled education is allowed.
Taxes? Should be raised because government knows better than citizens on how to spend it.
Paycheck too small? Government will mandate a pay raise.
Rent too high? Government will control the price.
Make too much money? Government will take more of it.
Iraq? Shouldn't be there.
If not Iraq, where? Darfur
Spying on terrorists? No
Prisoners of War? No
Aggressive Interrogation? No.
Ethnic Profiling at airports? No.
Stop illegal immigration? No.
Health Savings Accounts? No.
Make English official language? No.

There is no alternative plan from the liberals that 1) doesn't tie the nation's hands behind it's back, and 2) doesn't push the nation towards Socialism. Additionally, every one of the issues listed above evokes outrage from the left. So, in the end, no one really takes liberals seriously. The nation rewards or punishes Republicans based on Republican ideas, not on Democratic alternatives.

For the sake of having a strong two party government, please calm down.
For the sake of the Republican Party, please do NOT calm the fuck down.
