In trying to encourage the kind of forceful response that McMorrow delivered, Capehart ends up making it sound like the same old bitch about how Dems don't stand up for themselves.
Maybe you could try a tiny bit harder to keep your fire concentrated on the shitty things Republicans do all the fucking time.
And of course that plays right into the bullshit that Brooks always peddles - turning the whole thing into a generic Both Sides argument.
All of which taken together serves to freeze people in place, which always redounds to the GOP's benefit because it works to preserve the status quo.
ie:
"The Republicans are asshole bullies,
but the Democrats are namby-pamby nerds who won't fight back.
It's a mess. Stay out of it. Stay home. Don't vote."
They're killin' us with that shit.
