"The Republican Party's leaders have set America on an extraordinarily dangerous path. We are no longer just debating the merits of one policy over another. It's far more fundamental than that. The far right seems set on a path that challenges the fundamentals of how we make our democracy work best for all of us. I can't literally sit in your living room and talk about what's going on and how we need to rise to the occasion. So, I've chosen the next best thing, recording a video message that I hope each and every member of the johnkerry.com community will take the time to watch.

It's essential for us to come together right now because, every day, Republican leaders are crossing lines that should never be crossed:
* The line that says a leader in the House of Representatives should never carelessly threaten or intimidate federal judges.
* The line that says a leader in the Senate should never accuse those who disagree with his political tactics of waging a war against people of faith.
* The line that says respect for core constitutional principles should never be undermined by a political party's quest for power.
* And, most important of all, the line that says a political party's leaders should never let their obsession with amassing power overwhelm the needs and interests of America's families. "
I am so sick and tired of Democrats acting like hypocrites to cover their butts, so they won't look as horrible as they really are. Why don't they just get themselves back to the Senate floor and actually DO something about the problems that they are supposedly facing (i.e., the problems that they're going around the country complaining about)? They're too stupid to know what to do or they're too scared of something. I swear, moving to Danger Island may not be such a bad idea after all. No stupid liberals to deal with.
