    Hey AngryDems! Quit griping; just take back your party

    I get it. You're angry with the incompetent, self-serving, tone-deaf leadership of the Democratic Party. Just don't try to tell me you're surprised.

    The good news is: the solution is at your fingertips. Channel that anger! It's a midterm election year -- traditional time for throwing out incumbents. Just beat the Republicans to the punch by primarying the asses off all these pseudo-Democratic dickheads. Not all of them, of course. There are at least a handful who stand with and for the common man. But there's a long list of corporatist anti-progressives who can go.

    Don't worry that such a move risks tossing a few seats to the opposition. The legislators you have now weren't about to get any decent legislation passed anyway -- not with a mere 59 seats out of 100. No, that would be "mathematically impossible."

    Be forewarned: it will take a few election cycles before Americans get the Congress they need. But this is the only way. No one said democracy was easy.
