This is from an email I received from Debbie Wasserman Schultz, head of the DNC.
This has been a big week for Democrats, Reisa, and if you're feeling as fired up as I am, I hope you'll show it by becoming an official DNC member for 2015.
This was my reply.
No, I'm not fired up, I'm disgusted. There was no big week for Democrats. None of you has a backbone except for Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. None of you speak with any force of authority. You couch all your words in polite crap. You don't call out those GOP bastards the way you should. You tiptoe around issues with words formulated from the "Book of Well Behaved Words."
I don't see the anger that most Democrats in the real world are feeling. If you really knew what rank and file Democrats were feeling, your remarks to those GOP bastards would be laced with the vocabulary of a salty sailor. Instead, you speak with bland, uninspiring words and thoughts.
And all you do is keep sending me emails begging for money. Get a backbone. Use words that are fiery and back them up. Understand that your constituency is not happy with your mediocre, flaccid, nerveless performance. Until the Democratic Party changes to a dynamic, fire-breathing, take no prisoners entity, go lick your wounds and stop crying for money. Make the change. There is no other way.
In the meantime, I'll continue to fight for the Progressive, liberal things I believe in. I just hope you can catch up.
