THE REAL POLITIK EDITION: ISSUE 54, VOLUME 84
THE THIRD WAY
How Obama and the Democrats will fail us
by Malik Isasis























If you were to go to the Democratic Leadership Council’s website you will see the headline from Politico displayed in prominent font: CABINET: Middle-of-the-Roader’s Dream. The DLC is a neoliberal organization (free-marketeers) meant to keep corporate interest ahead of the people and the website should be a testament to where the Democratic Party will take country in the next four years. Sadly, that ain’t saying much.

Obama has filled his cabinet with neoliberals, right of center Democrats who will expose a softer gentler corporatism. Obama has shot across the bow of his liberal base that he will be another Bill Clinton who squandered progressive legislation in return for bipartisanship in the form of compromising with Republicans. The sickness of Democrats needing Republicans’ approval runs deep, and often underestimated. It is Sisyphean task however, the Republicans hate the Democrats and will destroy them whenever the opportunity arises, and the Democrats will destroy the middle class to attain the love and approval of their conservative brethren.

Assimulate

The infiltration of corporate shills disguised as democratic consultants have driven the party out of the interests of the people and into the interests of corporate power. Just as the neoconservatives have subverted the Republican Party, neoliberals whose belief that the economy [think globalization] should be transferred from the control of the public sector to the private sector, has and is subverting the Democratic Party. Either way, we the people are left with our trousers at our ankles.

The Democratic Leadership Council was founded in 1985 to introduce a “third way” of winning by turning Democrats away from populism and toward globization. The DLC’s theory of winning was only reinforced when former President Bill Clinton, the council’s most well known neoliberal won two presidencies.

The DLC members read like the Who’s Who of Democrats. President Bill Clinton, Senator Hillary Clinton, Vice-President Al Gore, Senator Joseph Lieberman, Representative Harold Ford, Jr., Senator Diane Feinstein, Senator John Kerry, well-known Democratic political operative Terry McAuliffe and many more—see the list for yourself, here. Investigate any of these Democrats' records and you will find broad support of globalization, support for the Iraq invasion and occupation and corporate interests. All of these Democrats have sold their souls to become meatpuppets of the corporate lobbyists. Al Gore has since defected from the DLC and deprogrammed himself.

The DLC’s “third way” hasn’t worked in two presidential cycles [2000’s election was stolen] and four congressional cycles, yet they’re like someone playing the same numbers because it hit once. Bush and his flying monkeys fucked up so badly that the Congressional election of November 2006 the Democrats were able to limp there way into power. The same can be said of the election cycle of 2008. The Democratic consultants have pushed the Democratic Party into nearly irrelevance. if it weren't for George Bush's unfathomable ignorance in governance the Democrats would still be on the sidelines. The leadership in the Democratic Party don’t make a move without first putting a finger to the wind. Almost every choice is calculated based on a cost benefit analysis.

Susan Estrich, Pat Cadall, Juan Williams, Tammy Bruce on Fox News and a host of other Democratic consultants on CNN and MSNBC are professional bullshitters, and sellout the party roots by sustaining political status quo, in order to sustain corporate interests. They puke their bile on the air waves day after day, after day like an airborne virus infecting, constantly infecting.

In a move to remake themselves into former President Ronald Reagan, members of the Democratic Leadership Council have created a Frankenstein monster who lacks identity. This Frankenstein monster has developed a co-dependence, it needs approval of Republicans for its esteem. The DLC and their political hackery have sacrificed the Constitution for the sake of power and the maintenance of power.

The Co-op of the Democratic Party by corporatism has completed the assimilation program by multinationals, and has illuminated the limitations of a two-party system.
