Some Democrats really need Demagoguery For Dummies

Lord have mercy! Over the last few days as Republicans tried to hold firm on spending cuts, Democrats have taken to their traditional ploy of demagoguery. Unfortunately, some of today's Democrats know nothing of the finesse their predecessors had. Some of today's Democrats are ham fisted hacks who ladle on their demagoguery so thick it becomes absurd.




Just check out some of the damn foolishness on display.

Louise Slaughter: " GOP Freshmen came to kill women"

Eleanor Holmes-Norton: "Government shutdown is like bombing innocent civilians"

How can any sane individual really believe this junk?

Merriam-Websters defines demagoguery as:

1: a leader who makes use of popular prejudices and false claims and promises in order to gain power 

2: a leader championing the cause of the common people in ancient times

But in these definitions isn't there an implied sense of credibility? Without a certain amount of credibility, these attacks leave the speakers wide open to mockery. Too bad many of today's Republicans are in desperate need of Mockery for Dummies.
