t r u t h o u t - Democrats: Get Up and Walk Out

William Rivers Pitt has one of the best (and possibly the last) ideas I've come across for Congressional Democrats to once and for all to stand up as a group and show some backbone. The idea that somehow the Democrats can stand idly by like sheep waiting for slaughter and win elections by osmosis is absurd.

"George W. Bush's delivery of the State of the Union address will take place on Tuesday, January 31, a little more than a week from now. It is my strong belief that every single Democrat present in the House chamber for the speech should, at a predetermined moment, stand up and walk out. No yelling. No heated words. Every Democrat should simply stand silently and leave."
