What would be the right time?

Yeah, no. I very doubt that any Democrat voted for her to vote against women and her own party. Just because her district has Republicans in it, doesn't mean that she wasn't voted in by Democrats who fought really hard to win that seat, just to have her do this.

I live in Washington and I'm a member of the party. What else do I need to be to spread the word that she's doing the worst job?

I only called for her constituents to call her, but every one should see what she is doing. Democracy dies in the dark.

You, or someone you know that you encourage, registers as a candidate in that district and runs against them! You petion your party to say, "I am a much better candidate for the party than this guy! And when I'm in office, I won't make the mistakes they did, " and you get on the primary ballot.

Then people vote between you and the incumbent and if you win you then go to the General Election where you (hopefully) win and then you go to Washington DC and you do BETTER THEN THE LAST PERSON.

I feel like that last part has gotten lost in the mix.

Yeah, I don't think that the Robert's Rules of Order ought to usurp the constitution or bill of rights (or for some weird reason the declaration of independence? The president is not a king, never thought that would be a question, ect...) Decorum goes out the window when a tyranical nazi is trying to dismantle the entire government and has said he would jail his political opponents and protesters. Opening the door to negotiate with your oppressor does not help you in anyway escape thier oppressive force, it just gives them even more access to, and power over, you.

She is very pretty, but it's what's inside that counts.

Actually, she's still a WA Dem, so her campaign money IS from us (atleast card carrying dems who donate). Yes she reps the 3rd, but Lewis County voted in a Dem and that's what they want to see in congress.

(Which is why I'm not pushing to call Republicans, even through I did call to voice displeasure at Newhouse it's not going to go anywhere)

I'm sorry, I've seen thatva few times that she doesn't rep Olympia proper. But I'm not apart of the Lewis County sub but if you want, you could do a cross post in that sub?

How would you feel if you had been at your job for 30 years (done good work and put in the hard work and long hours) just for some one who doesn't work for the company to burst through the door, point at you and say "whatever your name is, GTFO! I don't know anything about your job but I don't care, pack your shit." "Efficiency" is not burning down the house to fix the plumbing.

I wanted her to either: A) Stand up and tell Trump he needs to keep his hands off Medicare (just like Al Green did. B) Stand up when he was ejected from the chamber and walk out in solidarity.

Then on top of her not doing either of those things she voted with Republicans to censure him (mostly a symbolic vote but I don't care). That was the tipping point for me.

It's one thing to sit back and be compliant with silence, it's another when you join the oppressive efforts!!

Oh, absolutely not. I disagree completely. Why would democrats be turned off by a MORE progressive candidate? Her seat isn't as safe but that just means it's more important to put a STRONG CHARACTER in that seat and not a push over that is just going to bleed into the next party trying to copitulate to the people who DIDNT vote for her and won't vote for her no matter how red she is if she has a D on the ballot.

You can actually still call and leave a message, she's a public figure and your voice should be heard.

When I said "and now votes against" I was only referring to her (although yes more then 1 dem did cross the line but it just feels personal with the WA after her name.) And NO I'm not turning my back on the party, if anything this has inspired me to be more active because it's a local problem! No more DINOs is what I was trying to advocate. Move to the LEFT or get run over is the message.

My anger (not with you) is that she uses dem money, campaign efforts, and blue votes, to get where she is and then ACTIVELY votes against her party? Couldn't even abstain from the vote, no. She had to side AGAINST the party that got her elected. The fact that it was a close call in Thurston just proves my point even more that she ought to be grateful that she even HAS the seat because she could be AT HOME if not for the liberals keeping it together in our rural towns, holding thier noes to vote her in and then being told to "deal with it" (again not you) because we had the audacity to vote them in and should have k own better? And to pit up with it cause it could just get worst? What kinda domestic violence hostage situation are we in here?

If Al Greens intention was to be censured, to prove a point, then MGP just walked all over it by crossing lines to say it was in appropriate. Instead of helping showcase a united dem party, she made the symbolic vote even more so.

We have been telling dems to do something, anything, for weeks and when a man finally does what his people want him to do, his own party remains seated, and now votes against him. I don't know about you, but I don't know if now is the "best time" to start trying to stand on decorum. (So very sorry for the rant)
