You're not a very good troll are you. It's well established that there are large numbers of corporate Democrats who will float social issues as important but tend to follow through very weakly.

You know, what happened to abortion? That's an issue that we knew was coming 30 years ago. We were discussing it in the '90s. We knew that the Republicans were trying to poison the Supreme Court, and the Democrats just went along with it, pretending they were helpless when they had enough power to stop it.

And I could bring up other issues where the progressive stance was just ignored by the majority of Washington Democrats. There are so many major issues. Wars, banks, unions, monopolies, etc. But I don't think you're interested. I think you'd rather just do a little bit of name calling. Maybe I'm wrong, though. It's happened before, happens all the time.
