That’s a big reason why I framed this the way I did. Clinton is the past. Progressives are about the future.

Do people find it difficult to tolerate the intolerant?
Not often enough.

Mainstream media: journalists look for favor from the establishment, and it does not make a difference to them whether it leans to the right or left, (it’s relatively safe to gamble on the winner,) but the corporate owners that they work for are right wing.

The reality is that they are forced to operate in secret and cover up their mistakes because the right wing movement is based almost entirely on deceit and illusion? They have to spin the words of philosophers in order to make them agree with their peculiar and unacceptable point of view.

Why do superstition and prejudice have to become acceptable in order for progressives to thrive? Where are the arguments that support the progressive point of view for civilization building? History supports this view, not the direction of the aggressive right wing barbarians motivated by a lust for power and and a need for superstition to manipulate the masses.

The theocracy that America is fighting against has a right wing view of the world. As much as we are willing to fight it there, we must be willing to fight it here.

Nah…let’s continue to embrace John Kerry and his 48%…that’s the ticket to victory!

Different parts of a political movement perform different roles. Statesmen speak as statesmen, though our right wing visitors (here to applaud Obama and the fruitless, self-defeating effort of progressives to court the right wing base)find many occasions to bash Gore for speaking bluntly.

We in this part of the ecosystem speak aggressively and build a movement that creates the conditions for leading statemens to rpesent themselves as above it all, because we’ve already done the hard work for them. We’re like right wing radio, only we’re addicted to truth serum, not oxycotin.

Diversity of tactics, my friend.

I’m glad we’re still on this. May we return to it again.
