Something is better than nothing. These things take time. You've got to give a little to get a little, progressives should sit down and shut up. Innuendo points to progressives being immature, unrealistic, unaware of how the real world works and ra... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./22 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 19:01:31 It's an old tale, one which says that flying too close to the sun will melt your wings but no one ever pays attention.

I have long taken comfort from that saying. The fact that there is a moral arc to the universe, that acts, on its own volition to set things right, even if it takes longer than I would wish, has held me these last 8 years. It’... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./20 Tue, 02 Dec 2008 12:26:09 Lately the term neocon has been bandied about. In the last week DUers and Obama have been branded as such. Below is a definition of what neoconservatism actually. Additionally there is a list of the signers of the PNAC, the bigwigs of the neocon movement. These are who the neocons are and what t... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./19 Thu, 20 Nov 2008 10:25:47 Enough of the *ucking nonsense of positioning, guitar playing, breakfasts at diners.

“The article, titled The American Right Under the Weather, is but one piece in the new overall issue covering the leftward shift of American politics in recent months. As anyone who has read the magazine knows, the editorial staff of The Economist is certainly no friend to Democrats, favoring a de... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./15 Fri, 10 Aug 2007 13:58:20 My point with all these progressives rising posts is that we needn't despair. In the face of evidence that would seemingly tell us we are on the losing end of what is happening in this country, we are not. The hope and changes are there, it just hasn't coalesced into a big enough picture for every... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./14 Fri, 10 Aug 2007 13:17:58 “Blessed Unrest” is not a glass-half-full book. But Hawken does imply that the movement — which he estimates at perhaps two million organizations strong — is a sign of life stirring in the beaten-up bowels of the planet, part of the earth’s own immunological response, as executed collectively (maybe... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./13 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 15:16:04 Grass Roots Rising: Paul Hawken’s “Blessed Unrest”
by Robert Sullivan

“Blessed Unrest” is about a movement that no one has noticed, not even the people involved. “The movement,” as Paul Hawken calls it, is made up of an unknowable number of citizens and mostly ragtag organizations that come and ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./12 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 15:14:51 Ever since I read the Media Matter story from several months ago I have been watching for signs that the story is true. They’re there, though underreported. The evidence is scant at this point because this country has been so been beaten over the head that we are a conservative country or at the v... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./11 Tue, 07 Aug 2007 10:30:17
As I watched KO last night I saw that smirking cretin, Jennings, tell a congressional committee that he couldn’t tell them what job he performed at the white house. That he was following the mandate in a letter from the president that claimed executive privilege. Can’t tell a committee of congre... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./10 Fri, 03 Aug 2007 10:34:55 In the past six years General Wayne Downing has been on numerous news shows, both network and cable, opining on the war. Inevitably, he has stood with the president. And to this position he seemed to bring the credibility of a military man who knew what he was talking about. What was never said, a... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Me./9 Sun, 01 Oct 2006 20:24:08 Where did they spring from
What place would allow them to be brought forth
And nourish them with mother's milk
Allow them to grow and gather strength
So that they could steal the blood
From another mother's son
