Nothing has changed, but now the Royal Punditry is somehow worthy of condemnation?
These people - the Fineman's & Borger's & Scarborough's and the other "reasonable people" who oh-so-sincerely claim to have the nation's best interests at heart - are not misguided or corrupt or ignorant of the facts. They are millionaire propagandists who understand the politics of power better than 99.9% of Americans, which is why they get a microphone and camera - and political representation - while the rest of us are reduced to fulminating on Salon.
Those of you who care about the future of this country need to start thinking about what it's going to take to dislodge this vile oligarchy from its entrenched seats of power -- one that doesn't involve begging to chickenshit Democrats who will sell us out EVERY SINGLE TIME just as they have done for the last twenty-five years.
