Cheerful boos for Hillary At the YearlyKos convention, the mixed reception for Hillary Clinton is more evidence that the liberal blogosphere might not take sides in the coming Democratic primary.
  • dem'rats and faux progressivism...

    1. kos and the kossacks are NOT progressives in MANY areas (to start with, they are 'okay' with CENSORSHIP, that is NOT a progressive value); but they ARE good citizens in terms of protecting our constitution (unfortunately, under assault by BOTH parties)...

    they are NOT progressive on many issues, they ARE mainstreamers on MANY/most issues...

    (in spite of various cavils, they buy into militarism and other old school memes...)

    2. arvin hill, right fuckin' on, bro, good stuff...

    3. about had it with nervous nellies who bemoan potential third parties, but concede yes, they *are* both hydra-heads of the korporate money party; however, they still want *their* slightly-more-moral hydra-head to win anyway...

    if we don't start third (and fourth and fifth...) party movements, then the dem'rats and rethugs will have ZERO incentive to move away from their korporate masters...

    if we don't start third (etc) party movements, then we won't EVER have them, will we, you stupid, shortsighted, bleating sheeple...

    geezus h. kee-rist, people act as if dog almighty hisownself sent down the tablets with 'thou shalt be a rethug or a dem'rat, and shall worship no other party above these...' *snort*

    (further, let US adopt an 'Instant Runoff Voting' system which will allay those fears; PLUS institute a system which values the dog damn VOTES, not the bullshit goal of instantaneous voting results for the benefit of mediawhores...

    computer-based voting systems ARE NOT 'safe' systems, period...

    PAPER BALLOTS, HAND COUNTED, LOCALLY REPORTED ! ! !)

    4. if i hear one more moron slander nader for 'losing' coup 2000 to king george ii, i am going to track you down and shove punchcard chaff in your nose until you stop breathing (you've proven you are already braindead)...

    A. people don't have a right to vote their conscience, but have to vote for who *YOU* approve of ? fuck you...

    B. gorewhore and LIEBERMAN (for dog's sake!) fucked themselves up the ass so royally, they hardly needed the bush cabal to complete the act...

    C. full spectrum vote fraud was the REAL winner of coup 2000, and ANYONE who does not realize this knows NOTHING about our elections and the slime who game them... you know NOTHING, asswipes, if you don't realize these efforts are what decided coup 2000 and coup 2004... (ignorant dickheads, get over to bradblog to learn the reality of voting in amerika...)

    D. WHEN was the last time you misinformed scolds bitched out hagelin, harris, buchanan, etc voters, who ALSO had more votes than the *supposed* vote difference of about 500 votes in florida ? WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU DID THAT, ASSHOLES ?

    (oh yeah, that's right, NEVER ! there, you've just proven yourselves to be worldclass hypocrites, now shut the fuck up...)

    (not to mention, why not bash the BUSH VOTERS for a vote that is morally indefensible in comparison to voting for nader ? why not, uh duh, 'cause that doesn't make 'any sense'... uh huh...)

    5. tom70, good stuff, thanks...

    6. CENSORSHIP is wrong, most saloonists are for CENSORSHIP, therefore most saloonists are WRONGheaded... think about *that* tasty little morsel, upright, uptight, up-yours saloonistas...

    come the revolution, we will welcome a diversity of parties...
