No one is waiting for this Godot...
Interesting. Godot told me about this.
We've just finished reading the relevant submissions and were sadly unsurprised to see how little support our good friend Godot, arguing against neoconservatives, got from other liberals, even though Godot was obviously in the right. To the contrary, liberals like yourself actually sided with the neoconservatives, and for all the wrong reasons.
Unfortunate, but it's happened to me also. Englishmen like myself, Canadians like Godot, and many others have noticed that American liberals really do not know who their friends are. Your progressives in general are aware they have severe problems but can't see past their own egos. Nader himself is simply notorious but it's not just him.
Democratic party operatives and various progressives have been told over the last few months, one by one, not to expect any more financial support from our groups, including U.S. groups. You've already lost to the neoconservatives again so it's a waste of good money. We can no longer help you fight your battles because you really don't seem to want it. Godot is right, but it's been people like you who convinced the rest of us. It's so sad you are so many. Greenwald should mention something about that.
Have a nice day. And have a really nice four more years. Much too short a time to keep you waiting for Godot.
