    I never thought I'd consider dumping Salon, but...

    Wow, Joan. You really hate those lefties! It seems that it really IS the fashion to hate the eternally ineffectual American left these days - even though they've turned out to be right on so many issues over the years.

    I thought Salon was basically a progressive site, too. But you seem as eager as Obama to dump on the left. I guess being right is the one unforgivable crime.

    I never thought I'd consider canceling my Salon subscription, but you've definitely brought the possibility to my mind.
