I only used that title to attract readers. I don't even know what an iota is. But seriously, Greenwald has brilliantly made the case for Progressives making a clean break from the stinking, spineless, and corrupt Dems 1343 times by my count. But each time, he ends up saying "Of course, it goes without saying that Obama is infinitely better than the repub alternative." By saying that, he practically begs the dems to piss on him. There is no downside for Dems to pissing on Progressives, just the way there is no downside to the repubs to pissing on the Dems. So the Progressives get pissed on by everyone.
No, Greenwald. As brilliant as you are in argumentation, you are completely insane.
The ONLY legitimate, ethical role for any Progressive at this repugnant point in the history of the United States is to adamantly oppose and denounce everyone currently in power (at the federal level). There are NO Progressives in Congress, the Executive, or the Judicial branches of the federal government (nor the 'cheney branch' for that matter). None. Zippo. Nada.
Greenwald is constitutionally incapable of accepting the inescapable implications of his own brilliant arguments.
IMPEACH Obama! Whose with me?!
