Wow, only 67% of democrats? Seems pretty low for a progressive party...
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped. Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses. Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder. Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."   (January 4, 2014 at 6:56 pm)oukoida Wrote: Wow, only 67% of democrats? Seems pretty low for a progressive party... Since when are the Democrats progressive?
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
Well I admit I don't know much about politics in the USA, but I've always thought they were pretty much the progressive counterpart to the conservative republicans... but again, I'm European, I might as well be oversimplifying the situation.

Pretty much, it happened by default. Although, the likes of Elizabeth Warren would not have found success in the Democratic party until recently. There are far fewer progressive Democrats than I'd like, but on the other side of the aisle, all you have is a civil war between people who want to drag America back to the Gilded Age and people who want to drag America back to the Bronze Age.

You'll find like a handful of actual, consistent lefties in our legislature. Fox "News", the Republican party and the like have managed to shift the conversation to the right, and continue to do so continuously. It's just crazy here...
The Dems are merely better than the republicunts. How much better depends on where you are.
