The Heart of the Problem
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/01/12...tail=email

Quote:Sean Patrick Maloney is clearly an adept of the Clinton Wing of the Democratic Party. The Wing that is in charge. The Wing that Barack Obama ceded the Economy to. The Neoliberal Wing that will fight like tigers for gay marriage and other social causes deemed harmless by the Masters of Money, then sell out all of the American People by propping up the failed Status Quo of Casino Capitalism.

Economic Justice is the ONLY issue. Every other issue flows from this. Democrats need to decide what it means to be a Democrat.

I'm a business person and I used to be considered a moderate. Now, perversely, I'm some sort of radical leftie communist in the eyes of the failed Washington Consensus and the racist "End-Times" Wacko Christians..

Who are the actual radicals?

The GOP is now radicalized and might as well change their name to the FPA (Fascist Party of America).

The Democrats are now Eisenhower Republicans. No. Wait a minute. I was born when Ike was President. The top tax rate was 90% and corporations paid in 32% of Federal tax revenue. Now it's what? 38% and 9%?--after years of deliberate capture of the apparatus of government by the corporate plutocracy? Can't anyone do MATH?

Many Democrats in power might as well be Reagan Republicans.

Progressives have no choice. You have to vote for the lesser of two evils because the greater of two evils is simply TOO evil.
