For the first time since the 60's we have the left running on moral issues other than the right to choose. And that feels so damn good, I can’t even tell you. 

The idea that saying, “We need to have answers ready for the questions voters will ask if we expect them to support us in the coming election and those to follow” is somehow a bad thing absolutely beggars belief.

It’s the functional equivalent to saying, “If you do not already understand this thing and agree…

Adults only need to be Very Serious about how to pay for programs which help Americans. Programs which involve killing goat herders and women with multi-million dollar munitions fired from unmanned drones don’t need no stinkin’ pay fors.

We should have expected this from Barack Obama. He is, at best, a centrist on his actual congressional record. Which is why he was elected president. He really wasn’t very progressive.

To be fair, people knew what they were voting for when they put Obama in office. His record spoke for itself. I used to get flambeed for saying he would have fit pretty well in with the last of the moderate Republicans of the 1980's. Obama’s policy was actually to the right of people like Senator John Heinz (before he…

His first remark upon trump’s election was to the effect of maybe the country was not ready for me. Not a single moment to reflect on his betrayed promises that also helped paved the way for a demagogue.

He has lots to teach Democrats about bailing out the rich, picking on immigrants, murdering civilians with drones, and letting the rich profit off dying people.  

Democrats are such losers these days. They see all this energy and excitement in the party and all they can think is how to stop it. Just shows you how much money has corrupted Democrats. My opinion of Obama keeps going down and down. He’s got some nerve saying that when he decided to help out Wall Street instead of…

I’m sick of having nothing but bad choices but to me at least there’s a big difference between someone like Bernie who might be clueless but at least is pointed in the right direction and Harris who was a literal foot soldier for mass incarceration and the police state. Shit like this why people don’t vote at all.

I swear I’m not trying to be snarky here, but what platform is Beto even running on? He just seems like a charismatic dude who was almost able pull of an upset in a deep red district. I’ve already seem him flip flop on universal healthcare in the time since he was running for senate and now. I’m just truly mystified…

Eat enough shrooms and you’ll get there eventually.

Beto running for VP is exhausting. I can’t imagine being his wife and kids.

Splinter didn’t exist in 2016.

I think they were ridding on the old saying, “In order for evil to flourish, it is only necessary for good people to do nothing.” If you have a platform, and you ignore the problem or use it for tepid crap like “Both sides have a point” or “Criticism of Israel is anti-semitism” then you contribute to the cultural…

“Your interpretation of our tweet is completely wrong! You killed people with it! Our interpretation of your tweet is completely right! Apologize to us! On video and on the internets!”

Just so you know, there are also activists who will run people out in Bernie shirts at various events just to cause trouble. This happened at a Trump event in Chicago, where our local machine congressman Gutierrez gave Bernie shirts to a bunch of local union types to go in and cause a scene, after which Trump…

I think her “as an American” bit encouraged and lended legitimacy to a bad-faith pile-on directed at the only hijabi member of congress. That kind of rhetoric contributes to the global current of Islamophobia from which these kinds of attacks grow. A bunch of right wing chuds jumping in to express solidarity with a…

If you think the word leftist is only used by the alt-right, you need to get out more. Maybe meet a leftist!

Love that an entire section of the liberal population now has had their brain poisoned by the russiagate shit. Amazing.

You didn’t even read the article.  Just the headline and immediately posted like an asshole.  Libby should grey your troll ass for being a non contributing chud.    If what she said was so stupid you would have contributed with a reasoned, factual takedown of what she said.  Instead you posted some boring stupid troll…
