I just have a question which i stated at DKos based on a new york time article, Hillary Clinton is for the escalation of the war.
So I am looking for an explanation of how progressive she was/is? From Iraq vote, to protecting NAFTA, i just need an explanation.
I think I saw alot of revolt on Kuccinch on the site.
I have to ask another question:
What is a progressive?
What is a liberal?
What is a democrat?
It seems like 3 separate identities.

Agreed 10000000%%%%
They have all found their black slave they want to control. I tell folks at the end of the day Obama will be fine, last i remember Carter was doing well and Bush etc…
What the fuck is a progressive? I almost feel their actions are based on how they feel at a particular moment.

They seem to believe that if you swapped out Obama for Kucinich he would be able to get single payer or a robust public option through congress. How, I don't know. They could only get 220 votes for a weak PO in the house.

If it's the same exhibit I saw awhile ago at our local Mexican Museum, it's fabulous.
