What the hell. Is it just me or are you also noticing that the former-republicans-turned-fake-liberal are completely ridiculous as John Aravosis of AMERICAblog is? A “good coup” of a democratically elected lefty government? Is he fucking [...]
I knew it. I’ve said for years that if American troops were to leave Iraq, the Iraqis would step aside and let them go without interfering. Of course, the right wing neocons of America said that would never happen! They told us that Iraq would crumble into a heap of dung and would be lost [...]

"If by a “Liberal” they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a “Liberal,” then I’m proud to say I’m a “Liberal.” ~ John F. Kennedy, 1960
