You know ..... an unreconstructed, unapologetic, brilliant, articulate liberal.

Like Mario Cuomo.

Like another of my 'Greatly Admired'.

Like Barbara Jordan.

You know ..... a LIBERAL.

Like Jesus or Buddah .....

Don't they exist at the A-List presidential level any more?

yeah, there are some great liberals out there .... but not at the top .... or not stepping forward ...... or not 'electable'.

**** that.

I want a liberal.

7. I want a candidate that would make the powers that be in this country
   
wake up in a cold sweat at night. I want a candidate that literally makes conservatives stroke out of fear and anger of rolling back their reign of terror at a minimum of Reagan to today. I want a candidate that makes Poppy want to call in one last marker from his friends, someone who will lay bare republican camelot, Iran-Contra, 9/11, JFK, RFK, MLK, etc..........for all the world to see.

we killed the kennedys and MLK? :thatsright:

5. The sad fact of the matter is that those who are left of center have no party...

Obama and Hillary are a reflection of the party, they aren't DINOS as some people claim. People have a mistaken impression that the Democratic party is Liberal, or to the left, but the reality is that they are Center-Right, and no more than that.

I dunno where the serenity-impaired colonic primitive gets his measurement of ideology; according to the scientific measurements in political science textbooks, both Messalina Agrippina and the Obamanation are "far left wing."

Of course, to the primitives, Mao tse-Tung was a "centrist."

Sounds like they are hoping for a fascist dictator they can love to replace the fascist dictator they claim stole their democracy.  It makes no sense.

I have to ask, your husband being a Canadian, is he conservative? I hear all this shit about Canadians being by majority liberals, but the only ones I know, my ex-best friend (I was best man at his wedding, you've probably seen the pic) and his entire family and extended family, are ALL conservatives. His mother LOVES Savage.

He's the guy in the middle that looks like Mark Hackett:

NEW ORLEANS (MSBN) -- Mayor Ray Nagin noted in a speech today that home values were often significantly effected by the presence or absence of a swimming pool.

"It's not fair," said Nagin. "A pool in your backyard can increase property value by as much as $20,000. For someone without that economic advantage the effects can be devastating.

"So announcing today the City of New Orleans Planning Commission will be undertaking plans to ensure every citizens' backyard has at least 6-feet of standing water."



When later queried about future political ambitions the mayor treated reporters to a glimpse of his upcoming run for US congressman. While laying out his platform the mayor was asked about his stance on Roe vs Wade.

"Oh, I don't care how people get home."

Yes, I've noticed the same thing about that one - a real drama queen - the most liberal member of Congress:

Is running for POTUS, yet he's still not left enough for good old hubs.
