I'm not in a constant state of self-righteous indignation. Can I cut it as a Progessive?   I always thought of myself as a "liberal," but this whole "progressive" thing seems so much cooler.

Problem is, I don't consider every decision made by Barack Obama a personal insult or a slap in the face. I'm starting to worry I just don't have the constitution to be a progressive. Is this something I can learn? Can anyone offer any advice?

 
Sorry Walter false indignation is the most important part of the liberal platform LEAVE NOW! :-) The homos are really up in arms there today{Yes I know...what day aren't they? :-)}http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=7995683&mesg_id=7995683

13. Well, I don't like the Warren choice at all.
 Unfortunately, I think Obama has done a pretty good job putting his cabinet together. Not perfect -- but I'm also not apoplectic about it.

I realize that if I'm aspiring to be a true progressive I should be feeling an uncontrollable rage toward Obama right about now. And I'm just not feeling it. It's quite discouraging. Looks like I can't hang with the cool kids yet again. 
 
Yes Walter YOU FAIL! But you're a good mole! :-)

Without baseless indignation and phony outrage, liberals have no way to attempt to steer their dishonesty and hatefulness down the roads of normal society. 

It is all about masking logic and reason and preventing people from thinking.
