Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Your Wednesday Morning Takedown

Wherein a former front pager at Daily Kos points out that they have become Faily Kos.  Ha, see what I did!

I guess this comes down to two camps on the left.

You either want what you want or want what you can get.

Obama seems to be in such a hurry to get things done, he often gives away too much to get it done.  On the other hand, he has gotten things done that are pretty damned impressive.

If liberals wind up killing the tax cut deal, they will likely end up with a double dip recession and we can all bemoan President Palin's attempt to replace tax payments with moose meat.

But bemoaning things seems to be the raison d'etre of the Internets.
