"Progressives" deny jobs to South Side blacks
2009-08-03 18:40:00 If there's ever an illustration of how "progressive" elites and organized labor are keeping the very people they supposedly care about locked up on the plantation, it's their consuming opposition to a new Wal-Mart store on the South Side.

Quick, Progressives Have to Become Players in the Global Media Game Before
2008-06-06 23:43:00 AlterNet As progressives gather in Minneapolis for the fourth annual National Conference for Media Reform, the fast-moving digital media marketplace should be high on their agenda. A record wave of mergers, acquisitions and significant investment from venture capitalists is raising alarms about the impact these new players will have on a long-term social and political reform agenda. Since there's no evidence these investors are interested in anything but profit, it's up to progressive organizations to become players in the global media game. Corporate giants are on a global digital shopping spree. Google, Microsoft, and Time Warner are gobbling up leading digital media companies (the current fight between Microsoft and Google for control over troubled Yahoo is an example of this trend). Venture capitalist investment in new media start-ups, including mobile social networks and broadband video platforms, is staggering. It reflects a keen corporate awareness about how a global gene...
The Global Marshall Plan: The Network of Spiritual Progressives' Version Q
2008-04-22 04:32:00 From: Q&A on The NSP version of the Global Marshall Plan 1. What is the NSP Version of the Global Marshall Plan? The NSP is seeking to have the advanced industrial countries of the world use their resources to eliminate once and for all global poverty, homelessness, and hunger; provide quality education and health care for all; and repair the global environment. As an initial commitment, we want the U.S. to donate at least 1-2% of its Gross Domestic Product each year for the next twenty (though the amount may be less if other countries join in the effort, more if they do not). Here are the indispensable parts of the NSP version of the Plan: A. The Global Marshall Plan will not be one more aid plan that uses the concept of "generosity" as a savvy cover for the pursuit of self- and national interest. All elements of the Global Marshall Plan will be administered in ways that not only are consistent with love, kindness, generosity, compassion, ecological sen...

Progressives (and Z Net) for Obama?
2008-03-31 23:30:00 by Mickey Z. Every four years, much of the (so-called) Left gleefully drinks the Democrat’s Kool Aid. Such liberals spend three years droning on about social justice (as everything gets progressively worse) and then they throw their support behind whatever corporate-funded millionaire the Democrats nominate. This trend is no longer surprising or even noteworthy. This year, however, Lefty Inc. has managed to take things to a depressing new level of denial and acquiescence…thanks to the presence of a multi-racial carnival barker named Barack Obama. Exhibit A: The lead article on the March 29 edition of Z Net was called “Progressives for Obama.” Written by Tom Hayden, Bill Fletcher, Jr., Barbara Ehrenreich, and Danny Glover, this piece begins: “All American progressives should unite for Barack Obama.” From there, the authors go on to declare that Obama’s campaign is, in reality, a “sudden and unexpected new movement” and is not only “just what America needs” but als...
NYT on Obama: ?Can a liberal be a unifier?? Progressives: ?YES!?
2008-03-26 02:24:00 I’ve seen a lot of brain-crushingly stupid stuff coming out of the so-called “paper of record” in recent years, but this just takes the aneurysm-inducing cake: To achieve the change the country wants, he says, ?we need a leader who can finally move beyond the divisive politics of Washington and bring Democrats, independents and Republicans together to get things done.? But this promise leads, inevitably, to a question: Can such a majority be built and led by Mr. Obama, whose voting record was, by one ranking, the most liberal in the Senate last year? I love the fact that Robin Toner (or his/her editor) just threw in that “inevitably,” as if it’s just such a commonly accepted piece of wisdom that a liberal politician cannot possibly unify disparate points of view under their banner. It only gets better from there: Mr. Obama?s rise has been built in part on the idea that he represents a break from the established identities that have defined many o...

Progressives' dirty little secret
2008-02-04 22:09:00 Progressives can be just as race biased as conservatives. There, I said it. Oh, I know, the common narrative says that conservatives are the racists. And that ideological group may well harbour more members with overt hatred toward people of color. But liberals have biases, too. And as long as those biases go ignored and unexamined, progressives have no right to exude more-egalitarian-than-you smugness. Given the last several months of the presidential race, I fear a racial rift within the Democratic party is imminent if members don't open their eyes to their own prejudice.It is disappointing to see Dick Morris' predictions about the aftermath of Barack Obama's win in South Carolina come true:If Hillary loses South Carolina and the defeat serves to demonstrate Obama's ability to attract a bloc vote among black Democrats, the message will go out loud and clear to white voters that this is a racial fight. It's one thing for polls to show, as they now do, that Obama beats Hillary ...

And the next president should not try to be the anti-Bush.No, I haven't lost my mind. I'm not saying that we should look kindly on the Worst President Ever; we'll all breathe a sigh of relief when he leaves office 405 days, 2 hours, and 46 minutes from now. (Yes, a friend gave me one of those Bush countdown clocks.) Nor am I suggesting that we should forgive and forget; I very much hope that the next president will open the records and let the full story of the Bush era's outrages be told.But Bush will soon be gone. What progressives should be focused on now is taking on the political movement that brought Bush to power.

The Progressives (read liberals) Live In Fear of Ronald Wilson Reagan
2007-11-13 20:28:00 ~Snooper~I find it interesting as I read the "progressive" tripe from those that are trying, in vain I will add, to discredit America's best President we have ever had since George Washington.I lived through Reaganomics and I lived through some of the most profitable years this country has ever experienced. I witnessed the revival of American Patriotism and the defeat of the Evil Empire of the former USSR.The allegations as set forth by the likes of Bob Herbert, Talk Left, The Carpetbagger Report, Lean Left, Bark Bark Woof Woof, Lawyers, Guns and Money, and the Washington Monthly, all I can think of is the thought that these people are drunk on the talking dulls of the insignificant and uneducated.

If they did, they hated it because the Leftinistra lost at every turn.Daniel W Drezner: seeing that the NY Slimes has decided to mock the blogosphere and the opening volley is railing a...

What are Progressives Waiting For?
2007-10-10 00:43:00 by Dave Lindorff The Democrats in Congress last Spring voted $120 billion to continue funding of the War in Iraq, saying that they had been sandbagged by the administration, with its so-called “surge” strategy. They promised that come September, though, they’d take a stand and end the war. In August, the Democrats in Congress, who had been mouthing criticisms of the administration’s five-year crime spree of illegal wiretapping and internet monitoring by the National Security Agency, caved in under administration pressure and passed a “temporary” bill, authorizing that warrantless spying on Americans by the NSA. They promised, though, to “fix it” after they returned from summer recess. Now they’re back, and they are voting to approve another $190 billion to keep the Iraq War going full bloody tilt right through next year and the end of Bush’s catastrophic second term of office, guaranteeing that the next president, Republican or Democrat, will have the war as his or ...

Shapiro Calls Pushing For Same-Sex Marriage A 'Progressives' Political Tric
2007-07-26 16:14:00 Do you remember the YouTube debate question posed by a black, Southern pastor, asking why religion should be used to prevent same-sex marriage? I posted about it a few days ago, and it was one of the questions chosen for the debate. Benjamin Shapiro of WingNutDaily, though, sees the whole concept as some sort of political trick, and you won't believe why.In summing up Edwards' response to the question of imposing religion on the issue of gay marriage, Shapiro says the following..."Sen. Edwards first stated that based on his religious principles, he waspersonally opposed to same-sex marriage. Then, he retreated from his principles:"I think it is absolutely wrong, as president of the United States, for me tohave used that faith basis as a basis for denying anybody their rights, and Iwill not do that when I'm president of the United States." Ben is right (and you have no idea how much it pains me to say that, lol), Edwards' response was one of the most uncommitted, spineless, safe,...
Giving Progressives A Bad Name
2007-07-25 21:43:00 This column by Mark Schmitt appeared in the New York Times yesterday; I wasn?t familiar with Schmitt, but the bio with his column states that he is a senior fellow at the New America Foundation.The group (as noted here) is, ?a nonprofit, post-partisan, public policy institute that was established through the collaborative work of a diverse and intergenerational group of public intellectuals, civic leaders and business executives? that seeks to ?bring exceptionally promising new voices and new ideas to the fore of our nation?s public discourse? (and the fact that the group is to be headed by the fine New Yorker writer Steve Coll is promising).Given all of this, it sounded as if Schmitt?s column would be worth my time. Unfortunately, it was not (and here are some dubious excerpts)?While the absence of policy detail in the Republican presidential campaign is remarkable, Democrats go too far in the other direction.
