Look, there are a lot of talented progressives who could be in an Obama cabinet.No wonder all he's taking from these idiots is their money. Seriously, Dennis Kucinich as Secretary of State? Good grief.
Joseph Stiglitz is a Nobel Prize-winner in economics and a critic of corporate globalization. He should be Treasury Secretary.
Senator Russ Feingold is a champion of civil liberties. He should be Attorney General.
Robert Greenstein is head of Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. He would make a much better OMB director.
Arlene Holt Baker, executive vice president of the AFL-CIO, would be a tremendous Secretary of Labor.
And if Obama really wanted change, if he really wanted to honor progressives who backed him early on and then did the grunt work against McCain, he’d nominate Dennis Kucinich as Secretary of State.
That sure would indicate a welcome departure from empire as usual.
But at this point, progressives are getting absolutely nothing from Obama.
Yeah! And where's my unicorn?!?!
Ayers as head of the NEA?
EPA and DOE run by the current head of the Sierra Club and Greenpeace respectively?
The hope of the audacity of change...or whatever.
Feingold? Whoever wrote this is nuts. Feingold hates guns, loves homosexuals, and is the second part of McCain Feingold, which crushed first amendment political speech.
YEah right, attorney general. The guy wants gays to be under hate crimes laws. He’d be pushing to force states and the federal govt to accept gay marriage.
Good one. I was thinking airline barf bag.
Well, ya can’t screw someone with a barf bag... :-)
Yeah but the beauty is that Feingold is no longer representing me in the Senate.
LOL!
Will not be two years and they will be calling for zeros impeachment!
They build him up and tear him down. Sad. Poor little progressives.
Obama promised Progressives a new Amerika!
An Amerika that has flowery meadows, and rainbow skies, and rivers made of chocolate, where we could dance and laugh and play with progressive gumdrop smiles!
( /Team America)
Well, he really has nowhere to go but down in their eyes. He has been built into a demi-god when he is just an opportunist empty suit. Reality is going to be a mean, mean beyotch to these folks.
more than 3/4 of the “transition team leads” are tied to Podesta’s “Center for American Progress.”

So much for the intelligence of “progressives.”
No longer useful? As opposed to...?

If we were a 3rd World Country they would have been shot by now, they should be happy that they’re only being ignored.
They live in a fantasy world.
