>>Palin reinforces the overall message of the reactionary right, which has been in play since 1980, that social justice is liberal-radical, that minorities and immigrants, being different from “us” pure American types, can be ignored, that progressivism takes too much effort and globalism is a foreign threat<<

Wrong-o Deepak. Her husband is native American. Have you noticed?

It's a good thing that Deepak Chopra is so well-known for his serenity and his opposition to judgmentalism.

Otherwise, this might look like an badly-written hitpiece by a snake oil salesman.

It would be a shame to elect another Reagan, whose smiling persona was a stalking horse for the reactionary forces that have brought us to the demoralized state we are in.

What a crock.

He should stick to dispensing his quackery type of woo-woo “medical advice.”

Wow, Chopra is a nutty wind-bag.

It’s too bad for him and others, but I understand the difficulty of spirituality more than ever now.

You should have added the BARF ALERT warning. Dumbpak Chopra has the same argumentative skills as a DailyKos poster:

“1. Small town values — a nostaligic return to simpler times disguises a denial of America’s global role, a return to petty, small-minded parochialism. 2. Ignorance of world affairs — a repudiation of the need to repair America’s image abroad.”

Oh boy. I think he should stick to scamming people with his “enlightenment” routine.

My husband and I listened to him on PBS once. After about a 1/2 hour we both looked at each other and said,”What’s he saying?” Neither one of us could understand his point, so we turned it off. That’s all I know about Deepak Chopra.

Rigid stands on ... abortion — a scornful repudiation that these issues can be negotiated with those who disagree.

Most, though not all, pro-lifers want Roe repudiated so the abortion issue will be returned to the states and the political process.

IOW, pro-lifers want to negotiate and compromise the issue. It's the abortion fans who refuse to negotiate.

Anti-Chopra Sarcasm Torpedo ARMED. FIRE!

What's that you're saying, DEEPAK?

Afraid of your scam coming to an end?

You might have to go to this.

A Democrat said it so it must be TRUE!

Cheers!

I used to respect Chopra, and admire his writing. I just got over that. He's an overeducated fool. He missed the boat in all known ways.
