My own brother is a "progressive", so I know all about them not listening to a word we "bitter clingers" have to say.
Trouble is, everything I've told him eventually comes to pass. That's immaterial though, don'tcha know. Never let the facts get in the way of dogma and glorious theory.
“Never let the facts get in the way of dogma and glorious theory.”
Progressive supporters of cap and trade, single payer health care and “living” wages certainly don’t. I think that’s what irritates them the most about Obama. It’s not just that he’s failed to keep his promises, but that his ineptitude is SO blatant, it cannot be denied except by the very fiercest reality deniers. And they NEVER like to hear “I told you so.”
