ok, I've been over at the DU for a while just to see what the mood is over there, and I'm seeing thread after thread either (1) calling for anarchy and protests... or (2) abandoning the democratic party and moving forward with their "Progressive" plans....
Now, forgive me if I'm wrong.... but isn't the word "Progressive" usually used by underground communists back during the Red Scare era? Are these guys serious?!
Don't let them get away with naming themselves "Progressives"..Call them what they are..LIBERALS!
Most of the DUmmies are "progressives", yes. About half the Demparty is "progressive."
They are the Socialist group - no matter what term they use -
in my opinion -
What a long - but great - night ()
Hey, who cares - let them splinter.
Encourage them to Splinter.
Don't worry about labels.
After all, they could run someone worse then Traitor Kerry if they stick together. (Hillery).
BY ALL MEANS encourage them to splinter!!
I believe you mean "commie bastards"
'Progressive' is communist. They changed their name to escape the stigma, to deceive people.
but isn't the word "Progressive" usually used by underground communists back during the Red Scare era? Are these guys serious?!
Yes.
Of course. This is what the Democrat Party has degenerated into folks.
People who call themselfs PROGRESSIVES are from the hardcore green/socicalist faction of the democrat party. They are the bozos who run the lame radio stations like Pacifica and websites like Indymedia.
As opposed to regular union member democrats. Regardless of what you hear on this site most of the democrats like to keep far away from these bozos when they can. Sadly they decided to court these morons this election cycle like never before.
To give you a face the woman who roasted bill clinton on the radio station in NYC a few years ago is an example of "progressives".
Here is her website.

They are past the liberal stage, they are bona fide commies. Some of them will fight You if You call them that, they don't really know.
The thing to remember is that for the Kerry's and the Clinton's the charm of communism is that they plan to crack the whips. No way do they want to cut cane with the Peons!
I think that all threats must be seriously considered, everyone be careful, and prepared.
Don't call them "liberal" either. They're far-left socialists.
How about
Neo-communist socialists
Yes, it is an attempt to shake the "L" word. And I hope the continue it. It's at worst a further marginalization of the dems out of the mainstream. At best, it fractures their party.
Here in Texas, some of the craftier anti-capitalist have been trying out the moniker "Populist" to have a more rural flair, dust-bowl, Grapes of Wrath flair.
The biggest miscreant in this regard is Jim Hightower, who wears a cowboy hat and affects a twang, though he's a city boy lib.
When lemmings are dead set to go over the cliff, the best policy is to stand aside and watch.
