Re: Wednesday Open Thread (none / 0)

I thought it meant whatever the listener thought it meant.

I always thought that that was the campaigns specific plan. His vague and allusive rhetoric always made me crazy.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

Everyone wants a vehicle to project their desires on.

Re: Kossacks... (none / 1)

I posted a short and quizzically critical diary there today, and the nasties were out like greenflies on cowflop. DailyKos is going through one of their famous fits of incivility amid worry about the future of Democrats and the Progressive Program.

Europe better worry, too.

Align culture with our nature.
