Ooo . . . you tricked me into the Orange Place (none / 1)
Got to go shower now.  

Really, Stirling Newberry is right.  The level of thought at D.kos has dropped to almost nothing--it's all cheerleading.  A Dem version of Free Republic.  

Your piece was a very nice provocation.  Let the slaves of North America envy (and rage about) life in a civilized country!  There is a word for this:  Ressentiment.  

They won't thank you for the idea that a better way is possible.  They want to believe that their way is the only way.  

The Fates are kind.

Stirling has his own blog (which he shares with other main-pagers) The Blogging of the President 2004.

I think a major part of what's happening at dKos right now is that the Kossacks are beginning to centralize and narrow their focus in preparation for the election.  It was similar in 2004.  So, naturally, their collective IQ will appear to plunge.  They'll be focused on winning the mid-terms for the rest of the year.

Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
