His endorsement, for me, is just as depressing as the day he dropped out.<BR/><BR/>He is no longer a champion for peace, social justice, and the environment...he is an apostle of another dangerous rightwing Democrat Senator.<BR/><BR/>If no progressive Democrat, including John Edwards, is willing to leave the party when all resemblance of the progressive base is lost, then we ought to change our party name, because that is NOT DEMOCRATIC.<BR/><BR/>Party loyalty got Germany Hitler and it will get us apartheid in Palestine, 15 million terrorized uninsured Americans, a stagnant minimum wage, a bigger, bloated military, continuing imperialism in Eastern Europe and South America, dangerous nuclear proliferation, falling short on gay marriage and transexual rights, little restraint on corporate crime or the prison system, perpetuating anti-unionization laws, the two party duopoly that is eyes-wide-shut to the needs of America...Barack Obama.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-279511551247964089.post-30071404160049902282008-05-14T19:06:00.000-04:002008-05-14T19:06:00.000-04:00Remember how cool it was to receive a windmill low...Remember how cool it was to receive a windmill low-five as a child?
