I didn't say "progressives" hate Gore. In fact, I said the opposite. "Progressives" hate Clinton for being DLC (not just Bill, but Hillary also), but love Gore despite his role in the creation of the DLC. I don't want to rehash the primaries but I can drag up plenty of examples from that era. People with Al Gore avatars calling you DLC is always funny.

And I wasn't bashing Liberals or Progressives, in fact I'd reckon that on an ideological level I'm more to the left than most of DU. I was specifically bashing "Progressives," the people who demand ideological purity and imply that those who don't conform to their views are "war-mongering-DLC-corporatists"
