Robert Reich Debates Will Marshall, Progressive Policy Institute (DLC)
Last night, "On Point", locally-produced WBUR show, had an interesting show on the Democratic movement. I came away thinking that the DLC and the progressive wing of the Democratic party had more in common that I thought.

Reich was GREAT. I wish he had won the nomination for Mass. Governor-I think he would have beaten Romney.

Sorry, went to the Progressive Policy Institute site, and scrolled down and saw the "Stay and Win in Iraq" article.

More than I can stomach.

2. I worked really hard for
Reich in the gubernatorial campaign. I could tell that Shannon O' Brien had no chance of beating Mitt. Reich had real credentials and would have won. what a shame.

3. Will Marshall is a traitorous PNAC piece of shit slimeball
and Exhibit A proof of why the DLC must be booted out of the Demoncratic Party.

6. I agree to an extent
I really don't know much about DLCers, except for them calling me a leftie here on DU. I had no idea of their connection to PNAC.

:scared:

8. Check out the PNAC's own site
www.newamericancentury.org

You will find Will Marshall as a signator on the more recent "letters".

10. Oy
If you're just making your acquaintance with that nasty faction of the party, you're in for a disheartening day.
