It would be naive of me to think of you as down the middle but I would hope you want whatever is best for the country. Most likely we all agree that is best but we have different opinions on how to achieve that. Party lines and same old same old obscure the goal.

It wouldn't be naive of you at all to think of me a down the middle. There really isn't a hard progressive voice on the board so the discussion if you can call it that is shifted to the right.

Perhaps you consider your brand of commentary progressive Spence. That is fine if you truly believe it to be but it shows a complete lack of touch with reality.

If by well read, you mean you can recite both the Communist Manifesto, and Chairman Mao's Little Red Book, I agree.

If it was "My New Order", then would you approve?

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Can't say either have ever been on my reading list. Just looked at my bookshelf and for political books it's pretty 50:50.
