◼ So many of the causes that motivated them before -- opposing torture, war, corporate America, and the surveillance state -- have been pushed aside in favor of defending the President and opposing "the far-Right." - Timothy P. Carney/Washington Examiner @tpcarney
...Defending a corporate welfare agency. Attacking the critics of intrusive federal anti-terrorism measures. Giving a President the benefit of the doubt regarding the jailing of journalists critical of U.S. foreign policy. Ignoring multiple, deadly, ongoing, unauthorized wars. Celebrating military victory over a weak country as if creates moral legitimacy. Keeping Guantanamo Bay open.
What has happened to the American Left?
Barack Obama happened, that's what.
