And my humanity gets question!?!?!? Who the hell are you to call anyone an animal. They don't agree with your politics and have chosen a violent path. This doesn't make them animals, it makes them radicals.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: I really liked the site. I'm going to add my own pic bc there aren't enough OLD people on it! And speaking of coalition-building... This is kind of a shaggy dog story, so I hope you stick with it... I have a "Nothing Accomplished" bumper sticker on my car (that I refuse to take off) and because of that I found a business card on my windshield that said "come to the potluck tomorrow" from someone I have known for years at work. She works in a different department and had no idea of my politics (or my car!) and I had no idea of her politics. It turns out that there were a LOT of people from different departments at that potluck. People I had no idea carried the pissed-off progressive banner. I hate to use that over-used word "liberating", but it was that kind of experience. Which made me realize a couple of things.... Progressives, leftists, liberals... however we identify ourselves... obviously feel pretty defensively "in the closet" if a simple potluck can be so freeing. Unlike right-wingers who can gather in churches of similar persuasion, the left does not have similarly accessible meeting places. (Unitarian churches are few and far between, and unions sold out in the political realm ages ago.) And while the internet can serve as a crystalizing point for progressive opinion, it's ineffective for getting some things done. And nothing compares to the feeling of relief and fellowship when you meet people who feel as you do and realize that you're not alone. So... we intend to do this regularly. Keep reaching out- even in unlikely places (like work). You might be surprised who'll reach back!!

Quote:Yawn. Reaching out and building peace, with a little "please pity us, we lost". Just a bunch of sour grapes, people. I've accepted Kerry resignation speech, why can't you? Now you can work for 2008, maybe even "Billary" Clinton.
