153. No, but you're saying you fear it -- and that you are intimidated by it the ad --
YES . . . the MSM is in right wing hands --

so are our newspapers -- our publishing houses -- and all of the right wing think

tanks INVENTED by the right wing to underpin their elitist agenda . . .

And that's why we need Obama and Democrats to reinstitute the FAIRNESS IN BROADCASTING ACT --!!!

I'm still NOT entirely clear on what you are saying --

but YES . . . there were ads discussed which were intending to attack "blue dogs" who were

fighting health care reform which would be sponsored by the left. See Jane Hamish/Firedog Lake/?

think that's the name.

And I would heartily agree with targeting right wing Democrats ... as suggested by Michael Moore,

William Greider and many other DEMOCRATS!!!

When progressives and liberals move from the Democratic Party -- and I'm unsure whether that

will ever happen -- they have to move in a BLOC --

And, we probably need IRV voting to protect any such movement --

How far are we from that among Democrats who want to protect the two-party system????

Again -- we all push for liberal/progressive action which will benefit the nation and all it's

people -- what we have now is elitist government for the benefit of the few.

And -- I don't think that FEAR-based debate is going to move any debate forward --

it simply lends itself to arguing for the "lesser of evils" and compromising with the enemy.
