Republican light?

Say it ain't so!

"This is about one thing. About a party and it's people that preached a principle and about a man who ignored that principle just to get on the ballot and without a doubt be used to help the donating party to win. This is about a principle that has been extolled way too many times here at DU as the reasons why the Green Party is better than the democrats. And yes, this is just one candidate - but he is YOUR candidate. I mean I'd like to disown Joe Lieberman but lets face it he is a democrat and part of our baggage too."

Also note that their Presidential candidate did the same thing in 2004. The perfect progressive guy they ran in 2000 took money from Republicans such as the swift boat vets to hurt progressive causes. And, lest we not forget when they critique they use language such as "the Democrats are X" without singling out those who deserve our support/accolades. I, in turn, plan to use that same language.
