338. I said nothing of the kind, but oh well.
thanks for the dishonest twisting of what I wrote. How predictable.

and though I agree with you on this:

If you want real change in this government and this country, then we need to free our party and our government from the corporate ties that bind it, including those in the DLC. The first step would be to pass a law, or an amendment even, mandating publicly financed elections for each and every office, from dog catcher to president.

It's not going to happen between now and 2008. It's important to advocate for publically financed elections, but it's not going to happen until we do get more dems in office in D.C., and empower the liberals there, and the ones that we elect. The repukes sure as shit won't do it.

I'm all for advocating for change right now, but also dealing with reality as well.
