Tell A Friend

By David Michael Green (about the author)     Page 3 of 3 page(s)

Progressives should count their blessings, after decades in the wilderness.

The new president and Congress show some signs of having moderately good politics, to start with.

But, as importantly, the Republicans are fielding their very best team, and it consists of transparent buffoons telling transparent lies. With lousy delivery, no less.

Best of all, though, is that they simply have nothing credible to say right now.


When the best you can offer to a frightened and submerged American public is some cheap and disingenuous rap about earmarks, along with a government that would do nothing to help, your party is going to go the same way as Herbert Hoover.

Because you are Herbert Hoover.
