Centrism.biz: Scathing New Parody Site Rips Mask Off 'Zombie Neoliberalism'

From the article:

But what about an online home for the dedicated centrists: for those who prefer small ideas to large ones; for those who oppose both fascism and universal healthcare; for those who take money from the murderous Saudi regime and still claim to value human rights?
Centrists, the wait is finally over: Centrism.biz is the brand new, one-stop shop for all things "moderate."

NOTE: Launched by Canadian comedy writer Scott Vrooman, Centrism.biz is obviously a parody—a rebuke of centrist ideas rather than an embrace of them.

All other Dems should be primaries for one reason or another, so I have heard from those who despise "centrists". What a crock of shit.

It is SO true. Look at how many Dems voted for the recent bill that gave the Pentagon $700 billion. I love the Values page- completely blank. Reminds me of so many elected officials.
