246. I'm on the far left (and the deep middle!)

Sat Jan 26, 2019, 07:54 PM

Jan 2019

....and what you are saying sounds like it doesn’t describe me. I think BOTH Bernie and Kamala Harris are great!

Please help us focus on the realities of Republican moral rot (and Russian collusion), global warming, and hyper income inequality.

THIS “far left Democrat” is pretty darn sober about the need to reverse Citizen’s United, reform our prisons, remove voting barriers and jump start the Green New Deal. In fact dozens of major Dems who wouldn’t characterize themselves as “far left” support much of the same:

Ed Markey
Joseph Kennedy III
AOC
Cory Booker
Eliz. Warren
Bernie Sanders
Richard Ojeda
Ayanna Pressley
... and many others

Even former UN leader Ban Ki Moon supports a Green New Deal (which addresses job creation and other New Deal solutions with reversing the Greenhouse effect –which is going to ruin our children’s future if we don’t wake the fuck up):

There is no bloody “left” and “right” – only rational and irrational.
