And he certainly seems to be the darling of the right. He may have been progressive at some point, but he isn't now.

I had a friend who was a progressive activist in the 90s. Then he discovered Ron Paul. Now he's a racist shitbag who idolizes the John Birch Society.

I don't call him progressive anymore.
