For those who want to thank Medea of Code Pink for her speaking out

123. The far Lefts strategy for change is going out and shouting or chaining themselves to

fences, or laying in front of trucks. Of course, getting arrested is their badge of honor. And their tactics accomplish literally, fucking nothing. FDR wasn't a liberal, he was a pragmatist who saw the benefit of new policy. LBJ was a conservative democrat who saw the benefit of changing how America dealt with the poor and striving.

I don't want the far Left to STFU because their viewpoints are important and are WHERE we should be. What I do want the far Left to do is get a fucking clue and recognize that change doesn't happen overnight and that there will be setbacks because we are fighting against extreme reactionaries on the right. Patience, pragmatism and determination always win in the end.

Medea is no hero. She is just one more person that has a ossified viewpoint and is largely unwilling to listen. She is little different from a numbskull teabagger walking a street with signs that are replete with many mis-spelled words.
