The "professional left": a bunch of "firebaggers"

[DonCoquixote]

34. mostly agree, but

There is another faction, those that pretend to be those you mentioned, but have their own agenda. Libertarians tend to fit this, where they will go ahead and criticize on war policy, but, as Glenn Greenwald did, defend something like Citizens United. When Medea Benjamin praised Ron Paul, she forgot or ignored this this man was also one of the great foes of abortion. The thing is, when we help the libertarians, we can never forget that if they were in power, we would be in harms way as much as the GOP, because they want to simply give the rich what they want. The libertarians will use whatever we give them against us,which is why when people say "you are just doing an ad hominem" I say, "I do not need the libertarians to support what I believe, and I do not want to give them ammo to hurt us."
