My Face Book Response to Maryscott O'Connor Attacking Sanders' Supporters
Submitted by Steven D on Sun, 05/22/2016 - 6:41pmSome you older TOP exiles might remember Maryscott O'Connor, a very popular diarist from the days before Markos banned her for being too sensationalist and bombastic for his tastes (I suppose those are as good euphemisms as any for his actions). I met Maryscott in person at the anti-war march in Washington, D.C, in September of 2005, and I rather liked her company. She was flamboyant as her writing style, but a delight to be around.
The Conflict Is Not A Bad Thing
Submitted by Nightprowlkitty on Sun, 05/22/2016 - 5:41pmThere have been many sighs and groans over Bernie supporters being called racist, misogynist, privileged, etc., all referring to a progressive egalitarianism that everyone, even right-wingers, professes to possess. Even the most racist person bridles as being called racist, no?
The latest contretemps I've noticed is the battle between Joan Walsh and Neera Tanden and a white male blogger named Matt Bruenig.

This included an incredibly racist and Islamophobic campaign by Zac Goldsmith and a clear victory for Sadiq Khan.

On NPR and Lousy Journalism:
Why does NPR news continue to repeat the lie that there was violence at the Nevada Democratic Convention. Does NPR allow the Clinton Campaign to write it's news stories these days?
No one is talking about Hillary's health problems......
Submitted by importer on Sun, 05/22/2016 - 3:03pmexcept the far right, and even that is getting little play. There was an article awhile back stating that the press was not allowed to view Hillary getting on or off her plane. The press had to get on their plane first. Which leads to the question - How bad are Hillary's health problems?
