I haven't read the diary with the headline, "I'm Perfect, and Everyone I Hate is Wrong," but the headline got me thinking.
It's OK to not be perfect. It's perfectly normal -- healthy, in fact. What is life if not a constant striving for perfection? If I were perfect, that would be gone, and I'd be good as dead.
Greetings, I will start by saying that after watching this hour long interview with Thomas Frank at RT\
and how household politics reflect national politics:
The term wealth redistribution, often used by the mainstream media and critics of Democratic Socialism is an obvious mis-characterization. It implies wealth distribution in the first place. We 99 percenters know, wealth is pooled up at the top with the serious people that run things.
I've been looking around at my old diaries over at TOP, and was thinking about bringing them over here. I thought about it for a while, and realized my fundamental problem with doing so.
Yeah, I went there...

John Nichols is such an insightful analyst and he's very good reading this morning. The link and an extract are placed below. Have a great day.
Good morning, my dear friends of c99. It was a tough night for us. As a little morning after picker-upper, here's some Pete Seeger just below. He encouraged so many millions of oppressed and depressed people over his long and beautiful life.
