Wow, I just looked and yes, indeed, the "centrists" are agreeing THERE IS NO LEFT in the US anymore. This is hilarious. ..there is absolutely no serious lefty stuff in the US right now. None. Zip. Just four guys/gals in a phone booth on the upper west side in Manhattan. Well, four more in another phone booth in Berkeley. And four more in yet another phone booth in Cambridge. And yet four more in another phone booth in Madison. Well, you get the point. No movement. Zip. Nada. Message 26025610 Not happening on the left right now. siliconinvestor.com They simply have no serious public presence in politics right now. I don't see any in the senate. ..... Nor do I wish to argue there are no serious, non wacko lefties in the country. I know a few; you probably know a few; Wharfie most likely knows a few; Sam types as if he does; Win seems to. But isolated individuals are not a movement, not even a collectivity. So the serious further left is not around in American politics best I can tell. siliconinvestor.com How far left do you have to be find no one (except four guys here or there) on your left? Nah, no left in this country - oh sure, we have guys IN GOVERNMENT who call themselves communist, who call Mao one of their favorite philosphers, who think Hugo Chavez knows how to run a country's media, who want to "queer" elementary schools (promote homosexuality in elementary schools - whats wrong with that?), who had to resign from the SOCIALIST INTERNATIONAL to take her current job, ..... and so on. But those aren't lefties, nah. John M and Wharfie are parodying that thread better than any of us can do.
