Alinsky was a great man in my book. He was a community organizer defending the poor i.e. the peasants and serfs against the feudal lords.

The country seems to have grown up and most will not be fooled any more. The right wing is in decline and we are in a new FDR 20 years cycle. Just in time for our kids the country and the worlds salvation.

"I am not sure I'd ever heard of Alinsky before I met some of the nuttier conservatives on SI"

I actually bought a used copy of "Revile for Radicals", since they kept telling me it was my bible, I wanted to know what it was about. I haven't gotten around to reading it yet.
