REAL CHANGE, Vote nondemocrat and nonrepublican for upcoming elections. If you are republican, vote libertarian or contstitutionalist. If you are a democrat, Vote Green Party or Socialist. This is how we defeat the real enemy... Lobbyists.

thank you for being fair and balanced and going after the left when they need to get their asses chewed out. it isnt about left or right anymore, its about pro-status quo and anti-status quo

Rahm Emmanuel is a ruthless little shit. He was known for his inhumane statements during the Kuwait Scam aka Gulf War.

You're all a bunch of fascist apologists.

@psychocycledad well f'ing said!

What the hell is the "get the dipshits behind the camera to participate" formula about? Letterman did it with Biff the Stage Hand/Manager. Jerry Springer did it with Steve the Bounder. The Turks have Bob Marley's bastard step child sitting at the board, spouting out the slightly more stupid support of the stupid point d'jour. How about they put a flatulent old man back there and insert whatever subtitles they like in rhythm with the farts?

@stevenbrown30240:

I think that progressives ARE the fair ones. Your question, should've been "you expect fairness from ELITISTS?"

You're right that it's not about right vs. left.

But you're arguing on the side of the oppressor, yet you ask if we expect "fairness from progressives". You want to side with those who keep people down?

I want to ask you: who were your heroes when you were a child? All the bad guys in movies?

If I'm naive, then at least it's naivete attempting to do good.

To: Know-It-All Wizard of OZ. Consider me one of the miffed, naive, youthful. If Obama is "implement of American destruction" then what would an elected McCain/Palin have been? Your claim of intolerance= a conservative tactic: Projection. Liberal&Tolerant= synonyms. Little difference between Left vs. Right & Elite vs. "Peasants". The original appeal of Obama was he came from the bottom to rise to the top. He just wasn't strong enough to maintain his core. Now a shell like any other politician!

[rajasmasala]

and the republicans have generally been insane. It would have been nice for a bigger independent vote count. There was one. Hopefully it can be even bigger next time round.

[rajasmasala]

Well, Obama was certainly not openly spouting disastrous policy like McCain.

Lol! You expect fairness from progressives?!!! You "Young turks" are hilarious. Naive, lacking in a sense of American values and real American history, twisted up in your need to be intolerant of conservatives . . . this has never been left-right, it's elite vs the peasants,sillies. You are just the pawns who were on the wrong side of history in getting the implement of American destruction elected President. I love to see the miffed, naive, youthful Obama supporters starting to get a clue. Ha!!
