our elected representatives are now proudly behaving like petty dormitory enemies

The right always comes out looking better in these stupid skirmishes because their only goal is "own the libs" whereas the dem needs to actually get **something** done because if not their own voting base can't even go vote or may get killed by bigots.

Neera Tanden's past as a union buster is no problem with Keith Ellison, who claims to be a supporter of unions.

This is perfect neoliberal, 3rd way triangulation in action

I said "He should get his nominee unless that nominee is not qualified." was wrong when former TN governor and senate nominee Phil Bredesen said that about Donald Trump's nomination of Brett Kavanaugh for Supreme Court Justice, and it's wrong here, too. That quote is highly indicative that this is not limited to just one nominee, but the start of an ongoing trend.

The hubub about Tanden is that this is the Aristocracy of the dems trying to do "winning" and owning the cons (and the left). They want their wins to be meaningless yet hard fought against their enemies.

"Leftwing" politicians within the Democrats making it clear that they have the exact same ideology as any of their peers and trying to work to get them elected is a waste of time.

I believe this which is why the people that claim to represent the left that aren't even in the aristocracy going to bat for this burning any credibility they have for nothing are accomplishing nothing for themselves.

Hillary Clinton isn't going to hate Ellison any less regardless of how much he supports the enemies of his supporters.

The country I spent the most time in outside of America is South Korea and they would probably have a different take than you.



It seems correct to me to say that Assad was worse than Hussein and that Bush hosed up the Iraq invasion. Syria is currently facing foreign intervention from Turkey and Russia among other places. I'm not saying that I agree with that take, but I do understand how somebody with a personal investment in the region might feel that way. Speaking from first-hand experience, when you meet people from a region that's faced present-day state-level violence it's hard to advocate inaction.

kind of odd to me how so much of the national discourse around socialists involves policing what coats they are allowed to wear IMO

Richard Sharp, the chairman of the BBC and a former Goldman Sachs banker, bought two for his sons, now 28 and 26, and invested in the company after he tried on his first coat. “My son who is in New York City wore it all winter, even though he is very antimaterialistic, anticapitalist,” he said. “It is discreet enough.”

If you wear a $1k+ coat, great. Hope the payment plan wasn't any worse than the one on your iphone.

If its key feature is "helps you blend in with the unsuspecting poors" I'm judging.
