masquerading as a "Democratic Socialist"?
Is the Green New Deal a watermelon - Green on the outside & Red on the inside?
In response to: When does the risk of crypto-communism become disqualifying for a presidential candidate?
It's unlikely in the extreme that 'Crats will brutally raise and address such questions during their upcoming Primary Race, but they should. They MUST!
Why?
If they fail to raise & address such questions in their Primaries and run Bern For Prez - they can be damned Certain the questions will be raised FOR 'em in the General Election
Some of The Don's early campaign ads suggest 'Publicans anticipate running against The Bern & are framing the Prez campaign as a Capitalism vs Socialism/Communism clash of Worldviews.
So sez 'CRAT Strategist, Ragin' Cajun James Carville ...

Saying the party needs to “wake up and make sure that we talk about things that are relevant to people,” the former Clinton adviser grumbled that he is “not very impressed” with the Democratic field and suggested DNC chair Tom Perez should be canned.
"... We’re like talking about people voting from jail cells. We’re talking about not having a border. I mean, come on, people.”
I just heard this announced & haven't heard enough to offer informed commentary.
I wish them well
In response to: End Impeachment's Government Shutdown

BY MARK PENN, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR
We are facing an impeachment shutdown - the road-blocking of all our government's institutions for an impeachment that is going nowhere. It will inflame passions, divide our country further and accomplish nothing of any significance.
The cast is now complete with shady characters, wronged bureaucrats and impeachment prosecutors preening for their close-ups on national TV.
As in 1998 and 1999, there is going to be a reckoning when this is all over. I helped to defend President Clinton when the country wasted time then on another impeachment that went nowhere. The president certainly was not innocent of all of the accusations, and he lost his law license and paid significant fines for his actions, but impeachment was rejected and his hold on the presidency affirmed. His ratings soared.
Like them or not, presidents uniquely represent the elected will of the people. As such, their removal is not just about the removal of a person but the overturning of that elected will. For that reason, there are few offenses that will be so grievous as to cause the party in power to give up their party's leader and convict a president; most charges, even if true, won't reach that high bar for removal. Clearly, the accusations in 1998 and 1999 did not meet that threshold, and neither do the charges today.

I heard this reported on radio news (Coast to Coast AM
plug) a couple days ago.
I'm LUVVIN' on the hot peppers
...
Four times a WEEK??
Hell! I prob'ly eat four servings of the stuff per MEAL - starting with breakfast.
Crystal® Louisiana Hot Sauce (
shameless plug) is the New Ketchup & great as salad dressing.
Da Bomb - Beyond Insanity® (
ditto) Habañero Sauce is a special treat
Anyway -
It was good hearing that SOMETHING out there that folks enjoy ain't gonna kill 'em & might do 'em good
I calculated it out ...
Averaging out four servings/week & at the rate I eat 'em - I'm gonna live another 200 years.
Minimum!!
