The heart of a progressive president

From Glenn Greenwald

Though a bit oversimpified — the Bush administration killed plenty of people, while the Obama administration makes use of kidnapping and torture chambers albeit by proxy; also, as this tweeter noted: it’s “unfair to say the Obama administration kills those it doesn’t like, since they claim power to kill people without even knowing who they are” – this concise comparison just about about sums it up. But it’s important to note that President Obama has progressivism in his heart and that makes all the difference in the world.

  1. Progressivism has so many definitions, it’s not all that useful anymore to describe a political or social reform strategy. Most so-called progressives do not question state intervention as the preferred means to achieve stated goals. Authoritarian progressives offer little to little-d-democrats looking for individual freedom, a little justice, free speech, a living wage and fair elections.

  2. Hey! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog.
    Is it tough to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure
    things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions?

    Thank you
