[news] U.S. Progressives Support Kerry: Can the Left Sink any Lower?

[Resist!ca]

"Throughout this election cycle progressives resolutely determined to affirm their values and principles with their vote have been called out and attacked by left luminaries: we don't care for poor, working people, we fail to understand the dangers of Bush, we've fallen prey to infantile hero-worship. Our intellects have been impugned, and we are accused of being too rigid, absolutist, purist....The left elite continues to earnestly plead/intellectually bully for the sacrifice of just some, wee, little, tiny, bit of our integrity. And for what purpose? A Kerry presidency?.... And I always thought the left stood for something."
