I am increasingly puzzled by so-called progressives. Is there a Progressive Party convention that has been held somewhere? Is there a Party organization? Where is the progressive platform written and where can I get a copy?
I am a democrat. A yellow-dog democrat (I know....an increasingly unpopular breed)...I know what the party platform is...and I agree.
Where the heck did these progressives come from....Who is their daddy?
This site is supposedly dedicated to electing democrats, more of them, and increasingly better qualified democrats, who are true to the party platform.......I thought.
Yet....the liberals of yesterday are gone and in their place are the progressives. It seems to me that no matter what the democratic party proposes, a progressive is always left of that point. So there will never be peace between democrats and progressives....theoretically. Because when a progressive agrees with a democrat...then they are automatically not a progressive any more.
Is that how this works? However it works...I know one thing. I am giving money to democrats...and to a platform I believe in.
