I saw this on Booman Tribune, but couldn’t figure out how to leave a comment there. A very profound and moving piece – crystallizes a lot of what I’ve been thinking over the past months, but haven’t heard anyone talking about it. And indeed, you say it much more clearly than I was thinking about it. Teabaggers may act like crazy people – but guess what – they’re OUR people. And we have to figure out ways to incorporate them into our “preferred reality” as progressives, not just shove them into a corner and hope they go away. We must fight when necessary, but we must listen too.

Anyway thanks – if this is average commentary for you, I will definitely check in here regularly.
