A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.

Obama and McCain commercials BOTH unconnected to Street needs
McCain’s bashing of Obama’s nonexistent Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac ties AND Obama’s middle-class tax cut shibboleth commercial both have nothing to do with Wall Street’s worries and possible fixes, as Walter Shapiro notes. Unfortunately, as he also discusses, Americans may have their eyes glaze over at too much discussion of financial issues, despite middle-class investments in the Street through 401(k) and IRA accounts and more.
