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.

Another not-quiter gets in the MLB Hall of Fame
Joe Gordon? Maybe he was a Yankees team leader in the ’40s. Maybe he was a peach of a guy. A Hall of Famer? NO, even though the baseball Veterans Committee officially says otherwise . Yes, he had power for a 2B, but, even credit him for two missed seasons of WWII and he still wouldn’t have broken 1,800 hits. And, he was just slightly above average as fielder, myths about “Flash” Gordon’s glove aside.
