Over at Newsweek, Jon Meacham has a very interesting thesis — the Obama Administration’s dust-up with Fox News is a way of appearing liberal without actually doing anything liberal.
And, if this is part of the strategy, it surprises me not one whit. I would not even be surprised if I found out Team Obama and Fox were coordinating this for the alleged benefit of both.
But, Meacham goes beyond that, to say we are past both FDR and Ronald Reagan in political alignments today.
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.
