I'm grateful in a backhanded way to the GOP for stonewalling his appellate court confirmation process long enough that Preznit Kumbaya withdrew it.
It turns out he's an imperial presidency warmonger.
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.

One way for Obama to win back the left?
He could do this without alienating moderates, either - call for an international conference to discuss details of a Fifth Geneva Convention, specifically, one on how to deal with terrorists.
That said, while it sounds great, Obama,like Bush, is too addicted to the imperial presidency to actually do this. At the same time, as a Democrat, he's afraid of "soft on terror" criticism.
