directly from their mouths even when confronted with the fact that it is bullshit is maddening.

"The country is more conservative. We'll be giving foreign banks an advantage if we don't allow them to be so large they can cheat with impunity." etc. This shit is so . . . it's like they have to sell this crap to themselves. It's like you would have to figure out a way to make it palatable to your own mind. There's just something wrong with every position she takes lately. There is always a nagging needling that seems desperate to nudge us to the right.

Like nobody home

Fear and Love. As long as we're on this mortal plane, we live in both. But we can choose the higher thing, the harder thing, the frontal-lobe thing: We can risk loving people different from us, we can take a chance on making the world better, we can bring about a system change when it's really and finally needed.

What I hear from Clinton's supporters, though, is fear. Disguised as measured and rational caution, it's just abject terror of doing what, as Democrats, should come naturally: reject the corporate powers and their decades-long theft of our country and join with the people.
