Some Excellent PROGRESSIVE(!) Sites

Thought I would take a minute and share a few links to some good - PROGRESSIVE - sites. No limousine liberals in this bunch. These are all great sources of information from PROGRESSIVE thinkers in the tradition of Fightin' Bob La Follette...generally considered the founder of modern-day PROGRESSIVISM. Here we go!

A PROGRESSIVE Running For President of the United States
http://www.kucinich.us/

All of these come from a traditionally PROGRESSIVE (not liberal) point-of-view. No, it's not a matter of "definition." It really does mean something to be a PROGRESSIVE. When asked by a person in a Q&A session what one issue separates PROGRESSIVES from liberals, Jim Hightower answered without hesitation: NAFTA. Most would think that is a good answer. Why? NAFTA flies in the face of the BEDROCK of PROGRESSIVE thought: Organized Labor and populist economics.

ENJOY!

Thanks!

Some of these I had but not nearly all. Thanks

www.pacifica.org

stations and affiliates that broadcast Democracynow and many

other progressive shows

After a rough time, Pacifica needs our support again. Still the best news on the radio! Here is KPFA's (the Pacifica flagship) web site, which has a lot more content (current and archived) than the main Pacifica site does.

I think they are trying to let the individual stations handle the programming content on their own sites. I'm glad you mentioned this.

So many good websites. So little time.

I have had some bookmarked for a while, but there are quite a few I was not aware of. Thanks for posting this.

Here's one to download your own free bumper stickers:

bookmarked.

Good list. Thanks.

(DU Centrists should check these out too, to get an idea of what the "left" is trying to say to you.)

Thanks JB, my computer got zapped by lightning and my new one needs to update on some of my favorite old haunts.

I like Amy Goodman's pieces on the media in "Z"....She does a good job and definitely tells it like it is.
