NY'ers Pete Seeger and Eliot Spitzer were both targeted by the feds
Pete for standing up for the working man and our civil rights.
Spitzer for arresting prostitutes and being a hypocrite.

Why do we need superdelegates again? Oh yeah, cause the voters are too stupid to be trusted to vote. If given the chance, the people might nominate a Kucinich, or a Colbert.

1. Pete Seeger has been targeted and spied on for decades.

As have a lot of other left-wingers, even private citizens.

2. Yes. And Pete is very proud of his reason and denounced
the FEDS for their invasion of his privacy and his civil rights.

Spitzer has made a career doing exactly what is now being done to him.
