I'm going on 52. You think this is the first left-wing march I've ever seen? Sure, most of them don't involve nudity, but the immature self-indulgence is pretty damn obvious, even in the ones wearing suits and ties who speak in front of the audience.

I've noticed that the response to a lot of my posts about leftism fall along the lines of "that's not us! Michael Moore isn't us! The Berkeley marchers aren't us! Kucinich isn't us! Howard Dean isn't us! MoveOn.org isn't us!"

Maybe you're right. I do know that a lot of Democratic voters don't fall into these categories. But what face is the Democratic Party presenting to them?
