I know how hard fought this reflective kind of thinking and analysis is, the way it demands both intellectual and emotional discipline, and I LOVE you for it. At least Ezra is getting it. That's about it, and then of course Booman who had a kind of hilarious influx of hair on fire people commenting yesterday, and then there's Steve Benen's solid but not very daring analysis. Most places have a meal ticket attached to their writing, and that means massaging the poutrage of their cliental, or at least tip-toeing around it. Not you, not Booman.<br /><br />I can see the way Obama is systematically shepherding this country out of the madness of Nixon's Southern Strategy, and building a much stronger future for us all. Amazing guy, and OF COURSE people don't realize it now. That's par for the course for people ahead of their time.Mikerayinberkeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06679746314470443830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163441833245663827.post-25544896813941753262013-04-11T11:38:34.050-05:002013-04-11T11:38:34.050-05:00I like the idea of the minimum wage being tied to ...I like the idea of the minimum wage being tied to the rate of inflation.
