Liberal Stance: Top Five

Liberal Stance

But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." --John F. Kennedy

Top Five

A quick rundown of the posts I have read during my travels around the series of tubes.

- Washington Monthly: Once again the media never lets the facts get in the way of their ‘pox on both houses’ narrative.

- Think Progress: Roger Simon of Politico takes this school girl crush on Mitt ‘Pretty’ Romney to a whole new level. This is getting ridiculous.

- Firedoglake: Conservatives are shameless. They are trying to claim convicted felon Scooter Libby is a casualty of a war.

- MyDD: Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa has defeated five Republican congressmen in Senate elections, Rep. Tom Latham might be this six.

- The Fan House: This is sickening.
