Leaving the Party, continued 2002

Thanks, Mike, for the link to Steve Perry's column "Spank the Donkey or Why We Should All Give Up on the Democrats: A Polemical Essay". It's got me thinking and many of the thoughts are uncomfortable ones about party lines I've swallowed. I truly wish I had received more education in rigorous critical thinking or was more naturally inclined to it; perhaps it's hard for it to co-exist with an "assume the best about people" nature.

Blog (noun) A weblog or similar brief journal usually containing links and commentary thereon. Term coined by Peter Merholz.
Visit Typepad or Blogger to start your own. (I began with hand coding, then switched to Blogger when it first became available, then to Movable Type when I wanted more control over my weblog and to have it hosted at a place of my choosing (Hurricane Electric). Now I use Typepad, built by the same folks who made Movable Type and I love it).
