The state senator and professor of constitutional law has told The Black Commentator that he is acting to have his name stricken from the “New Democrats Directory,” a list of several hundred DLC-affiliated elected officials.   <br><br>"I am not currently, nor have I ever been, a member of the DLC,” said Obama, in a statement that substantially reflects a telephone conversation with  Associate Editor Bruce Dixon, this weekend. “It does appear that, without my knowledge, the DLC…listed me in their ‘New Democrat’ directory,” Obama continued. “Because I agree that such a directory implies membership, I will be calling the DLC to have my name removed, and appreciate your having brought this fact to my attention.”</blockquote></div>\

For the life of me I cannot figure out why Ford is a Democrat and why he is allowed to speak on anyone\'s behalf.  He has been back stabbing Barack and other Democrats with his "advice" for the election.  Last time I saw him on MSNBC and he was offering his "advice" I thought, "Didn\'t he lose his election.  What in the hell does he know about winning a statewide race, anywhere."  He is a duplicitous snake who always declared his neutrality during the primary but never hesitated to slip a knife into "his good friend" Barack\'s back.</div>\

I was never more disgusted with him than when he posted that he had planned to donate the maximum 2300 bucks to Obama but, after his vote on FISA, he [Markos] decided to donate to Darcy Burns instead.  Now Burns is a blue candidate who was very recently burned out of her home so I saw nothing wrong with his choosing to make his donation to her instead.<br><br>But I, along with many other Kossacks,  took issue with him taking pains to publicly point out the specifics as to why he wasn\'t donating to Obama, particularly when this was right around the time that Obama had announced he wasn\'t participating in Public Financing. <br><br>When it comes down to it, it could very well be that Markos is just as crafty in playing both ends against the middle as corporate media pundits are, as I\'ve seen other diaries of his that haven\'t been positively for Obama.<br><br>This merely confirms my belief that there ain\'t no such thing as a \'liberal,\'  whether "caucasian" (MM is Salvadoran) or otherwise.<blockquote>Markos is no attack dog.</blockquote> You got that right, <strong>TruthSeeker</strong>.</div>\

She obviously has done a lot of good in her life with her work as a special education teacher, and her humanitarian work with disaster relief.  But, but, if people are going to complain about "fluff" pieces on the Obamas, then I call bull about that piece of "fluff" on Cindy McCain.  Not only was she stealing meds from her own organization, but the doctor who was writing fake prescriptions for her lost his license, and the McCain campaign tried to get the whistleblower charged with extortion after he filed a wrongful termination claim against Cindy.  <br><br>So yeah, maybe her Mama expressing concern did cause her to have a change of heart about her illegal drug use, but that most certainly wasn\'t the only thing to this story.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-942614" class="dsq-comment-message">BHP, obviously you\'re aware that Obama ascribes to the same political axiom:<blockquote>What is the best strategy for building majority support for a progressive agenda, and for reversing the rightward drift of this country?   <br><br>One important part of that strategy - and on this I think we agree - is for progressives within the Democratic Party to describe our core values (e.g. racial justice, civil liberties, opportunity for the many, and not just the few) in clear, unambiguous terms.   <br><br>A second part of that strategy - and again, I think we agree here - is to stake out clear positions on issues that put those values into action (e.g. the need for universal health care), and to stand up for those values when they are under assault (e.g. opposition to the Patriot Act).   <br><br>But the third part of this part of the equation – and on this we may disagree – must be to gain converts to our positions.  My job, as a candidate for the U.S. Senate, isn’t to scold people for their lack of ideological purity.  It’s to persuade as many people as I can, across the ideological spectrum, that my vision of the future is compatible with their values, and can make their lives a little bit better.  Thus, while I may favor common-sense gun control laws, that doesn’t keep me from reaching out to NRA members who are worried about their lack of health insurance.  I favor affirmative action, but I’m still going after the votes of white union members who oppose affirmative action, because I think I can convince them that it’s Bush’s economic agenda, and not affirmative action, that is eroding their job security and stagnating their wages.  And while I may object to the misogyny and materialism of much of rap culture, I’m still going to spend the time reaching out to a hip-hop generation in search of a future.   <br><br><strong>In other words, I believe that politics in any democracy is a game of addition, not subtraction. And I believe deeply enough in the decency of the American people to think that progressives can build a winning majority in this country, so long as we’re not afraid to speak the truth, and so long as we don’t write off big chunks of the electorate just because they don’t agree with us on every issue.</strong></blockquote></div>\
