Someone sent me a Bill Maher clip in response to my last OP.
And it seems to be saying something that jives with the UK as well as the US.
"The centrists have moved over to the right, the centtre-right has gone over further to make room for them, and there is nobody on the left arguing for and defending a progresssive agenda that is straight up about gun control, gay marraige, universal healthcare, legalising pot , and so forth..."
Yeah, that was Bill Maher talking, and I make him right. We have the same thing happening over here in l'il ol' England, too, BTW. Well, we did till Caroline Lucas got in - she is about the only progressive person in Westminster, if you discount Tory and labour rebels prepared to defy the party whips.
So, I ask if this take on American politics seems about right to you -
