As I remember he got a lot of his support from German industrialists.

James Traynor commented on the diary post Your RW relative, “They never had to gas Tea Partiers!” by spocko.
You do not use the stick against your opposite number, but against the 1%. But before you use you show it to them by example. And the Rule of Law has become a joke, as Glenn Greenwald has so ably pointed out. I hope, in the end you are right, but, given the history of [...]

James Traynor commented on the diary post Your RW relative, “They never had to gas Tea Partiers!” by spocko.
Liberals can only win if the society they live in is democratic, at least in a representative sense, and if civility is largely respected. It can be argued that ours is basically neither. The right knows this and acts accordingly; it is why they have been so successful over the past 30 years. And it [...]

OWS is almost certainly doomed, unless it does think big, but it won’t. Perhaps it’s a good thing. The battle must be joined and, make no mistake, the Bloombergs of the world know this, as do the police – they are chomping at the bit. I hope that non-violence triumphs; it did in the Civil Rights movement. But the blacks sought no more than equal seating in the bus. This is much bigger – we want control of the bus. And that scares the hell out of the Bloombergs, and the Mellons and the rest of them.

James Traynor commented on the diary post The Strategery of David Plouffe by jest.
I would like to believe that you’re right. I personally am going to write in Bernie Sanders, but I think that the average Democrat is most likely going to pull the Democratic lever. Or not vote. The Republicans will be out in force and I suspect the result will be a really close election. At [...]

Our immigration and temporary worker system needs a complete and fair overhaul before instituting the draconian system of enforcing current insanities by ICE.

Don’t stay home. Vote third party or write in and send an unequivocal message to the Democrats. I’m writing in Bernie Sanders.

Short grass prairie (long time ago). Good for bison. Bad for corn.

Is this what they used to call the ‘great game’? Upper middle class children playing in the Imperial Gardens. Le Carre and Graham Greene had it right. A pox on you all.
