The conservatives are on the run: Keep pushing

The conservative mindset of racism, police brutality, drug wars on the people, bombing other countries for peace and democracy, are failing mindsets across the political landscape.

We are winning. Sometimes it may not look like we are, but we are winning.

Obama's election, the failing reaction of the tea party to that election, and the further burying of the bush doctrine, are evidence of our advance to a more perfect union.

Much of the path lies before us, but we have come a long way, good people. Keep pushing. Keep making your voices heard. Stand up for your rights.

That's part of how they continue to win.

They are losing on the gay-hate front, however.

environment with fracking and the XL Pipeline, that supports a strong, unregulated NSA/CIA Security State, and that supports the ever widening inequality via Wall Street corruption, lives on in both Parties.

While our attention is on police brutality, the PTB are picking our pockets.
