4. Yup, that's how he can be to the left... |

7. Absolutely and I simply can't understand it. They bought into this grandiose idea |
|
propagated by the wingnuts and Corporate Media and now they are mad. Doesn't surprise me about Ed. He is often very misinformed and wrong. Love him, though. We need his voice.
