Wavering on Obama
I've been supporting Obama since the campaign began, but of late I'm getting nervous. What matters most is winning an election and stopping four more years of Bush policies in Iraq and securing health care, among many other issues.Perhaps the...more »

Why Don't Good Blogs Get Recommended?
I'm new to this blog. Reading the so-called "recommended blogs" and the "recent blogs" I'm curious what many good blogs don't appear as recommended while quite a few really silly ones do. Why?...more »

Let me sat that this is the first piece that has interested me on TPM in a long time.
I want to make a couple of points:
(1) I don't claim any expertise and what I say has been learned from recent college courses. My first point is that things are changing. Many profs are teaching with new attitudes and breaking the chains of male and euro-centric domination.
(2) Feminist scholars have made a convincing case that until recent times all history has been written by men. This fact makes it vital for women to consider alternative books and ideas.
(3) Many courses that include the Israeli/Palestinian question have been slanted to the Israeli side. The suffering and the legitimacy of the Palestinian cause has been minimized. I say this as Jew and with relatives in Israel although they are "peacenicks."
I thank the poster for this piece.

I was told that there was a comment about the former thread. By the time I got to TPM it was gone. I thought I would set the record and straight.

Think through the puppet joke. You were the puppet as I read the old thread.

One of the most difficult issues for someone who might support Hillary is that she is the proverbial enabler. Some supporters have tried to make this part of their loyalty to her, especially older women. Younger women see weakness in this and as something they would never put up with. He certainly doesn't help her.

It's the personal attacks that offend me. Thanks to the many people who wrote thoughtful posts. I learned a lot from both sides.

I'm tired of the politics here. People can change their minds and try and figure out stuff without all this. You guys want me out. I'm gone.

What is wrong with people like you? Do you not have a life without insults?

Also, because Hillary couldn't get it done last time, I wonder if she would be more pressured to get it done now and devote every bit of her energy to make it happen. Obama will be new. There will be pressure, but not the same kind of heat. I'm NOT making a case for Hillary. I just don't know. Originally I was for Edwards though I thought his stance was so extreme (although right) that it had no chance.
