Where Have All The Liberals Gone?

By Patrick Lawrence, Consortium News. I simply cannot figure American liberals and “progressives”—’pwogwessives,’” as the late Alexander Cockburn used to call them. They do nothing when faced with calamitous events and call it hard work. Then, when the political process (such as it is) takes a radical turn for the worse and there is serious work to do, they announce that they are exhausted and must “take a break” from it all. And then they go off to Mexico City or Barbados or the Cotswolds. Can’t figure it. When the going gets tough, liberals get… tickets to Santorini or Sicily. -more-
