Russ Feingold on today's DN!
Submitted by TriangleBill on Thu, 02/23/2012 - 2:06pmSen. Russ Feingold (D-WS) appears on today's DemocracyNow! for a fairly wide-ranging in-studio conversation with Amy Goodman. Feingold, having sat on the Senate judiciary committee during the dark days of the Bush/Cheney regime, has an interesting vantage point wrt any discussion re regaining our lost civil liberties and the current struggle to reclaim our corporate-run "democracy."

Inconvienent TRUTH for Dems from Sam Seder (a MUST listen...)
Submitted by TriangleBill on Wed, 01/12/2011 - 4:09amThe choice of Bill Daley is no way for Pres. Obama to repair the damage he's done to the progressive base of the Democratic party in his first two years. I could not agree more - 200% - with Sam Seder and his take on the appointment of Daley as the president's Chief of Staff. Check out this clip- about 10 minutes- he absolutely lays out our current harsh reality.
