[from Sam Smith's Progressive Review] GETTING COPS TO BEHAVE I One of the astonishing things about the recent demonstrations in Washington is how much better the Metropolitan Police Department behaved compared to its unconstitutional, abusive, illegal, and counterproductive handling of the last large protests in April 2000.

I love how a misreading of an article - by a retired professional close-reader - is followed by a "I know nothing about," and is finished off with a vigorous series of judgments and pronunciamenti.

I suppose you could call the DLC soft right, but they've taken over what's conventionally regarded as the lefter party.
