The Evil of Two Lessers?

[Max Sawicky]

But, damn, I still think one of the few positive achievements of the 
Clinton years was handing a decisive defeat to the moral police. And 
now we have fucking Jerry Falwell praising Lieberman as an "excellent 
choice." So we've got a born-again Christian and an Orthodox Jew on 
the Dem ticket, and the proclaimer of Jesus Day in Texas leading the 
Republican - and hair-shirt Ralph and the Catholic crypto-fascist 
Buchanan as our leading alternatives. Is this some collective 
expiation for the wretched excess of the 90s boom?   Doug

Why not take it, at least in part, as a reflex against
untrammeled markets and their social implications?  When
Marx says criticize religion, doesn't he mean separate
the wheat from the chaff?
