Who the fuck is this guy writing about? Since when is that the 'left'? This reminds me of the idiots who write in alt.politics.socialism and think that Bill Clinton is socialism. I should read that out loud in a coalition meeting and get a big laugh.
If the idea is that people think that that's what the left is, whose fault is that?

Yeah, Doug, I saw "Falling Down" too, but you know what? We've got cubicles in my office, mostly occupied by women I might add, and even the men are hipper than this, and this is not some particularly trendy hangout I assure you. And what is this 'spare tire' business? A little 'fat-baiting' here?
