[lbo-talk] In defense of Hannity's punching bag

[Michael Pugliese]

Liberal is a very nice word. Say it a few times. Let it roll off the 
tongue. Say it loud and there's music playing. Say it soft and it's almost 
like praying. Wait a minute ... that's "Maria" from West Side Story. 
Actually, it wouldn't be such a bad idea if liberals could embrace this 
word with the same kind of glee with which Maria embraced her beauty:
"I feel liberal, oh so liberal. I feel liberal and witty and bright
And I pity those conservatives who think they're right."

   Glanced through it the other day. Mention of Guatemalan and Iranian 
coups caught my eye. Blubed by Bill Clinton.
