Adventures in Harvard America

Efforts to rebuild the Democratic Party run short of building materials.

(Page 3 of 3)

Translation: Tax the bejesus out of the rich and give lazy people money so they don't feel bad about themselves.

Each generation has a duty to protect and improve those resources we hold in common -- our community spaces, our public institutions and our natural environment.

This last is fraught with contradictions. Perhaps the best thing we could do for our natural environment, for example, would be to stop mowing our community spaces. Give the park back to the squirrels. Or maybe our natural environment is getting in the way of the expansion of our public institutions. After all, we need land for the new wing George W. Bush and Teddy Kennedy are building onto the Department of Education.

All this and I still haven't gotten to the section on foreign policy. Pity, but then again, you probably can guess what it says. And, of course, there's always tomorrow.
