[Via Daily Kos] From versus the netroots — It really made my day seeing über-political whore Al From arguing the DLC is protecting the little people from the millions of "elitist" bloggers and MoveOn members.
Here's the deal: I challenge Mr. DC-insider From to make public his expense account. I'll do the same. We'll tally all the times he has stayed at Four Seasons and Ritz Carlton hotels. We'll compare that to my stays at HoJos, Motel 6s, and — when splurging — Holiday Inns. Then we'll compare his dining choices — five star restaurants I'm sure versus corner taquerias. Finally, we can compare the cost of his average suit and shoes to mine.
Or, we can simply rule, by summary judgment, that the asshole who demands that the party purge millions of its most avid supporters is the "elitist" one.
Message to the DLC — your organization is headed into a fight it cannot win unless you get rid of those fools in its leadership.
