David Sirota's online magazine of news & commentary
(Reader comments now accepted at Working Assets)
A few weeks ago, the D.C. Democratic Establishment did its best to downplay the Iraq War as a political issue. Apparently, the Democrats who loudly supported the war are afraid to even address it now. Luckily, more and more top-tier 2006 Democratic U.S. Senate candidates are ignoring that strategy, and frontally addressing the Iraq War.
I am the co-chairperson of the Progressive Legislative Action Network (PLAN) - a position I took after finishing a stint as a fellow at the Center for American Progress. I am also a Senior Editor at the In These Times magazine, and a writer for Working Assets, and a twice-a-week guest on the Al Franken Show. I have just completed a book for Random House's Crown Publishers entitled "Hostile Takeover" - it will be released Spring 2006. I also write a bi-weekly section for the Nation Magazine called Permanent Minority vs. Towards the Majority about Democrats failures and successes. For more on what I do, see this Washington Post story about my blog, this Molly Ivins column about my work, or this Newsweek profile about me.
