David Sirota's online magazine of news & commentary
(Reader comments now accepted at Working Assets)
Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) and Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE) are both criticizing the White House thugs for having the nerve to attack Rep. Jack Murtha (D-PA) for his statements about Iraq. That's what Democrats should be encouraging - they should not be publicly bailing out on courageous leaders.
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.
