Do you think it would be safe to go out wearing this hoodie?

from my email ...

Due to popular demand, progressive holiday gifts are here!

Give the gift of Elizabeth Warren this season (although we feel like it's Christmas every day she's in office). We've also brainstormed some other gifts -- progressive media, books, and more.

1) Give the gift of Elizabeth Warren. Our limited edition T-shirts, hoodies, bumper stickers, magnets, and onesies are American made and union printed. Shop here.



2) Give the gift of progressive news.

The Majority Report is a two-time winner of The Best Political Podcast Award. It's hosted by former comedian and Air America host Sam Seder. He has timely, progressive, and often humorous takes on current events. (Adam Green, our co-founder, listens to the show while jogging.)

The first month is free for PCCC members, and it's just $10 a month after that. Click here to give the gift of progressive media to yourself or others.

3) Give the gift of progressive books -- or lots of other stuff.

Powell's Books is a famous independent (and union) bookstore in Portland, Oregon. Their online store sells millions of books, eBooks, and DVDs. Click here to check out Powell's.

We encourage you to find alternatives to Amazon, which opposed letting its workers unionize and funded the right-wing ALEC organization. But if you do use Amazon, use this Amazon link. A small percentage of all sales off this link will be donated to progressives. But again, we encourage you to find more independent, socially-responsible alternatives, such as Powell's.

4) Give the gift of a clean conscience.

Are you tired of giving your money to corporations that contribute to Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Michele Bachmann? Switch your cell service to CREDO Mobile, the only progressive phone company. They have all sorts of new phones!

I believe his was said by wonderful George Mitchell at the high point of the trickle -down deception period, about twenty - thirty years ago. I never can understand why it hasn't been repeated more often.

For instance if you had just woke up and discovered that you had landed your plane at the wrong airport and this was ALL you had on....then I would say no, not a good idea to go out like that.
