Kos is a warrior plain and simple
Kos has the heart and fight of a lion. Fearless.....type of backbone most shy away from not only in politics but life in general. Definitely his own person which in my opinion seems to be very rare in American culture these days simply because people my age and younger must fit in, stand in line and follow for the sake of fitting in. Kos should be applauded.

6. Did Kos say something important recently?
Did I miss something?

Last I read he was saying the Democrats won't get anything done until maybe 2008 which I found to be quite disappointing and not exactly warrior like??
:shrug:

8. Well I think Kos was making an honest assesment
of the electoral situation. Do you have more examples than just one which you believe strips Kos of Warrior status?

21. Well, I think, and I always wanted to start a thread to get some interest
I think DU should challenge the Kossacks to a volleyball game.

9. He was telling the truth.
You know, accepting reality. Does being a warrior mean you also have to become delusional? I must have missed that.

13. I think we should be pushing for alot more than waiting for 'elections'
doesn't he know about the election fraud?

He has the ear of so many on the left, he could be pushing for immediate reform and people would listen. Instead he seems to go along to get along.

I could be wrong which is why I asked...how has he been pushing the envelope?

14. The blog was to help create a democratic
noise machine? You should read the philosophy of the blog before asking questions

17. What's not "warrior-like" about assessing the situation
and figuring out where, when and how to strike?

11. I like Kos too.
Edited on Wed Jan-18-06 11:26 AM by Beelzebud
The ONLY problem I have with him, is his refusal to cover labor issues.

He totally does not get that labor is a HUGE cornerstone of this party. During the NYC transit workers strike, he said he wouldn't cover it because it was a "regional issue". That was BS...

Without support for the labor unions and the average working citizen, the democrats are lost.

Labor is our base, and Kos could do much better by realizing this.

That is the ONLY issue, where I don't seem to be on the same page as Kos. He simply misses the fact that most citizens, and most democrats, are blue collar workers. We don't all work in office buildings, in the cities, earning 6 figures a year.

22. K&R, and I'm not even sure what you're talking about.
Did Kos say something special today, or are you just in the mood to praise him? :D

23. I was just in the mood to praise him...Nothing special today
Democratic Senators, Certain Journalists, DNC get lots of praise. I thought Bloggers should start getting praise as well.
