What is the professional left?

[dkf]

Is this the media or college educated democrats or left organizations or left wannabes?

Or is it anyone who criticizes Obama?

[Historic NY]

1. the more liberal liberals.

[Whisp]

2. one who makes some kind of living off their 'opinions'

that's what I think he was referring to in using that word.

for example, Cenk for TYT. I like watching him once in a while and agree with his opinions for the most part. But I know he is getting paid for these tyrades he occasionally does. I don't know what he truly feels, you think you do but you don't really know. If things are blah for a while and the ratings are down a bit, why not just try out a bit of popular theatre to pump them up.

I don't know if he is genuine when he does criticize the O administration (which i have nothing against, its the cheap fucking comic book style criticism, the one liners like snot nosed school kids nyah nyah nyahing, thats what I don't consider criticism, I consider it being a fucking brat)

3. James Carville would be a professional left.

Gibbs would have had this fucker in mind.
feh.

5. we need to really work on defining what makes someone

part of the left.

i didnt know ole james still fit into that catagory...

but then again i forget, for some people just being a democrat is instantly liberal.

a mistake both people on DU and people on the right make.

4. The true "left"

They are the arbiters of who is really a liberal.

[JI7]

6. people who say Obama = Bush

[Political Tiger]

7. Jane Hamsher & Glenn Greenwald come to mind.

Two phonies who are full of themselves.

10. That's inconsistent with what the deputy WH press secretary said

Bill Burton said the following:

“I think he was just talking about folks who mostly live in this town and talk on cable TV.”

Greenwald lives in Brazil.

I think Gibbs' defenders should make up their minds as to who his target was.

[Political Tiger]

11. "Gibbs' defenders?" Please! lol

And I don't give a shit where Greenwald lives although that might help explain why he is so out of touch with reality.

8. I know what it's not.......Democratic Underground

Even though a lot of people here think we are.

:popcorn:

[CTLawGuy]

9. left-wing pundits and TV/Radio personalities
