But remember:  this is all about compassion and “acts of love,” and has nothing to do with politics, or creating a permanent ruling class by turning demographically to an electoral welfare state.  And how dare you suggest such a thing, racist xenophobes who hate!

…I’ve been Tweeting out (largely ignored) progressive 4th of July Party games.  Could be I’m the only one amused. But amused I am! #progJuly4partygames is the Twitter hashtag.  Or post them here.
