And from January, after Scott Brown’s victory, a reminder from top political pundit Roger Ebert about the importance of the two party system:
In February of 2009, Newsweek proclaimed:
First read this, then prove them wrong today.
In other words, hit it.

Wow, just wow. I hadn’t seen a couple of those. The AforP video is stunning, and really really sad. Those two black guys really believe that conservative/libertarian folks like me are bigots, full of hate. They’ve been sold this lie, time and time again. So, they hate us right back.
I’m not even mad at guys like that, who have fallen for the lie. I’m angry at the liars that sold it to ‘em.
oops. I mean the Virginia’s Fifth District Watchdog video, not AforP.
Who are YEW? Who are YEW? Who are YEW?

You crazy kidder you!
