You got a mouth, now where is your money?

I found this post interesting. Interesting in that I apparently share a view with many of the "liberal bloggers" that the DNC isn't particularly deserving of our support, right now. Spineless; disorganized; weak. There needs to be someone willing and able to step up and "play the hardball game that conservatives have foisted upon us". (David Neiwert, Orcinus) Baseball metaphors abound: the Repugs are zinging pitches right and left; everyone seems afraid of getting hit. It's time to "take one for the team". Hmm?

I wouldn't necessarily have labeled myself as liberal, but I suppose I am. If "conservative" these days means supporting the administration, then I must be the exact opposite.

I would give my $100 to the local Mid-Ohio FoodBank, and I do. At least there I know we're helping to keep some of our poorest neighbors fed, and that's worth something.

"Think globally, but act locally." Pithy, trite, but applicable.
