 The Black Commentator - The Job the White Left Won’t Accept - Issue 114
Everywhere you turn these days, members of the white left may be found curled into the fetal position, weeping, wailing and gnashing their teeth about the Bush victory.
Because the white left has not been present to counter the vile lies of the right wing, white evangelicals are left to accept the right wing’s theology and agenda as gospel.
The white left’s reluctance to undertake this task is not solely because of stubbornness.

 Unite the Right - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The goal of uniting the right was accomplished in December 2003 with the formation of the Conservative Party of Canada.
While the United Alternative movement was focused on creating a broader coalition for conservative voters, it had to compete with social conservatives who wanted the Reform Party to shift further to the right, as opposed to the moderate centre and Red Toryism.
In the Canadian federal election, 2006, after a decade of work, the Conservatives seemed to attain their goal of being an electable "United Alternative" when they were given a minority government by the electorate.

 The Emerging New Euroleft, Left, Europe, Hilary Wainwright   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
In last year’s Spanish elections the United Left lost all its seats in the Madrid Parliament, partly because it was insufficiently nimble in the face of the move left by José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero’s victorious Socialist Party, lifted into office on a wave of antiwar opinion.
The Swedish Left Party is in disarray, while in Greece the relatively innovative Synaspismos is numerically overshadowed by the dogmatic and sectarian Greek Communist Party.
As a result, left parties that have strong links with these movements are able to punch way beyond their electoral strength, making gains for political ideas that the movements and parties share.

 Online NewsHour: Reviewing The Alternative Minimum Tax -- April 14, 2006
Created as a patch to the tax law in 1967, the Alternative Minimum tax law's growing complexity and effect on Americans has caused policy makers and tax experts to reevaluate.
The Alternative Minimum Tax, or AMT for short, is a tax code that runs parallel to regular income tax.
And they chose a third path, which was to patch the income tax, add on this alternative tax so that they didn't get embarrassed when people took too much advantage of the special preferences that Congress had created.

 Is Nader a left alternative?
His campaign this year--launched late last month--is unlikely to have the momentum of 2000, because most of the broad left is united behind supporting whichever Democrat gets the party’s presidential nomination.
In a speech announcing his campaign at the National Press Club, Nader said that he planned to appeal to "conservatives and independents who are very upset with Bush administration policies." "I urge the liberal establishment to relax and rejoice," Nader said.
Such appeals to the right are bound to frustrate those on the left who might look to a Nader candidacy.

 Paul Foot: Left Alternative - Beyond the Crossroads (2003)
Wherever it is possible to raise socialist alternatives – public ownership and comprehensive education – people respond enthusiastically.
When a collection of socialist organisations formed the Socialist Alliance in 1999, the main object was to present a united front of organisations whose members were no longer prepared to devote their time and energy to attacking one another.
The alliance’s outstanding success in England and Wales – Michael Lavalette’s election in Preston – was achieved by a genuine attempt to seek out and represent large numbers of people in Preston who were against the war and against racism.

 The Arabist » Left
True, he occasionally remarks that the United States has declared war on god, but such statements would carry little conviction if not seconded by claims that the United States is tyrannising and exploiting Muslim people… Bin Laden almost never justifies terrorism against the West as a means for subordinating Western unbelievers to the true faith.
Most of those who knew him before 1996 stress not Atta’s religious piety…but his implacable fury at the plight of the poor and the indifference of the rich… He was bitterly angry at the visible juxtaposition, in Cairo, of extravagant and frivolous luxury with mass squalor and hopelessness.
There is still a debate,however, within the left over the stand towards the Muslim Brothers’ candidates, taken into consideration the group’s leadership does not oppose the privatization scheme, but rather suggests slight reforms to it, embracing free market economics.

Now if we could get all the radicals on the left and the right the heck out of politics we could have a great government, we need both rightwing and leftwing parties otherwise we just keep flying in circles and don’t get anywhere as a nation.
Sure, the internet, Fox News, and political magazines all provide the public with alternative sources of information, but sadly, most of the country is not engaged enough in politics that they would seek other sources of information.
Take note: A conservative is one who believes in conserving, protecting and defending the values of the America of our Founding Fathers, the very same ones who ran so many of the Tories of their times our of town on a rail.

 ON THE LEFT: Progressive Caucus offers alternative vision for U.S.
At a small gathering Tuesday hosted by the Nation magazine, the Congressional Progressive Caucus -- which represents 62 of the body's most liberal members -- announced their "Alternative State of the Union," an agenda they would pursue if they could wrest control of Washington from Republicans.
Among their top priorities: a speedy withdrawal of all U.S. troops from Iraq; universal health care coverage; public financing of political campaigns; earned amnesty for illegal immigrants; debt relief for countries struggling with poverty or disease; a shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
But liberal leaders said the left's ambitious agenda could be revived, depending on the outcome of this fall's congressional elections.
