I voted for Rebecca Cooke over Katrina Shankland and like her position against Van Orden for WI U.S. Rep. BBBbbbbuuuut, I am disturbed by her ad that Dems are too far left as some Republicans are too far right.
I respectfully disagree Becca. What positions do Dems hold as too extreme?
-- We Dems do not call for open borders.
-- Yes, we protect transexuals and if transitioned, they may participate in sports of their choice.
-- Dem administrations are more effective at helping businesses prosper, and national debt and deficits decline.
-- Better at health care distribution.
This is where I think Cooke finds fault and that is taxing those who can afford it, so is this what she means? If so that's a bad look and who then is backing you?
Republicans are absolutely extreme, even compared to a few decades ago they are miles into insanity rightward. Dems, on the other hand, have not moved!
I signed disappointed in you and get rid of that ad.
Think. Again.

Right is intolerable, so the more left you can get, the better.

(1,229 posts)"Too far left" (American-style) means either solving a problem -completely or partially- or wasting money by failing to solve a problem.
Too far right means real harm -often physical- to real people and the loss of freedom for Americans.
So while the terms sound the same, they carry vastly different consequences. It's just warmed over false equivalency.
