Matt Stoller Gets Really Silly

I don’t agree with his vote, but apparently now Dennis Kucinich is not progressive enough and must be challenged in a primary. Because he voted against the bill because it was not liberal enough. Dennis Kucinich.

Yes, that Dennis Kucinich. If Dennis Kucinich ain’t pure enough for these liberal purity purges, these folks are going to end up with a really, really, really small Democratic party.

I don’t care about his ideology, and I don’t necessarily think he should be removed from office. I’m just glad he’s being challenged so that voters get the chance on whether they want him in the House to keep launching his vanity Presidential campaigns.

Just what do you have against democratic processes like primaries, anyway? It’s not like ideological warfare is the only reason that primaries are useful vehicles.

Yes, because automagically being against wasteful primaries means I’m against primaries. That’s clearly why I’m so in favor of re-electing Al Wynn. Oh, but I’m not. What does a primary do against Kucinich but waste time and resources?
