Right-wing Republicans may be strutting around calling the 2010 mid-term elections a “rejection” of progressive ideas, but that doesn’t mean that it’s so. Contrary to popular belief among right-wing conservatives, there is more than one valid point of view on the political scene in 2010. Progressives are still out here, advocating for policies and programs that work for the common good, help people whose opportunities have been constricted by circumstances beyond their control, and promote equality, human rights and small-d democracy. And, in fact, Americans count on fundamental, progressive policies and programs in their everyday lives. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so important to keep the progressive fire burning, to keep advocating for progressive programs and to be unrelenting in reminding America about the constructive role that progressivism continues to play.<\/p>\n
And that\u2019s why Occasional Planet is starting a new feature, called \u201cStand-up Progressives.\u201d As events dictate, we\u2019ll highlight people in and out of government, who are fearlessly making the progressive case that is so critical to the well-being of our country. And that\u2019s why a news item we saw on November 10, 2010 prompted us to call out Dennis Kucinich as our first \u201cStand-up Progressive.\u201d<\/p>\n
Congressman Kucinich [D-OH] is unhappy about the just-revealed plan to keep troops in Afghanistan until 2014, thus undermining a previous Obama-administration pledge to begin withdrawing troops in 2011. Most importantly, Kucinich is doing something about it.<\/p>\n
