"modernised social democracy "

The Third Way is nothing more than communism minus Marxist economic theory or, more correctly, the new dialectic of using capitalism to destroy capitalism.

They're not very good at it.

"What would you do Without FR?

How would You Feel without FR?

Suppose one day you tried to log on and Free Republic wasn’t there?

Where would you get your up to the minute news? How about the live threads as things are happening?

How would you know about the latest Demorat scams, anti-second amendment schemes and all the other liberal, anti-American ploys that are tried every single day?

Insight into world affairs, brilliant wit, sharp retorts, instant information gratification are a few of the things that make FR so vital.

How would you keep on top of things without FR?

How would you know who to contact to complain about the lying politicians, Media Bias, Hollyweirds latest mouth off, sponsors of these idiots, company policies that are unfair and all the other things we need to know to counteract the liberal mindset and the evil plans of liberals?

How would you be part of a Freep?

What would you do without FR????

Freedom isn’t free.

Any time you have "Progressive" and "Democratic" in the same article, and no mention of "Republicianism", you know the author is really talking about "Socialism". Who needs it.

This guy is director of the London School of Economics, which taught African leaders how to run an economy. Enough said.

The Third Way is economically unfeasible and this economist skirts all around the truth but tells a lie. The reason left-of-center governments are being voted out is due to economic mismanagement inherent in socialist governments and the bills coming due. Germany is restructing, Austria has just made a move in that direction, and France is advocating the same cuts in social services/benefits - so their fleeting hold as left-of-center governments might starve off being dumped during the next election cycle. For those countries mentioned, many former WARSAW Pack nations only know socialism but are embracing free markets and capitalism in order to lift themselves out of proverty - yes proverty; Poland is a very sad place and nothing is painted, East Germany is not much better off in some respects....

This writer has never been to Poland or any of the countries he thinks are going Left.... The Left is brankrupted thanks to Bush!

Hate to tell this guy, but the "Third Way" is a dead end.

centre left

This concept is meaningless to Americans. Right-wrong, left-right, good-sucks, that's how we perceive reality. None of this 'a little this, a little that.' Make a clean definition, all or nothing. The real deal, or no deal.

[colorado tanker]

The Third Way in Britain has mainly been Thatcherite economic and foreign policy dressed up with a Labour smiley face. The Blair government has been spending so heavily, however, they may still strangle the goose laying the golden eggs.

France and Germany don't really have Third Way governments, they're still a bunch of socialists.

[eddie willers]

The centre left remains in a strong position.....After September 11 2001, the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, mass protests against globalisation, the bursting of the stock market bubble and the subsequent corporate scandals, and with economic growth stuttering almost everywhere, things look more difficult.

ALL having to do with America.
IOW, as the US goes, so goes the world.
Their only chance of succeeding is if WE go left.

It's our job to make that impossible.
