The Democratic Party has already indicated its readiness to collaborate in the new administration’s austerity policies.

"Collaborate" ----ROFLMAO! These writers are wing-nuts but they're funny.

When they are nearly communists, a left of center conservative might seem like another Reagan I guess.

Good ! Let the Socialists squirm !!

Thanks for the post and ping.

Speaking of Socialists ...

Exposed: Pelosi's Socialist Ties

Pelosi leader of 'Progressive Caucus'

From those links, these excerpts ...

"DSA/USA, the 'Democratic Socialists of America' are the U.S. arm of the Socialist International. They share the symbol of the fist holding the rose, and they share the tasks to be accomplished — in our case, an altogether different America ...

"Some time ago — the date is missing from the descriptions — 58 members of the U.S. House of Representatives formed a subdivision of the Democratic Socialists of America and called it the Progressive Caucus. Their statement of purpose, as well as their membership list, formed an integral part of the dsausa Web site (www.dsausa.org ). The membership list appeared on the screen with the continuous background of the fist holding the rose, should anyone have missed the connection with the Socialist International."

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., the likely [she is now] new minority leader in the House of Representatives, serves on the executive committee of the socialist-leaning Progressive Caucus, a bloc of about 60 votes or nearly 30 percent of the minority vote in the lower chamber.

The Democratic Socialists of America's chief organizing goal is to work within the Democratic Party and remove the stigma attached to "socialism" in the eyes of most Americans.

"Stress our Democratic Party strategy and electoral work," explains an organizing document of the DSA. "The Democratic Party is something the public understands, and association with it takes the edge off. Stressing our Democratic Party work will establish some distance from the radical subculture and help integrate you to the milieu of the young liberals."

Progressive Caucus

Socialist are calling Arnold "right wing" now.

I clicked around on the website where you got this article, and found they describe Gray Davis much the same as they do Arnold...

...the vote reflected the anger and frustration of workers and middle-class people over the policies of the Davis administration and the failure of the Democrats to provide any answer to worsening social conditions and growing economic insecurity. Davis, a model of the so-called “centrist” Democrat, embodies the rightward shift of the party as a whole over the past quarter century.

< snip- >

All that remains for the Democratic Party, its credibility shattered by its humiliation in the recall election, is to move further to the right and collaborate with the Republican governor in launching new attacks on the working class in California.

I'll bet if I clicked around a little more, I'd find your World Socialists are also of the opinion Bill Clinton is on the right. Let's see...

Clinton offered as the greatest accomplishment of his administration the fact that next week he will submit to Congress the first balanced federal budget in more than 30 years. This announcement, and the bipartisan standing ovation that followed, deserves particular consideration. 

This celebration of budget austerity demonstrates how far the Democratic Party has shifted to the right, to the point where it now poses as the party of fiscal "orthodoxy" against Republican proposals to create a new deficit by cutting taxes for the wealthy even further.

Yep. Only took two tries.

So, the folks at the World Socialist Website, whom you proudly proclaim call Arnold "right wing," also cite Gray Davis and Bill Clinton as examples of the rightward drift of the Democrats.

The Socialists have an odd threshhold for what it takes to be on the Right.

Not sure I agree with them.
