Progressive is merely a sneaky way of saying "Socialist" or "Communist" - they can be used interchangably

Exactly. And it's such a benign, almost positive sounding word. I mean, who wants to be against "progress"? It's the "hat" that hides the "horns", imo.

The Progressive Caucus is a fully supported subsidiary of the DSA, that's why I bookmarked the thread. Hillary thinks that she is going to get away with running as a centrist as compared to Dean et alias, but we can't let her get away with it.

It may be sneaky today simply because alot of the folks that dealt with and remember the Progressive Party founded by, (FDR V.P.), Henry Wallace in the late 1940's are no longer with us. According to my dearest Ms. Coulter, Wallace was an unabashed communist that left the Democrat party and ran a communist presidential campaign in 1948. It is very telling that in 1999 the Clinton administration dedicated a room @ Agriculture Department to Mr. Wallace. McGovern spoke @ the dedication and said he ran on a similar platform with the help of a young Yale Law School grad named Bill Clinton. ISYN. Treason pg 193.
