Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

Obama wins!

    “If you examine [Barack Obama’s] agenda, it is completely ordinary, highly partisan, not candid and mostly unresponsive to many pressing national problems…. The contrast between his broad rhetoric and his narrow agenda is stark, and yet the press corps — preoccupied with the political ‘horse race’ — has treated his invocation of ‘change’ as a serious idea rather than a shallow campaign slogan. He seems to have hypnotized much of the media and the public with his eloquence and the symbolism of his life story. The result is a mass delusion that Obama is forthrightly engaging the nation’s major problems when, so far, he isn’t” — Washington Post columnist Robert Samuelson.
