Somebody'd better cozy up to these folks (y'know....Americans) before they're legislated back into the Dark Ages by the regressives. Democrats give a 6.2 (on a scale where a 1 equates to a public burning and a 10 denotes true peace and tolerance) on the effortometer, but it'll take a TRUE Progressive Party (helmed by technocrats of every stripe) to make the real strides.
