Make of that what you will, but the very fact that the NY Times would consider a non-intuitionalist at all tell us just how messed up the country is at the moment. They said as much when they noted how badly all the institutions have collapsed under DJT. The light may be coming on that the rot is a direct result of too much institutional thinking, and too much coddling of our capitalist overlords.
-- yeah that they consider Lizbitch a progressive (check her record) shows how messed up the NYT is @ least
You may need to get your thinking realigned a bit. Letting the perfect be the enemy of the good guarantees the success of the bad -- truly bad, in this case. I know you think a lot of Bernie, but no one in the Congress really likes the guy. He'll be great at rallying the troops, much like DJT does on the other side, but it won't go anywhere. I don't see even the most progressive members of Congress being that excited about his program.
And what part of EW's record bother you? Is it the GOP period, or something more recent? If it's the former, then keep in mind the rule of converts: they're among the most committed.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
