think progressive

there's a really great post over at thinkprogress from guest blogger John Halpin,
Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress. (as they put it, 'focusing on the foundations of progressive thought, communications, and public opinion analysis')

here's a little taste:

"Progressivism and liberalism, in particular, are built on distinct but complementary histories and ideas. Rather than trying to eliminate one tradition or another, or combine them into one label, it makes more sense philosophically and strategically to build on the positive aspects of each tradition and fight about other things we disagree on."

it's kind of a long post, but well worth the read. pop on over & take a gander.

they also have some great ads from AmericanProgress.org posted up here
