Cake or Death is a false dichotomy: it does not describe the full range of choices.

For there is always the live-lion's choice: Kill The Threat.

That's what's really driving both the smart Republicans (who are mostly my kind of folks) and the smart Democrats (who should just quit that Party and go to something that better matches their intellects and the nation's best interest anyway).

Some people prefer to be their lives' subjects, not their lives' objects. I make life happen not Everything happens to me.

Admit it: that really bothers the shit out of a whole lot of "progressives." Yeah, you're right, that's the employment of the same disdainful quotes as are wrapped around socialist. But Obama's apologists are pretty much MIA in trying to show -- explaining is cheap, and not always true -- that Obama's policy ideas aren't grounded in socialism: his background and life experiences hardly suggest any other paradigm but. The guy's never been enough of a businessman to grok capitalism. Indeed, since when was he ever part of anything but the administrative overhead? Not even as an investor, AFAIK.
