t r u t h o u t | Is there any way the ultra-right will let go of its stranglehold on the US economy?
At the beginning of this month, Truthout published an explosive first-person account of just how reckless the ultra-right is, and how meek its opponents are. "Goodbye to All That: Reflections of a GOP Operative Who Left the Cult [ http://www.truth-out.org/goodbye-all-reflections-gop-operative-who-left-cult/1314907779 ]," by Republican staffer Mike Lofgren, exploded across the Internet, quickly becoming Truthout's most-read story of the year. It helped shift the national debate by revealing the apocalyptic extent of the right-wing madness that currently dominates Washington, DC.
And now (right now!) [ http://www.truth-out.org/wall-street-occupation-live-stream/1316548371 ], fed-up Americans are sitting in a soaked park on granite slabs in the midst of towering skyscrapers, surrounded by police (who have at times become violent) [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYaA-34c-vI ], demonstrating their dissent against the outrages of Wall Street.
Truthout has a dog in this fight - we're committed to the moral value of economic justice. Our team has the privilege to be right in the thick of this epic struggle for the future of the United States, because our dedicated readers support our work with their hard-earned money.
