Billmon has it right, this is a scene we’d like to see:
Defendants in the dock at the Ango-American War Crimes Trial of 2010, held at The Hague under the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court.[...]
The remaining defendants were sentenced to life terms at the Guantanamo War Crimes Penitentiary — the same facility used to imprison the remaining leaders of the Al Qaeda terrorist organization, whose own war crimes trial began shortly after this picture was taken.

It is encouraging to see that we, progressives, are finally figuring out that we must be more vocal and assertive if we’re to “win the hearts and minds” of our fellow Americans. With that in mind, South Dakota Democrats have taken to the streets:
We firmly believe this. We are excited to take the message, “Democrats make America stronger”, to the street. We also believe discussion makes America stronger, that is why we did not shy away from reminding America of our values — taking care of the poor and managing the deficit. Based on the outpouring of financial support, we know you agree with us — Democrats do make America stronger.[...]
Executive Director Roger Berggren noted, “I am not sure the ‘Jesus cares for the poor’ sign speaks to everybody, but it does speak to those Christian progressives that have spent the last two years walking though church seeing James Dobson fliers and hearing their Priests and Ministers tell them they cannot be a good Christian and a good Democrat (archived PDF) at the same time.”
