Obviously the latter. Now THAT'S an example of how to be an obnoxious leftist without being a counterproductive idiot.

Option 2 is more obnoxious but option 1 is objectively worse, so 2.

True Leftism, because it hurts both the True Leftists and the standard Democratic hacks, while Grayson style leftism actually can go somewhere.

There's a lot to say about Alan Grayson, but at least he's actually DONE SOMETHING as opposed to sitting around all day masturbating about THE REVOLUTION like our True Leftist gang of chuckles.

"True leftism" seems rather badly defined, and sometimes seems to include all who dare oppose Hillary.

You can oppose Hillary without being an ISIS and Putin apologist.

Alan Grayson would've won in a landslide if he talked about massacring the bourgeoisie and waxing poetic about the virtues of Vladimir Putin. What a DINO.

Hillary opposes ISIS and Putin, and since Hillary is Satan, ISIS and Putin must be good. You should know how True Leftist logic works by now. Wink

If by "doing something" you mean getting DUIs and crashing his Porsche into a bus than yes, he has done something.

When the shoe is on the other foot, it would be interesting to see Graysonites crash town halls.

Ed Murray is a Democrat. If Democrats were as horrible as you True Leftists constantly preach, he wouldn't have signed off on it.

I always thought Garcetti had some true leftist in him. Just enough to bump the minimum wage to $13.25 for everyone and $15.37 for hospitality workers.

Regarding the poll, Alan Grayson is good enough to stand with.

Opposing ISIS, Putin, and Hillary gets you called sexist and a true leftist.

True Leftism. I can't respect an ideology whose main figure is a domestic abuser.

Alan Grayson-style leftism built the American middle class, freed the slaves, liberated Europe from the Nazis, and put a man on the goddamn moon.

I always have to be reminded that being an abolitionist was somehow also being an ancestor to true leftists.......
