12/19 Digby: The Conservative Movement Will Always Threaten America

December 19, 2013

Blogger Digby explains the historical context for progressive politics in America, how blogging shifted journalism, why America will always have a far right, Bobby Jindal defends Duck Dynasty star for his racism and homophobia, the fever that drives right wing politics, Georgia Congressman Jack Kingston calls for poor kids to sweep floors for their school lunches and why the right will always push for economic plutocracy and social intolerance.

On The Better Half: A new epic debate between Sam and Libertarian radio host Matt DiGeronimo on everything from Nazi’s to the minimum wage and why minimum wage increase would be nothing but good and your IMs.

And keep the conversation going on our morning thread
