Also from Larison.
Jul. 31st, 2008 02:28 pmThis one has a lot of resonance in my own life right now.
From http://www.amconmag.com/larison/2008/07/29/loyalty/, where Larison agrees with Glenn Greenwald's recent post, "Things I learned today about democracy":
"Something that the defenders of party loyalty seem never to be able to grasp is that loyalty is a mutual obligation. It is not only something that supporters are supposed to give to their party, but it is something that party leaders owe to the people who put them and keep them in their positions."
