NOTE: Funny you pick up on her Pebble Beach reference. She probably would like to think it is a private club; it isn't. <br />Gil Cass, NYCGil Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515738343772337569.post-30706571473393254042010-08-08T11:46:25.566-04:002010-08-08T11:46:25.566-04:00The Nazi analogy would be despicable even if Natal...The Nazi analogy would be despicable even if Natalie weren't Jewish.David Cantornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515738343772337569.post-67903907442981229402010-08-08T08:56:23.379-04:002010-08-08T08:56:23.379-04:00People like Natalie are hired guns and good ones w...People like Natalie are hired guns and good ones would do a hit for us if they were on our side. So who they worked for before is irrelevant. Many of us liked and respected Natalie's predecessor David Cantor - I often told him I am ready to hire him to do PR for Ed Notes - if he would work for a dollar a year. David made his mistakes but Natalie is totally out of her realm. <br /><br />Be careful on the use of the term "neo-liberal" if you mean ultra-liberal. In fact neoliberals (liberal in Europe comes from the Adam Smith term and is very different from how it is used here) are free marketeers whose ideas are behind the ed deform movement to privatize everything. <br /><br />I don't know if the Wellstone project is connected in any way to the late Senator who many people revere as the only voice that was respected in the Senate. Some even think his plane crash was not an accident. Wellstone was the furthest you can get from being a neo-liberal as you can get.<br /><br />I don't follow muc about Barbara Boxer - as a Dem she might support ed deform but I don't really know. She is my fellow Brooklyn College alum I believe. I would be careful bringing up the abortion issue here as part of an attack on Natalie.ed notes onlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15018047869059226777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515738343772337569.post-89424845566374888272010-08-08T08:18:13.448-04:002010-08-08T08:18:13.448-04:00I have a feeling she is going to be sorry she ever...I have a feeling she is going to be sorry she ever wrote that article. <br /><br />Great post!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
