Don't Believe the [Conservative] Hype!
http://www.ourfuture.org is the home of Campaign for America's Future. Here's the "Failure of Conservatism," brought to you by conservative ideologue (and now-New York Times columnist) William Kristol. In this video, Kristol butts up against the limits of his own conservative views. America's ready for a change! Unfortunately, ideologues like Kristol would sooner defend old (and broken) conservative strategies than chart a new course that might actually work for ordinary Americans.

Take Back America
This country, what we need,
Is progressives to take the lead.
So let's Take Back America.
Let's unite and stand tall,
And win health care for all.
And let's Take Back America.
Green jobs for our nation
To end our oil fixation.
For the planet and economy.
We will fight for social justice,
Righting wrongs that are amongst us.
And we'll Take Back America.
To our troops in Iraq,
We will bring you back.
And support you here at home.
Jobs that are well paid,
Fair trade over free trade,
When we Take Back America.
When progressives take the lead,
With our vision to succeed,
We will Take Back America.

Common Sense On The Bailout
http://OurFuture.org, the website of the Campaign for America's Future, talks to a labor-based financial industry expert, Damon Silvers, about the roots of the Wall Street financial crisis and a progressive approach to addressing it. He says that the regulatory black hole that many Wall Street titans operated in has to be closed. He also outlines why Congress should "tear up" the Bush administration's "blank check" proposal for a $700 billion bailout and replace it with legislation that embraces the "Call for Common Sense" (at http://www.ourfuture.org/page/2008093923/bailout-call-common-sense) that has been endorsed by a cross-section of grassroots organizations. Silvers is associate general counsel for the AFL-CIO. (Flip Video courtesy of the Voter Genome Project.)
