Stephen Smoot's latest article is about how the American Left should champion Clement Attlee instead of Che Guevara. Who is Clement Attlee? Well he was the Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1945 to 1951, after Winston Churchill was voted out. But he's Smoot's example of who we leftists should emulate - totally ineffectual and useless, but tough on Commies.
This is a pretty amazingly dishonest article; once again we are treated to the theory that Hitler was a Leftist. We are encouraged to believe that all leftists secretly want to impose a totalitarian dictatorship. He represents Michael Moore's position deceitfully (Moore has, in fact, championed various health systems of Western Europe, despite Smoots denial).
