Speaking of "Getting It"

James Boyce at HuffPo had a great analysis of what happened at the YearlyKos Convention 2006. Here's a snippit:

But knowing net names and not faces didn't bother anyone. In fact, there wasn't much that bothered anybody. I have been to more than my share of political conventions, get togethers and meetings and the biggest thing I saw at this event was spirit - a sense of common purpose and unity - not false unity of everyone being the same and thinking the same, but true unity where everyone is respected, everyone is equal, everyone is loved for who they are, and everyone is welcome. It was a beautiful thing - it's absolutely unique in politics.
(emphasis mine)

Authenticity is important.

The challenges of change are always hard. It is important that we begin to unpack those challenges that confront this nation and realize that we each have a role that requires us to change and become more responsible for shaping our own future.
