Over on the east coast, Markey or McGovern in MA don't publicly let their lefty freak flags fly, but their public positions on most issues wouldn't never be mistaken for the products of the Heritage Foundation.

On the other hand, here locally, if John Conyers came out publicly as a communist, no one would be surprised.
Complete horseshit, a product of a far right mind which believes anyone not as far to the tight as it is has to be a "lefty".

Horseshit and double negatives!

The dumbest part of this, of course, is that you didn't even think to mention Bernie Sanders.
