Webb Sloane
| Introduction | Just to clear up any confusion, my name is Webb Sloane but friends call me Komrade Karl. To my friends, my first name is Komrade (it is not a title) and my last name is Karl. I am an astute observer of modern American politics. My keen insight, hard hitting commentary, and solid arguments are based upon grass roots beliefs and "middle of the road" common sense. As a netroot progressive Democrat, I speak truth to power. As all true middle of the road Democrats, who are the ones who really hold the power at the DNC, I am a Vegan Ecowarrior. I indulge in aromatherapy with a prescription for my Canadian glaucoma medication. I have an advanced degree in Human Economics with a minor in Handmade Bead-work and Wealth Redistribution. |
