Disappointing, isn't it?

Good for dipping your toe in! I just started going to regular meetings with the Puget Sound branch of the International Socialist Organization up here in Seattle. If there's a group anywhere near where you live, I highly suggest jumping in and getting involved if you can. You can learn a ton, and it's a really good way to get connected within the activist community. I've already had more challenging political discussions with them than I have in years of talking to people, and been a participant in my first real protest. Even going to see John Carlos speak tomorrow!

Also, I think your position just about sums up mine. Well said.
