#
- For years (coupla decades, actually) I predicted that the oligarchs would impose some form of capital strike. They did. And here we are.
#
- TeaBaggers, in their authentic ignorance, mis-read the Constitution. Yuppies, in their hypocricy, are of course more sophisticated.
#
- Rand Paul is in with 53%. Wish I could like him. Would be good to hear a Libertarian voice now and again. *shrug* @

#
- Meanwhile, in the rest of the world: Iran schedules death by stoning for a woman, tomorrow. (Authorities jailed her lawyers. Thugs' trick.)
#
- I wonder: will TeaBaggers go for their guns if they don't get their way? Betcha some will / would.
#
- Rand Paul … all the class and stage presence of a door to door vacuum salesman. Yikes. Senator.
#
- Rand Paul put 2 thoughts together just now. I know that for a fact. Cuz he stretched/reached for 3 … and didn't make it.
#
- Since when have individuals in USofA had to balance their household budgets?! Rand Paul, paradigmatic TeaBag lunatic. Raving-style loonie.
#
- What neither yuppies nor TeaBaggers dare grapple with: nobody has balanced their personal consumption. (Well yaa I have. But I don't count.)
#
- Gov says, "Hey fisherman, nice rod. Here's a net". And Rand Paul types say, "Oh no you don't, wealth comes from individuals. Fuck your net."
#
- Rand Paul put it very well … American poor / vets are now free to sleep in filth, under bridges and in ditches.
#
- I'm on the record as a leftie, year after year calling for the strong clear voice of conservatism. I get US TeaBaggers. Zounds / gadzooks.
#
- BTW, even if this sounds silly: know a friend who hasn't voted? are the polls still open? chances are s/he is a Dem. Get him/her up&out!

- In the age of restraint and sustainability dear old Welch (former CEO General Electric) councils GOP become "party of growth". *head/desk*
#
- Dear old Jack Welch … still talking about bigger pie. "Rising tide" bullshit: the oligarchs are stealing the f'n bakery! GOP dinosaurs.
#
- Bloomberg's Al Hunt nailed it: on tax rises, growth of economy, and TARP recovery folk got the facts /wrong/ by 2:1 … facts don't matter?!
#
- Q: how did Reid put a W in his column with Dems having such a poor showing in rural American? I thought his goose was cooked.

- The potash deal as case in point: there was a decision reached by deliberation. It was neither transparent nor participatory. No discourse.
#
- NB If the decision had been For, it would have been just as closed. With Liberal gov't? or NDP? No diff … the system is gamed. #
