Obama Least Agressive in Prosecuting Wall St

"Try to see it my way -

do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?

Or to see it your way -

and run a risk of knowing Democracy will soon be gone"

There is an evil which ought to be guarded against in the indefinite accumulation of property from the capacity of holding it in perpetuity by…corporations. The power of all corporations ought to be limited in this respect. The growing wealth acquired by them never fails to be a source of abuses. - JAMES MADISON

"He who sacrifices civil liberties for security

will end up having neither"

-BENJAMIN FRANKLIN (?)

"When two tea party members go a walking

The dumber of the two does the talking"

---I before E except on Mc Donald's Farm--

"I'd rather see Hubert Humphrey dead than to be a Republican

'Cause he's so stoned on compromise that he won't know where I am."

President Obama is the least aggressive prosecutor of Wall Street and bank establishments of the past five presidents. That means Ronald Reagan, George Bush 41, Bill Clinton, and George W Bush. As to why this is so George Washington’s blog didn’t exactly explain. Clearly there has never been a greater need for Wall Street prosecution- and failure to do so indicates the President’s administration isn’t doing its job. But what it means that while the tea party whines like a scalded cat, they never had it so good. Their cherished wall street gang was bailed out with billions, their taxes were cut, and every manner of compromise was made with them, all the while keeping rhetoric from the President about the right very tame indeed. The President utterly refuses to take names and kick ass. So clearly the key to the tea party’s hostility twords this President must lie elsewhere. But who can say where? I really don’t want to play the race card but what else are we to think? And new statistics say that the tea party’s chances of massive losses in congress next year are quite likely and probable. Congress as a whole only has a nine percent approval rating. This is the same as Hugo Chavez of Venesuela, and actually two points below the idea of the entire United States government going Communist. Just think about it. The citizens would prefer a communist government running our country to the tea party’s continuing to run it. If the President had any sense he’d enlist many others to make speech for him on the economy with all of the Ross Perot charts and graphs reveling what pathological liars the tea party crowd is.

Senator Bernie Sanders whoosed out today in saying that he would not sign a petetion by an organization of doctors advocating for single payer health care. The petetion was to advocate the overturning of the mandentory purchase of "junk insurance" from the big Health Care insurance providers at their jacked up prices. The doctors are absolutely right, and Bernie Sanders wins the whoos award today for "pulling an Obama". Also Senator Sanders dropped the ball in saying that Bush administration prosecution for war crimes was not important. You know, Stephen King has a book out now on going back and preventing the Kennedy assasenation. But if we had prevented 9 - 11 from happening this would have had a far more profound effect on the last ten years of American history. Apparently (according to Phyllis Green) some radio station in town had uncovered new evidence that Dick Chaney personally planned the events of 9 - 11. Let's not wait fifty years to NOT find out the truth on this one. Perhaps Sanders never heard the adage that, "For Evil to prevail, all that needs to be necessary is for Good People to do nothing." We need pro-active people on our side and not just re-active, and believe me, we've had precious little of that over the past ten years, either. Like it or not we are moving into the future. Things that were acceptable in the past are and ought to be no longer acceptable. These include the massive giveaway of the resources of the people of this country to the rich internationalists. I'm not entirely sure, for instance what form "single payer" health care should take. Do we just want to extend Medicare for everybody? Perhaps not. That's what the internet is for - to exchange ideas. It surprises me that the bigger the internet gets the more zombiezed the American people get. It's counter intuitive to me that the more information available to Americans and the more readily it can be shared and discussed with others- - that people's mental processes seem stuck somehow in the reptilian stage of "just surviving".

“When it comes to Newt Gingrich – I’m a fundamentalist- - I believe in revelations”. The “New Revelation” with Newt involves the real reason why he took over a million dollars from Freddy Mac as a “consultant”. Newt’s job was to identify friends in congress. Randy Rhodes coined the phrase, “Newt Gingrich isn’t for sale; he’s only for rent. When the cash stops coming he’ll turn and stab you in the back”. We all pretty much knew you can tell when Newt is lying- - anytime you see his lips move. He is the quintessential wormy slime-ball. Of course the Wickepedia does state that Newt was brought up on “dozens of ethics violations” in congress, but that all disappeared, we are to believe. Newt has risen to number two in the polls. I think it would be the mother of all campaign battles were Newt to actually get the Republican nomination next year. You know every Democrat and his dog would come out of the woodwork to participate in the campaign. Newt has developed a lot of enemies over the years. It still bothers me why supposed Christians would pick him out of the bunch as somehow “God’s choice for the nomination”. This Republican field of candidates is not conservative. No conservative of decades past would want to know them. They are reactionaries, pure and simple. Basically they just want to blow government up altogether. Indeed it would be Obama’s side of the debt ceiling crisis that could quote Ronald Reagan in a speech where Reagan made all of the basic arguments that the democrats were making in August. Ronald Reagan granted amnesty to illegal alians. He never proposed building an electrified barbed wire fence. If you were doing a profile of various past Presidents as to which one best represented their platform, that would be William Mc Kinley, the way I see it. But they’d even have doubts about Mc Kinley because he wanted the US off a strict gold standard. Of course the whole “corporations are people” doctrine was just coming into flower back them. One reading the fourteenth amendment of the constitution could not possibly conclude corporations were people because it says that these people were “Born” here, and it also uses the word “Citizens”. Clearly this whole amendment is talking about the rights of citizens, and most notably freed Black citizens. When you interperate something you need to look for the antecedent as to when was the first use of a particular word, and in what context was that particular word, like “persons” introduced. Essentially these tea party appeal to an America that “never was” - - to begin with.

Today is Wednesday November 16, 2011. They say that it is a healthy organism that is able to expel hostile poisons within it. A healthy body does so readily, a sick body does so with difficulty, and if they aren’t expelled at all, death occurs. So what does that say about Rush Limbaugh who is not only reviling women who are sexually groped, but now Rush is defending Penn State coaches saying this whole sex thing is just a scam to ruin the names of good, fine people. Now they say everyone in college football knew about Coach Sandusky and all worked to cover it up. That sounds like one sick organism whose infection has spread far and wide. Randy Rhodes wonders aloud why we can't just have a political discourse but it seemingly is a prerequisie to being a tea bagger that you're just plain Mean. You are foul mouth and ill mannered and miserly in attitude. And in particular one wonders why Rush Limbaugh can't hold onto a woman. It sure isn't because he lacks the money to wine and dine a woman beyond their wildest fancy. I won't even want to speculate what "button" was pushed in Rush brain when he heard that child molesters were coming under attack. - - - Sandusky is now trying to mitigate the charges saying it was all “just horse play in the showers”. You have to keep in mind these were disadvantaged kids to begin with, so abuse may be all they’ve known. But now it gets worse because the whole group “The Second Mile” that was supposedly a haven for kids, may itself be in the business of pimping out young boys. It just gets sicker and sicker. Thom Hartman keeps telling us that some "revolution" is just around the corner. That depends on the basic health of the national faboric as to whether it's able to expell the poisonous organism of the tea party. Sure I heard that long list he read and how we qualify on every count for a revolution. But some living organisms just have a death wish or something and are unwilling to take the needed steps to effect a cure. And yes, you have to break an egg to make an omlet. And if that's a violent act take it up with that Cheese guy who told about the chef who was arrested by the police for beating an egg!

Perhaps the nation’s way of dealing with the virus of the tea party is to break out in all of these occupation protests. It’s a messy and inefficient way of curing the problem – that’s for sure. Perhaps they should have watched the Tea Party protests more closely to observe how they did it. Michelle Bachman has 23 adopted kids. Randy Rhodes was wondering how she could possibly give any of those children the attention he or she deserved and still run for President at the same time, and serve as congresswoman. The answer is that it’s impossible. But people are so impressed by posers they don’t ask themselves questions like this. People stopped asking questions about Sarah Palin’s life long ago. She’s had her fifteen minutes of fame. Now Newt Gingrich is continuing to rise in the polls and now he’s number two. I don’t deny that Newt is a big number two, but the question is he qualified to be President. I went looking for dirt on Newt the other day but didn’t get past the Wickipedia article, which is probably a poor choice to get anything but a fawning resume. There was nothing I could sink my teeth into to attack. We all, of course think that Cain has even more skeletons in his closet. What we do know is that Herman Cain is one of the most bogus candidates to walk the face of the earth. We are sold the image of a guy who was just sitting at home unemployed or something and one day decided "I would like to make pizza". It turns out he bought Godfather Pizza from Pillsburry, which means he had to have big bucks to accomplish that. Even in 1993 he had enough status in Kansas City to be able to challenge President Clinton head on - on the subject of the Health Care bill. We know he worked for the Kansas City federal reserve. And we also know he is in tight with the Koch brothers. So he is just not "some guy off the street" who somehow won the political lottery. He isn't Joe the Plumber. Come to think of it he IS Joe the Plumber because HE was a fraud, too. He wasn't really a plumber and he wasn't earning over $250,000 a year, at least then. But as we said a couple days ago it seems every person elected to congress is virtually guarenteed of becoming at least a Millionaire really soon, because he has access to government perks that the rest of us can only dream about.
