Republican Lawmakers Spin Funding Tall Tales

Here comes the parade of clichés, shouted out by the usual suspects from the rabid right.



Conservati­ves regularly concoct idiotic arguments to sell to those that fall for such malarkey - namely a lot of 'baggers', low-info carb-swall­owers, the scared stiff, and all the zombie cadets out there in the vast right-wing debris field.

BofA Likely To Alter Rules For Debit Card Fees After Criticism

Qwikster out - Skrewster in -



The new Wells Fargo and BofA card fees - charged to those who don't have a big chunk cash in their account - are really just the latest evidence of the 'Serfs and Lords' morality brewing in the dark hearts and minds of uber-wealt­hy conservati­ves - who sense an explosion of new power, and believe that their time has finally come to re-arrange American culture and establish once and for all that personal profit, and the individual autonomy that flows from it, is the goal of human endeavor - and the government­'s only role is to protect those endeavors.



Reagan's famous, mythical 'Shining City on a Hill' turns out to be where all the pool-clean­ing, leaf-blowi­ng, dignity-cr­ushing jobs of the future will be for those who thought they were middle-cla­ss enjoyers of the American Dream... and they'll spend their nights back down in the streets of Serf City.

One Percenters' Income Nearly Tripled In Last Three Decades

One Percenters' Income Nearly Tripled In Last Three Decades

"The last 30 years have been very good to the rich.

Income for the wealthiest Americans has nearly tripled since 1979, while remaining relatively stable for the rest of the country, according to figures released this week by the Congressional Budget Office. The numbers offer a striking illustration -- the latest one in a long series -- of how wide the gap has grown between America's richest citizens and everyone else."

Rick Perry's Flat Tax Plan: New To Him?

Perry's plans are sophomoric nonsense. There is ample money - tons of it - sitting in corporate coffers all across the American corporate landscape, and enormous piles of it in the assets of the uber-wealt­hy. That's not the problem - the problem is that America is missing it's customers; who want to buy products. If we poured trillions into the pockets of ordinary Americans, they would buy those products and the conveyor belt would start up again and the money would flow - like water into ancient Rome - refreshing everything and washing stagnation down the drains - allowing a society to remember how to prosper. But nobody on the right even knows what I'm talking about, much less ever want to go there...

First it's anti-marij­uana actives by Obama's feds; now it's anti press freedom.
