Hey Republicans: don't propose stopping the #1 waste of money by far to save money - stopping the 2.5 BILLION on the endless wars going on 9 years!!! Propose dropping 12th grade and social programs and health care and education of Americans!!!

Red Staters do Paul McCartney medley in honor of them and the Republican Party taking the U.S.A. back to the Stone Age with things like banning 12th grade, no health care reform, creationism, banning contraception, putting religion back in government and school, and claiming they're fiscally responsible but NEVER mentioning the #1 expenditure: the endless wars going on 9 years now:

If you think the neo-cons could do 9/11, co-opting the Tea Party is child's play to them compared to that.

ReplyDeleteI guess this is the only thing we'll ever see on TV concerning JFK for generations, notice the JFK legacy is blacklisted from TV? Your kids won't get to know exactly what JFK stood for. I said this a few years ago, actually, that figures like JFK and FDR have disappeared from TV for generations. I guess distorted views of them are OK for TV from here on out:

So are you LISTENING to Alex Jones, Danny?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH-zRrutJ_Q
He's saying exactly what I've been saying for a LONG time. I was screaming this stuff last summer, and you keep telling me I'm wrong. When people start rising up, everybody who wants a movement moves in to help move it in their direction. Just because the RNC is hitting it for all they're worth, and the white supremacists are trying pretty hard, doesn't mean that lefties who want the same things can't get in there and join with the Ron Paul people, the ORIGINAL people, who are still there, booing the assholes and doing stuff like INVITING WILL GRIGG TO SPEAK AT THEIR RALLIES. They're the ONLY people trying to stand up to take our country back. And there's Alex Jones, singing it.
DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER IF THE PRESIDENT IS OBAMA OR PALIN OR DONALD DUCK!!!!!!
FUCK!
Forget who you disagree with. Forget who you think is a fucking liar. Get with the people trying to rise up to make this stop OR THEY WILL FAIL... and WE will fail. Stop listening to the shills for the Democrats and the polemicists who JUST want to make a buck on the culture wars, PRETENDING to be activists for "democracy"....
Alex Jones, in this linked video, is PRECISELY right.
People have to stop yammering about trivia and get out there and FIGHT to stop these evil motherfuckers.

CPAC will feature a Pelosi piñata and Reid punching bag.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow, conservatives from around the country will converge at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), which serves as a “showcase of the heart and soul of American conservatism.” The Washington Scene reports that this year’s CPAC will prominently feature a Nancy Pelosi piñata and a Harry Reid punching bag for guests to take turns beating:
Attendees at a conservative conference in town this week will have the opportunity to whack a pinata of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

ReplyDelete65 to 70% of the American economy is consumer driven. If the barons of industry outsource jobs offshore for cheaper wages and benefits then Americans lose a paycheck. If Americans lose their wage income they can no longer afford to be consumers of durable and non-durable goods so the American economy falters. Have the captains and barons of industry come to the realization that if you kill the income of the American consumer you kill the golden goose that laid the golden eggs ?

Farouk Shami, a Palestinian-born hairdresser who built a $1 billion manufacturing company around a popular line of hair irons, is moving all of his production of hand-held appliances from China to a sprawling new factory here.
The move flies in the face of conventional wisdom, which says gadgets like this are best made in a low-cost country. But, he says, outsourcing has led to a loss of control over manufacturing and distribution.
"We'll make more money this way -- because we'll have better quality and a better image," says the 66-year-old, who says his company, Farouk Systems Inc., spends about $500,000 a month fighting counterfeits, most of which he says originate in China. The company collects the fake products and tracks the source, and then brings action in China to shut down illegal producers.
Mr. Shami figures having production under his nose will help him control quality and inventory, and also fight the fakes, since imported irons will automatically be suspect. He sells in 104 countries, but the U.S. represents over 60% of the company's sales.
"I think you're starting to see more manufacturers rethinking outsourcing," says Daniel Meckstroth, an economist at the Manufacturers Alliance/MAPI, a public policy and research group based in Arlington, Va., calling a June speech by General Electric Co. CEO Jeffrey Immelt, where he said that overseas outsourcing had gone too far and that U.S. companies needed to expand domestic production, a "bellwether of what's happening in manufacturing."
Besides GE's efforts to manufacture more within the U.S., other companies such as St. Louis-based electrical-equipment maker Emerson has shifted some production of items such as appliance motors from Asia to Mexico and the U.S., in part to be closer to customers in North America.

But it appears that one issue does unite Americans across the political spectrum.
ReplyDeleteA new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds that the vast majority of Americans are vehemently opposed to a recent Supreme Court ruling that opens the door for corporations, labor unions, and other organizations to spend money directly from their general funds to influence campaigns.
As noted by the Post's Dan Eggen, the poll's findings show "remarkably strong agreement" across the board, with roughly 80% of Americans saying that they're against the Court's 5-4 decision. Even more remarkable may be that opposition by Republicans, Democrats, and Independents were all near the same 80% opposition range. Specifically, 85% of Democrats, 81% of Independents, and 76% of Republicans opposed it. In short, "everyone hates" the ruling.
