Too bad. 🙂

It’s a bit sad, but PerfectSense is getting every post zapped. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy, but it still sucks.

Zoot, may I suggest your reply was far more thoughtful than they deserved.

A Short List of Pres. Obama’s Accomplishments

I parted ways with it once a kill order was put on an American citizen in Yemen.

One more item to add to the list? Bringing some dignity back to the office.

Random Thougts

PW you hit on a very good point. How many Americans really view the wealth and resources of the nation as “theirs”? And if they did, would these ideas be easier to implement? Hmmmmmm

The autocrats and kleptocrats have risen throughout history in times of great financial and political turmoil. They thrive in times of fear, uncertainty and succeed as long as there is a “them” to oppose

How many thriving nations are currently run by extreme right-wing governments?

Maybe Isreal? Russia? I stuggle to think of many more.

Whether autocratic or kleptocratic, all extreme right wing governments end. Either at the ballot box or more often on the battlefield.

How do we break that cycle? Or can we, given our very natures? I sure hope we figure it out.

Everything from “Over There” belongs “Here!”

Too many people treated that site like political porn, which I guess in a way it now is.

That got way out of hand. I have less than zero interest in revisting that absurdity.

One favorite poster I would love to see here is Freethinkergirl. Anyone know her?

I agree, the word count and passion have been beaten down.

Obama: Culture Warrior?

I like that theory. Thanks.

eileen, I’ll admit it, I don’t listen to the weekly addresses. Can I listen to them on whitehouse.gov?

You make some compelling points. By some estimations only 25% or so of the needed financial reforms were put into place over the last two years. One suggestion Obama came up with was to levy fees on banks with over $50 billion in assets. Congress shot that down.

Many laud the administration for even being able to get 25% through a reluctant Dem Senate and a do-nothing GOP.

Do you think it is because their policies are so different from Bush’s comparatively speaking, or because they are the needed policies? I wonder about that.

When your administration is populated by ex- and soon-to-be Wall Streeters do their positions automatically start from a point of deference to that point of view? I can’t help but think it does.
