    ezpz commented on the blog post Cory Booker’s Slip Reveals Role of Private Equity in Local Government Funding

    2012-05-21 17:21:25View | Delete

    Oh no, I’ve know for a long time that 0bama is even to the right of Cheney. I just like to point it out whenever I have a chance – for the benefit of those who still think he’s as great as HE thinks he is.

    Double standard, anyone?

    On the same day his campaign launched an attack on Mitt Romney‘s record in private equity, President Obama is attending a big-dollar fundraiser at the Manhattan home of one of the industry’s top figures.

    Hamilton “Tony” James — the president of the Blackstone Group, the nation’s largest private equity firm — is hosting a $35,800-a-head dinner for Obama, with 60 Democratic allies expected to attend, according to a campaign official. Many in attendance are expected to have ties to the private equity sector…

    If by ‘activity thread’ you mean under my account, it seems to be there — a few times, actually because I kept trying, but they all seem to be incomplete. Maybe something is being automatically rejected? A Huff link? What I was trying to say is that Zimmerman was on “uppers and downers” (Adderall and [...]

    One more time…

    Leaked details also revealed Zimmerman was taking the prescription drugs Adderall, which is prescribed for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and narcolepsy, and Temazepam, an insomnia medication, said Crump. “He was on uppers and downers at the same time,” the attorney said. “These are medications that can cause side effects such as agitation, delusions [...]

    And there’s this VERY important, yet much overlooked tidbit:

    Leaked details also revealed Zimmerman was taking the prescription drugs Adderall , which is prescribed for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and narcolepsy, and Temazepam , an insomnia medication, said Crump. “He was on uppers and downers at the same time,” the attorney said. “These are medications that can cause side effects such [...]

    2012-01-27 22:20:58View | Delete

    Yes, polls in general, but this one in particular, seem to be lagging (non) indicators when in comes to politics with so much volatility.
    .
    I agree that Romney will likely win the Florida primary, and yes, Newt is probably done.

    Have a nice weekend too.

    This poll was taken between Jan 22 and Jan 24.
    Three to five days ago? That’s a lifetime in politics.

    MSNBC peddles this poll but fails to (verbally) point out that given the debate performances of the last couple of days, it’s pretty much outdated.

    This only means that he won’t issue a permit before Feb 21.
    It does NOT mean that he won’t approve it —– after the election…

    From the LA Times:

    …It’s unclear whether the administration will reject the pipeline project outright or will revert to the longer time line that it announced in November, which calls for a final decision to be made in early 2013, the people familiar with the decision said….

    He can’t afford to lose the support Darryl Hannah and countless others who are actively and vehemently opposed to this pipeline.

    Thank you! And thanks for the link to that site. It looks quite interesting.
    Like popey99, I too have cut back on reading political sites, The rampant ‘bot’ism is more than I care to endure.

    And the sad thing is that they’re right. Many of the bots WILL vote for this poseur.
    Just look at Kos, Rachel, Ed. Americablog, etc.
