funkygal commented on the diary post It pays to be wrong in the foreign policy game by Philippe Duhart.
You reminded me of this from Scott Fitzgerald’s “Great Gatsby”.
They were careless people – they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together , and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

Just to expand on what you said, turn and run away fast from anything hyped up the lame stream media punditry class and the 1%.

Me thinks the global elites will meddle in the Greek elections to defeat the leftist leader Syriza. Not sure if TPTB have run out of the option of taking over Greece thru a technocrat coup.

Kristine Frezzao of RT did a better summation (I was there in Chicago witnessing the veterans ) in the ALyona show. The video is not up yet so can’t link to it.

funkygal commented on the diary post Eliminating the ‘99%’ Can Lead to a Better Message for Social Justice by brasch.
Enough commenters have made good points – letsgetitdone, papau etc. Let me get to the more specific cases of the liberal 1& you mentioned. Bill Gates is out to destroy our public schools and deskill/degrade teaching. Warren Buffet donated money to the already monstrous Gates foundation. George Clooney is providing a charismatic, cool face for humanitarian intervention [...]

My cousin said the high prices are partly due to regulations that require “cleaner” gasoline in CA. Is there any truth to it?

funkygal commented on the blog post Harry Reid Calls for Filibuster Reform
Harry Reid suddenly felt his spine? No. He is bloviating sensing it won’t happen (because Dims will loose control in 2012). If Dims retain control, then Harry will go etch-a-sketching.

funkygal commented on the diary post The Making of an Evolution: Obama “Comes Out” for Marriage Equality by Gregg Levine.
“The truth, of course, is that Gay money has such an impact on evolution that when you put a plasmodial mass of jelly next to it, it becomes a spine.”
ROFLMAO. Lordy lordy lordy. Recc’ed for that sentence alone :-)

funkygal commented on the diary post Obama is almost for marriage equality. Almost, but not really. by Bill Perdue.
Though I object to the demeaning of sheep – not only you but everywhere, because the rest of the animal kingdom are more intelligent – way way more – than us Homo Sapiens (except for the “savage” Native Americans and indigenous communities). For example, they didn’t cause climate change. That said , with due apologies [...]

funkygal commented on the diary post Reich’s case for reform only emboldens the 1% by GA_spoken.
Robert Reich had long been smoking the free trade crack pipe (he supported NAFTA). And has a fantasy that we AMreekans shouldn’t be making things anymore and getting our hands dirty, but instead do stuff like “symbolic analysis” (WTF is that?). But good to see him come out of the closet with his bearings unhinged.
