    holeybuybull commented on the diary post Thoughts on Careless or Irresponsible Use of the Term “Anti-Semite” by EdwardTeller.

    Do an internet search for Mithra. The “Jesus” figure is common to many religions that predate Christianity as is the concept of the Golden Rule.
    It’s all just part of a system to exercise control over the ignorant masses of “believers”.

    Dennis Kucinich is available since he lost his seat due to gerrymandering, but Obama would never nominate someone opposed to the MIC to be Secretary of War.

    He’s the 21st century version of Reagan and G.H.W. Bush’s adopted son.

    A principled individual who defines themselves as liberal, progressive, or populist would reject both corporatist choices and vote for Jill Stein.

    For anyone interested in history from a non-European/US perspective, Eduardo Galeano’s Open Veins of Latin America and the Memory of Fire trilogy are excellent.

    If Obama wins it will be a victory for the Regressives just like it was in 2008. Doesn’t really matter whether it’s team “D” or team “R”.

    Except that those possessed of an authoritarian mindset have voiced their support for the LOTE in greater numbers, thus displaying their abject cowardice.

    Well it certainly won’t be any of the neoliberal women of the Obama administration like HRC, Victoria Nuland, Janet Napolitano, Susan Rice, etc.

    Wendy Gramm, wife of Phil Gramm, who was instrumental in deregulating the financial industry during the Clinton administration. Largely responsible for crafting the Commodities Futures Modernization Act and its companion piece the Financial Services modernization Act. She’s the antithesis of Brooksley Born.

    Looks like James Cameron’s “Dark Angel” TV program is finally becoming a reality in Seattle. It featured killer drones with facial recognition software. It didn’t even require the EMP incident to make it happen.

    Bravo! The majority of US citizens won’t appreciate your actions, but the few who are not authoritarians applaud you.

    I just don’t think Obama is “running scared”, but he must keep lying or else he’ll disappear. He’s set for life whether he wins or loses, and realistically he can accrue more wealth at a faster pace if Romney wins the election. Bill Clinton now enjoys an estimated net worth of $200 Million, the majority of which was accumulated after his time in office.

    Oh goody! Just another Obama campaign promise that won’t be kept if he wins.

    Sociopaths don’t know the meaning of shame and have no capacity to experience it.

    There is nothing quite so dangerous as a sociopath ascending to the presidency with the rhetoric of a populist Democrat.

    If Obama was an animal other than human, he’d be a pander bear.

    (Please forgive me for this remark. I couldn’t help myself.)

    Too bad your partisanship blinds you to the fact that these clowns serve the same interests, and they’re not there to improve your life, only their own and their masters, at your expense. You’ll only have yourself to blame when you are droned or disappeared. Your masters appreciate your support.

    The trouble with our system is that our politicians, who are in reality public servants, morph into the puppets of private interests once they’re elected. The rhetoric they employ is populist while their actions are corporatist.

    Bravo! It’s always depressing to see creative people cast their lot with corporatist hacks. Just look at the list of Obama supporters infesting Hollywood, but then our politicians are no more than actors in the Kabuki Theatre that passes for our government.
