    kafka commented on the blog post Weiner is Back

    2013-05-22 08:38:41View | Delete

    He’s addicted to the same things as the rest of our narcissistic political class: publicity, attention, headlines, etc. Public service is an inconvenient afterthought.

    Guess Ronnie Raygun isn’t Obama’s hero after all. Richard Nixon is.

    The elites know how to turn everything into a weapon against us. Support the “Gang of 8″ Immigration Reform Bill? Be careful what you wish for. It contains a provision to establish a biometric data base of practically all adults in the US. Read about it here (and savor that George Carlin quote):

    kafka commented on the blog post The Roundup for May 10, 2013

    2013-05-10 20:02:34View | Delete

    Congress has refused to fund setting up the Affordable Care Act, so Health & Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sibelius “has gone hat in hand to health industry executives” begging them to chip in

    And I’m sure those executives will be more than happy to invest chip in after lengthy negotaitions with Sibelius.

    2013-05-10 07:57:23View | Delete

    The same bots that went gaga over TheFirstBlackPrez are moving on to the next big thing, TheFirstFemPrez. Because, don’t ya know, it’s going to be different this time. Clueless doesn’t begin to describe idiot US voters.

    kafka commented on the blog post State Department Demands Takedown Of 3D Printable Gun Files

    2013-05-10 07:18:50View | Delete

    State power is growing weaker in the face of decentralizing technologies and all the lawsuits in the world won’t change that fact

    Spot on. And of course this means our Fatherland Security Schutzstaffel will become ever more oppressive and vile as it clings to its power.

    kafka commented on the blog post Charlie Crist’s Latest Step in His Political Transformation: Endorsing Marriage Equality

    2013-05-09 14:21:44View | Delete

    This is just the latest sign Crist might be preparing for a statewide run. There is a good chance Crist will run for governor again next year as a Democrat

    Or next year as an independent. Or next year as a GOPer. Or next year as whatever label gives this attention whore the best shot. His flexibility mirrors his lack of any convictions. FL voters see through him.

    kafka commented on the blog post Colleges Pushing Poor Students Into Debt To Give Aid To Rich Ones

    2013-05-09 11:14:28View | Delete

    I find it hilarious that young people have a $$$ trillion in student debt, but the same politicians who engineered this fiasco are now telling us we have a shortage of skilled labor.

    kafka commented on the blog post MA Sen: Two Polls Show Ed Markey With a Comfortable Lead

    2013-05-09 10:24:27View | Delete

    Yeah, let’s all tie ourselves in knots over another GOP vs. Dem dustup. Meanwhile the crony capitalist empire doesn’t give a sh*t. They know they can pimp out a Democrat just as easily as a GOPer.

    Oh come on pal. The Fed’s isn’t there to “protect the citizens of this country”

    kafka commented on the diary post Larry Summers: The Intellectual as Courtier by masaccio.

    2013-05-08 15:26:30View | Delete

    I saw that pondscum on Charlie Rose recently. Rose asked him whether he favored a single payer system. Guess what he said.

    The New Deal Democratic party of FDR, Truman, JFK, would have kicked Summers in the nuts, but now we have wimps like Reid, Pelosi, Schumer….

    kafka commented on the diary post Death Penalty Dying Out by David Swanson.

    2013-05-08 13:27:25View | Delete

    OTOH, the 3 Castro amigos may bring it back to life:

    http://news.yahoo.com/authorities-tried-earlier-visit-house-where-ohio-women-033825027.html

    Of course I don’t favor the death penalty even for these slimeballs. They should have their wrists handcuffed to their ankles, “Child Molester” signs tattooed on their backs, and then sent to the slammer.

    kafka commented on the blog post The Insanity of What Hospitals Charge and the Solution No One is Talking About

    2013-05-08 10:40:56View | Delete

    Amazingly, despite this clear proof of a problem and many other countries providing decades long examples of how to easily fix it, there is still basically no mention of all-payer today

    Yeah, what an oversight / s

    kafka commented on the blog post What Mark Sanford’s Victory Says About Modern Politics

    2013-05-08 08:02:06View | Delete

    GOPers (Sanford, Vitter…) preach “Family Values” while porking younger women on the side.

    Democrats (Edwards, Spitzer…) preach feminism while porking younger women on the side.

    Behold! Your “2 party” system heroes hard at work.

    2013-05-08 07:57:10View | Delete

    Yeah, Democrats really care about small business (at least when they’re not handing over $$$ billions to their bankster pimps on Wall Street).

    Oh, I get it. Democrats are too cowardly to actually make the rich pay more taxes to fund government, so it’s OK if they get it from the little people instead.

    And the Internet sales tax will cost US money at a time of declining incomes and benefits. Nice job siding with the politicians rather than the people.

    The 9/11 Reichstag fire just keeps giving and giving to the .01% and their dreams of a fascist crony capitalist state. And their Fuehrer Obama is only too happy to help.
