liberaldem commented on the blog post Dimon: Regulating Financial Firms So They Don’t Cause Massive Crises “Un-American”
In the interest of suggesting a relatively non-violent punishment for Dimon, might I humbly suggest that he be put in the stocks and actual tax-paying citizens be allowed to throw refuse at him non-stop?

liberaldem commented on the diary post Obama Advisors Feared a Coup If the Administration Prosecuted War Crimes by RogerShuler.
To Mr. Edley: You can “burble” or not all you want to about academic freedom, but that won’t mask the fact that John Yoo wrote some appalling opinions when he was one of Shrub’s hacks at DOJ.

Does anyone know whether Texas Nat’l Guard units that could be used for the fires are deployed overseas?
I’m truly sorry for everyone who is in harm’s way in Texas.

As an outsider, I’m curious-how did these people get elected? Were the other candidates so awful that LePage etal looked good?

liberaldem commented on the blog post Presidential Power Observed: Dems on Catfood Commission II Want Bigger Deficit Package
I understand your fear of the likes of Rick Perry or Michelle Bachmann anywhere near the White HOuse, but I don’t share your belief that Obama’s second term (unlikey) would be anything approaching a “joy”,unless you are speaking for the 1% who get most of the benefits of our woefully broken system.
Were you speaking tongue in cheek, perhaps?

We can start by asking all of our elected representatives, over, and over,and over why we are still issuing HB-1 visas. Keep pushing them to respond.

He’ll announce his support for the abolition of unions, reduction of the minimum wage to $.25/hour…..and a new government program contracting out the construction of poorhouses….

liberaldem commented on the blog post Cablegate Swings Open Forever: All US Cables Now Published by WikiLeaks
While the State Dept. and the Pentagon might talk about Wilileaks’ alleged disinterest in peoples’ lives, that is akin to the pot calling the kettle black. The only lives in which either body is interested are rich white ones.

Apparently for Yoo tenure + political connections are a perpetual”get out of jail” card.

I understand this. I just wonder whether any of Yoo’s students have ever considered that pursuant to the opinions that he authored that they, too, could be disappseared and tortured.

I don’t think they give out pills-they just search for anyone who’s willing to give up any integrity they might once have had.

liberaldem commented on the diary post Egg Freezing: Risks to Women and Children Unknown by RHRealityCheck.
Just my own opinion, but I think it’s past time to rein in the money-making assisted reproduction industry. And why, precisely, would one want to defeat the biological clock? How many people actually have the energy to bear and raise children once they are in their 50′s or 60′s? Let alone the fact that perhaps [...]

Chu is carrying the shit for the administration. If he disagreed with Obama, etal on this matter he’d say so and resign.

liberaldem commented on the diary post It’s Official: Clarence Thomas Is A Psychopath by jest.
I’d like to hear John Danforth’s thoughts on his dear friend Clarence. As I recall, the supposedly religious Mr. Danforth was front and center defending Clarence Thomas and pillorying Anita Hill during Thomas’ confirmation hearings.

liberaldem commented on the diary post Eric Cantor: “No Disaster Relief without Offsetting Cuts” by Bill Egnor.
As much as I dislike Eric Cantor’s politics, I”m personally hoping and praying that the greater D.C./No.Va./Md. area doesn’t get whomped by Irene-for one thing, I live here, and I sure as hell don’t want to see my community and neighbors suffer. I realize that for some posters here at FDL that great misery doesn’t [...]
