I wonder if Sen. Warren will have sufficient respect for the comity and institutional prerogatives blah blah blah that intent-eviscerating, fingerprint and DNA-free language will surface during the markups.
Also too, whether her bill will be accorded the flattery of a filibuster.

MaryCh commented on the blog post Standard & Poor’s Changes Its Tune On Business Practices For Legal Defense
Fascinating to see old, small scale concepts like puffery (my law school prof characterized it as an expected, allowable level of exaggerating the virtues of a product in a sales transaction) applied to numbers with two or three commas. And entirely consistent with what Matt Taibbi is reporting in the latest Rolling Stone.

MaryCh commented on the blog post Actually Charlie Cook, Young People Want to Protect Social Security
At the risk of sounding like a DFH nerd or worse, maybe America’s political analysis equation doesn’t include an intergenerational variable, or defaults to a near zero coefficient.
Precedent: Seniors didn’t go for Bush’s abandon-the-youngers appeal in his SS privatization push?

Sad news. I hadn’t even heard of him before clicking the link, but am looking forward to reading a guy who thinks like this…
These days, Banks flaunts his political views with a FTT (Fuck the Tories ) T-shirt. But a courteous side was shown in his statement that the treatment he had received from the NHS in Scotland had been “exemplary, and the standard of care deeply impressive. We’re all just sorry the outcome hasn’t been more cheerful.”

Belated thank you for the Anthony – Lou Reed video.
Guess it’s worthwhile paying attention to your Friday music recs after your Thursday night antidote to the previous seven day’s signs of impending doom.
