    True.

    Good column, and true. The corporate mil.indust. plutocracy keeps moving the Overton Window to the right, with their D and R puppets.

    Well said! x2! except that I would say Pres. Obama is unwilling, not unable (unless he is under a big, nefarious threat of some kind, which I doubt).

    All those who believe that the Bible is the literal word of God are below reason, members of a mythic-membership premodern group-remnants of the Medieval period.

    2011-10-14 19:16:27View | Delete

    Geithner’s just blowing smoke, and he knows it. He’s “good at it (b.s.)”, meaning that he conforms to the b.s.-ese of the Beltway scribes; he was hired (either consciously or subconsciously) for it.

    Keep being blatant, J. It is the arrogance of the emperor without de clothing – more people are catching on.

    CNN is of course not even covering this.

    2011-09-18 12:31:15View | Delete

    IOW – Obama is mostly neoliberal and neoconservative, two ideologies that are immoral in their nature: their results are death and suffering for many; greedy squalor (and a pseudo-immortality project/death-denial) – see the book “The Atman Project” by Ken Wilber (moral and otherwise) for/by the top 1%.

    2011-09-17 18:49:53View | Delete

    And, on a bigger scale, consider this very strong op-ed at truth-out – Obama Co-Opts the Labor Movement –
    stating that Obama’s original $447 was paltry to begin with.

    He’s openly refelecting the corporate plutocray’s view that liberal and progressive economists don’t matter, period. They’re sound and fury to be ignored by the power elite.

    2011-08-21 12:43:51View | Delete

    The (“legacy??) corporate conventional wisdom establishment serving the corporate plutocracy‘s (owned, bought) media needs a straw liberal/progressive, for one reason, among others imo, to prevent air and attention time to a genuine one. Thus the c.p. moves the Overton Window further to the right.

    Read or watch Jim Hightower on Perry. He exposes what a total corporatist lackey he is, among other things.

    He was on Lawrence O’Donnell tonight – clip

    2011-08-15 16:55:36View | Delete

    I agree with your essay, Jane. Transpartisanship could be defined as coming together for the public good, transcending divisions on a higher level of justice and truth. It might only work now in transparency and accountability issues, but it’s an important tool and concept. Ethnocentricity (including covert and overt racism) and division are the hallmarks of the conservatives, and FAKED liberalism and economic equality ideals are the ones of the corporatist neoliberals.

    That’s just what the Koch Bros., Karl Rove, and the rest of the corporate plutocracy want you to do!
