TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post So What Is Our End Game in Syria?
I have said more than once that it was unfortunate that the fourth plane crashed in Pennsylvania instead of into the Capital Building.
Congratulations for uttering the most retarded statement I have seen in years of following FDL.

You may be paying for a small part of it, but you’re not making the decisions. Unless you agree with what the state is doing, stop acting like we’re all sitting around the living room trying to decide all kumbayalike what is best for America.

Can we put a cork in this “our” and “we” horseshit? Unless you support invading other countries this is being done by Them. Stop identifying with the imperialists and pretending that some kind of consensus us possible. It’s just naive and pathetic.

TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post U.S. To Increase Aid To Al-Qaeda Linked Rebels In Syria
Even the underlying report DS cites doesn’t say the Syrian govt used these weapons, it just says the USG alleges this. So this is just more sloppy commentary by DS. But of course the larger point is that Obama has morphed into a combination of GW Bush and John McCain. And with the collapse of the Democrats as a viable opposition, we now live in a one party state run by generals spying on everyone.

TasteofFreedom commented on the diary post LIPA Squared by Cynthia Kouril.
If the bonds were secured by sales tax or revenue from rates, you could get to AAA. For instance the Nassau County Interim Finance Authority has a AAA because of sales tax securing. The problem is that this is not being spelled out. Taxpayers or ratepayers could be on the hook for a bailout. This [...]

Posting it without comment or analysis is just a form of journalistic stenography. Taksim Platform‘s views are also part of the story, but they don’t make an appearance.

Do you work for the Turkish embassy or do you just give it away for free?

TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post The Filibuster Should Be Traded for Eliminating Lifetime Judicial Appointments
Congratulations. You’ve come up with the dumbest idea of the week. Combining the two measures that would guarantee right wing domination of the judiciary for generations. If you think the right dominates the judiciary now, you’d really find out what that means if the liberals were purged and the Tea Party loonies had a free hand to legislate from the bench. Apart from the problem that it would politicize the bench more than you could ever imagine.

TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post Think Progress Shows Stunning Hypocrisy On Government Spying
Right on DS. The fact that you’re getting grief even on this list for pointing out CAP’s hypocrisy shows that the problem of the spinelessness of the left goes a lot deeper than the opportunists at CAP.

Facts wrong: 501c3s do not have to make their donors public. You do not know what you’re talking about.

TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post Antibiotic Resistance Represents “Catastrophic Threat”
Great idea. Let’s price all the poor people who show up in emergency rooms out of antibiotics, or price them into taking half a dose of antibiotics, thereby further propagating MRSA. That would be a brilliant epidemiological strategy.

80% of antibiotics are used in industrial farming to fatten up pigs and chickens. This is the real issue. See this.

We need more than lobbying reform. We need advocates unwilling to roll over for the Obama administration like the Veal Pen gun control groups have done.

TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post North Korea Claims lt Will Launch A Pre-Emptive Nuclear Attack On America
Now you’re being dishonest. You yourself said it was “grounds for military action.” Please. You’re foundering around. As for “we need to be focused,” I assure you the USG is focused, but not on the latest bombastic nonsense emanating from Pyongyang. Frankly it’s you who need some focus.

TasteofFreedom commented on the blog post North Korea Claims lt Will Launch A Pre-Emptive Nuclear Attack On America
Completely agree. Duly noted too that we still have no response from DSWright regarding what to do. The only conclusion: this is just mindless bellicosity chasing a headline. FDL trending downward.

Let’s not forget the other rats that are supporting this , including creepy Ed Rendell, billionaire Mike Bloomberg and his money handler Rattner the rat, never-met-a-banker-I didn’t-like Alice Rivlin, Tony the bounder Villaraigosa, Tim not-Wirth much. You can bet they’re not going to be making $16K when they’re 95 years old, unless they tax shelter their loot [...]

TasteofFreedom commented on the diary post Robert Samuelson’s Psychological Problems by Dean Baker.
The U.S. _is_ suffering from a psychological problem: People like Samuelson are psychologically incapable of seeing there’s a demand problem, because that would create unbearable cognitive dissonance in their neoliberal noggins. Too bad there isn’t a pill for that.
