    liberalcrank commented on the diary post Ask Obama To Investigate Clarence Thomas by FeetToDaFire.

    You do understand that you’re asking one Uncle Tom to investigate a fellow Uncle Tom….

    Scalia is a small-minded, petty man whose personal prejudices infect his thinking. Of course, he’s also “pro-life”, but that only applies to zygotes and fetuses……

    True dat. Little Timmeh is just worried about his bankster buddies.

    That’s an excellent question. Votes do have consequences. How bad could the alternative to Rick Scott have been?

    Watching the DN livestream and listening to the Amnesty International guy, who asks why the U.S. does this: It’s heartbreakingly simple:Americans like to kill. We are a bloodthirsty, violent society. We especially like killing people with darker and/or different skin colors.

    As for the story in the Morning Call about the conditions in Amazon’s Allentown warehouse, how do people think that Amazon.com can offer merchandise as cheaply as they do? Amazon.com is simply the online version of Walmart. Jeff Bezos is Sam Walton with better PR.

    liberalcrank commented on the diary post Do You Have to Work for Peter G. Peterson to Be Cited on Budget Issues in the Washington Post? by Dean Baker.

    2011-09-20 18:17:41View | Delete

    The younger generation of the Graham family now running the paper apparently are either neoliberals or neocons.

    In addition, the WaPo makes most of its profits from its “educational” component-Kaplan Testing.

    liberalcrank commented on the blog post Nikki Haley Refuses to Let Facts Get in the Way of Policy

    2011-09-20 18:14:18View | Delete

    Nikki Haley knows that she can repeat this lie because it appeals to the prejudices of the people who support her.

    liberalcrank commented on the diary post Is the GOP/Media Complex Using Silly Sex Smears to Scare Schneiderman, Other AGs from Probing Bank Crimes? by Phoenix Woman.

    2011-09-18 11:11:14View | Delete

    And they will keep using this sleazy crap because too many Americans still believe that an individual’s private life is fair game and, more importantly, germane to how they do their job.

    RE: Silvio Berlusconi-perhaps there really is a “fembot” factory somewhere in Italia, where those fetching velina are manufactured, right down to the ginormous boobage and botoxed, bee-stung lips….

    liberalcrank commented on the diary post Kathleen Parker has no common sense by EveningStarNM.

    2011-09-17 19:32:22View | Delete

    Kathleen Parker’s column on the WaPo OpEd page is a waste of space, and another indication of how low that paper has sunk in recent years.

    liberalcrank commented on the blog post Boehner Rejects Jobs Bill, Advances Deregulatory, Anti-Tax Agenda

    2011-09-15 16:23:54View | Delete

    And Boehner’ golfing buddy, the Great Capitulator has probably already told his staff to find more regulations to gut.

    Thanks for the update. I’m glad that this woman will be back in her home.

    As much as I dislike the banksters, it is unconscionable that this man exploited his mother for his own selfish purposes.

    liberalcrank commented on the diary post Siegelman: What Happened to Obama’s Moral Compass? by RogerShuler.

    2011-09-14 16:39:55View | Delete

    Or maybe, just maybe, Obama never was the person we thought he was. Maybe we longed a little too desperately for a leader that we could believe in, a leader who would represent the 80%. Maybe we just saw what was never there. Liz, you nailed it. I saw what I wanted to see, like [...]

    liberalcrank commented on the blog post Everything’s Coming Up Galveston: Conservatives Push Private Account Plan from Texas Community

    2011-09-14 16:35:29View | Delete

    This kind of story is one of the main reasons I have problems with the libertarian movement. They seem to believe that people, markets, governments will always act rationally. Well, we all know how well that works, don’t we?

    liberalcrank commented on the blog post More Trial Balloons on Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security Cuts from Obama

    2011-09-14 16:26:54View | Delete

    Obama does heartily dislike and fear confrontation, but I’ve come to believe that he genuinely believes in gutting Social Security, Medicare, and screwing the majority of Americans. Why else would he continually fold and give in?

    Good to know another State AG has some principles and some backbone….now, if we could perhaps implant both in the White House?
    Just kidding!
