    “At long last, , have you left no sense of decency?”

    “Strengthen” what is already solid. “Fix” what is not broken. Then, call it “Reform.”

    Word Games (as a Key)– with 99% of the planet’s lives on the (their) line.

    Obama Put Social Security on the Table

    “And now, we are maybe two ‘only a sliver’ PR cycles (‘heated rhetoric’) away from the next Change We Can Heave In.”

    From March, 2010:
    God Speaks to Palin (Without Notes on Hand)

    Palin: “Regarding the notes on my hand, and whether or not it revealed my true level of, uh, what’s that word (?) . . . intellect (!), at first, ‘I didn’t really have a good answer, as so often – is me’ (ya know, muttonhead, etc.).” “But then somebody sent me the other day, Isaiah 49:16. . . .” “Eureka! Obviously, God had to write on His hands, as well! ‘I’m like’ yoo-hoo and ya betcha, what darn tootin ‘good company!’” God (attempting to speak to her, for the first time): “Sarah, can you hear me? Sarah? Geez, not much going on in here. Oh well, I’ll just speak louder and louder. Sarah, the Bible is full of metaphorical and allegorical language. If I said I would write your name, as well as all the names of those who actually follow me, on my forehead – do you think it would be meant literally?” Palin: “I think God just spoke to me!” Friend: “What did He say?” Palin: “The Bible is literal, throughout. And, unlike 99% of others, I actually follow Him! He even uses Post-it notes!” God: “Note to self: Don’t get angry; think of it as trying to teach a moose. Sarah, you missed, and twisted, the entire message.” Palin: “He just spoke to me again!” Friend: “Really?” Palin: “Something like the Beatitudes were twisted as progressive messages – that we missed Jesus’ neo-conservative intent. We should look to Glenn Beck for an update!” God: “I don’t think I could get through to this one with a follow the bouncing ball teleprompter.”

    [Update: God: “The next time I send you back there, maybe you’ll get a life (with a clue)?”
    Sarah Palin: “Don’t Retreat, Instead–RELOAD!”
    God: “Alright – to be more clear: I was trying to Give you a Clue.”
    Sarah Palin: “Ya betcha (wink)!”
    God: If this one becomes president, I may scrap some long-term plans and just initiate the Second Coming.”]

    “[T]he administration is focused on ensuring future compliance, rather than on looking back.”

    “[W]e have not found any evidence at this point of systemic issues in the underlying legal or other documents that have been reviewed.”

    Repost:
    Remember how the Public Option transforme­d into “only a sliver”?
    Remember who put Social Security “on the table” with a “stacked” Deficit Commission­?

    “Obama Put Social Security on the Table” — a long time ago.
    The related decisions were already made — a long time ago.

    Same show. Old dance.

    WindHarps commented on the blog post Fiscal Commission Recommendations: VA Co-Pays, Top Tax Rate 23%

    2010-11-10 20:30:04View | Delete

    Repost from a response on HuffPost: In relation to narratives created by Fox/Koch Brothers, etc., and what was the continuing mindset of the remaining Bush II minority, President Obama appointed a biased Deficit Commission – during a Second Depression. At the same time, he “Put Social Security on the Table.” Then, the Deficit Commission’s (predetermined) recommendations were put off until after the midterms. Now, with a new House, Obama and the remaining Blue Dogs will seek even more of that (veil of) “Common Ground,” and “Compromise” – while the sacrificed hear further sermons on the sanctity of sacrificing.

    The 23rd Psalm (Updated by Palinittes)

    The world is mine to shepherd; I shall not want.
    It maketh me to lie down in green-inked pastures:
    It leadeth me beside filling coffers.
    It restoreth my gold:
    It leadeth me in the paths of richness for my name’ sake.

    Yea, though I cause valleys of death which shadow the poor,
    I will not fear their evil righteousness: For this art is with me;
    This rod and this staff, they comfort me.
    I preparest a table before me in the presence of starving enemies;
    I annointest my wells with oil; My reservoirs runneth over.

    Surely ruthlessness and vengeance shall follow all the days of my life,
    and I will dwell in the House of It forever.
