"Mitt Romney said he doesn't really care about poor people. Now he's backtracking,
saying he connects with poor people. Yeah, the same way Tom Brady connects with Wes Welke.”

Robert Reich vs Obama
Link
It has been said there is no high ground in American politics since any politician who claims it
is likely to be gunned down by those firing from the trenches. That's how the Obama team justifies
endorsing a super PAC that can raise and spend unlimited sums for his campaign.
Baloney. Good ends don't justify corrupt means.
What I'm hearing is "Why win when you can lose with honor, instead?"
That's how most Democrats run most campaigns.
Romney's friends on Wall Street have the deepest pockets in America.
His super PAC got $18 million from just 200 donors in the second half of last year.
"With so much at stake" wrote Obama campaign manager Jim Messina,
Obama couldn't "unilaterally disarm."
But would refusing to be corrupted this way really amount to unilateral disarmament?
To the contrary, I think it would have given the President a rallying cry that nearly all Americans
would get behind: "More of the nation's wealth and political power is now in the hands of fewer
people and large corporations than since the era of the robber barons of the Gilded Age. I will not
allow our democracy to be corrupted by this! I will fight to take back our government!"
Yeah, a great speech is always better than having a $500M campaign war chest.
You just said Romney was averaging $90K from each Fat Cat and you want Obama
to fight back with whatever nickles and dimes he can get from the poorest Americans?
That's either proof that you're crazy or proof you're a Democrat, suggesting
Obama bring a smile and a nice speech to this everybody-has-an-Uzi fight.
Small donations would have flooded the Obama campaign, overwhelming Romney's billionaire super PACs.
The people would have been given a chance to be heard.
Sure, and the victory ball would be catered by leprachauns, angels and unicorns.
Like most Democrats, Reich means well but he's not living in the real world.
And Reich is another one who stabbed his president in the back to get Obama elected,
and now he's turned into another David Sirota, (not a compliment.)

McCain: Obama should help Syrians
Now & then McCain gets one right
Link
John McCain says Obama should find ways to help the Syrian people without putting American boots on the ground.
McCain said there are several options available, ranging from medical care and technical assistance to safe havens for refugees of the violence.
He says the Syrian government is killing its own people, and it's an international outrage.
The often crazy man, in a rare lucid moment, says "it's time we acted on behalf of the people who are being slaughtered."
I agree.
For five days, Assad has been on "a medieval murder spree."
They say he's targeting hospitals and anyone who helps the wounded.
When are we going to step in and explain things to him?
"Every hour bring news of more atrocities."
-- CNN's John King

Subject: Why stand by and do nothing while innocent people die?
Ain't no oil in Syria, Bart.
Nothing worth killing for.
Now, Iran...THEY got some oil. Iraq...Libya...
Egypt and Tunisia were on their own when this Arab Spring Thing got
started--remember?
No help from anyone else.
The idea was never even brought up until it was time to get rid of
Qaddafi, in Libya.
Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait...they all play
nice with the West.
They've squelched THEIR Arab Springs very quietly, very quickly before
you or Obama could
even be asked for help. Saudi Arabia? Another Iraq, except with
religious insanity--but a steady
'friendly' flow of oil, so there's no 'problem'. Not for us, not for
them--if you don't look too closely.
Oil. Money. It's the answer, every time.
Daddy-O
Obama doesn't need oil to do the right thing.
I get that he's hesitant to step in, but what's worth watching
IF we're going to intervene, why not do it now?
Why wait until summer when another 20,000 innocents have died?
I love it when Neocons attack American icons.

The intense media debate over the White House push to require all insurance plans to cover contraception
is barely 48 hours old. And already some Democrats are bailing on President Obama.
Just like Republicans, Democrats have mixed opinions on choice in their caucus. And pro-life Democrats like
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) have taken a line on the new rule — opposition and concern — in keeping with their views.
But on Wednesday, pro-choice Democrats started coming out in opposition to the new White House edict
that the insurance rules follow the example of 28 states and include religious-run health plans at large institutions
like hospitals and universities. Former Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine — the past chair of the DNC and now a candidate
for U.S. Senate — told a Virginia radio show that he’s opposed to the new rules. Rep. John Larson (CT), a member
of the House Democratic leadership with 100% voting score from NARAL, released a letter Wednesday in which
he also split with the White House on the contraception rules.
It’s easy to see this as very strange, considering polling that shows an overwhelming number of Americans —
including most Catholics — support the White House move, and the idea of increasing access to contraception.
Of course, those are national polls, and some strategists wonder if the House GOP has calculated this issue
could hit Dems where it hurts: in “blue dog” swing seats with high concentrations of more religious voters.
If Catholics don't care, who's doing the fighting?
How many Catholic families do you know with 12 kids?
I'll bet the answer is zero.
BTW, Santorum is crazy - even for a Catholic.
If he wins, he'll try to make birth controll illegal.
You young gals ready to have a dozen kids under President Santorum?
Quotes
"Gingrich didn’t campaign in Colorado, Missouri, and Minnesota. But he’s vowed
to stay in the race until the Republican convention. However, Newt doesn’t have
a great track record as far as sticking to his vows....”
-- Jimmy Kimmel
How can Newt claim to be a man of faith when he changed religions for wife #3?
And why was it OK for her to screw Newt as a Protestant,
but he had to change to Catholic to be her temporary husband?
We see it again and again and again. People claim they're religious,
but they'll throw it all away for a piece of ass.

Subject: Realists have rights, too
In
response to the assertion of the Catholic Church, the Church of Reality
today reasserts the rights
of it's members to have access to contraception and abortions services
as a religious right. In our religion
every individual owns their own life and are wring their own individual
life stories and therefore have a
religious right to self determination.
Our view is that the religious rights of the patient come before the
religious rights of the doctors or the
institution that owns the hospital. For example, we would not allow a
Jewish or Seventh Day Adventist-owned
hospital to close their emergency room on Saturday because of the
Sabbath. We would not allow a Jehovah's
Witness hospital to deny a patient a blood transfusion because it's
against the hospital's religion.
Why
then would we deny a woman who has been violently raped emergency
contraception
so that she doesn't become pregnant by her attacker because the
Catholics don't like birth control?

According to you, Obama haters say things like,
"I really hate that African-American in the White House."
Have you ever met a racist Republican?
I have - I live among them and I know how they f-ing talk
and they NEVER say "African American." NEVER.
What I do is tell the truth and list the facts.

Ronald Reagan was The Great Communicator. Lyndon Johnson had his Great Society.
Obama’s presidency is moving toward greatness, as well, but not in a good way. At seemingly
every turn, Obama has made sure that major crimes are met not with justice but with immunity.
Obama has conferred so much immunity on so many different groups that he has earned the title
“The Great Vaccinator”
Even before becoming President, Obama began offering immunity wherever justice was demanded.
Once he had the Democratic nomination in his pocket, Obama abandoned the principled stand he took
during the primaries (when he said he would filibuster any bill with retroactive immunity and would
vote against it) and voted along with all Senate Republicans for cloture and then in favor of the bill that
conferred retroactive immunity on the telecommunications companies that illegally wiretapped citizens
without warrants.
The other major scandal from which the country was reeling as Obama took office was the meltdown
of the economy caused by banksters. When the market collapsed, the accompanying stock market crash
resulted in catastrophic losses for millions of Americans who saw their savings lose about half their value
in just a few weeks. Coupled with this stock market collapse was a collapse in the housing market, leading
to millions of Americans now owing more for their homes than they are worth.
There was reason to hope that Obama would take action to right this huge wrong but Obama made sure
that no prominent bansters ever faced criminal charges.
And he's going to win re-election so he will continue his "look forward" strategy for most crimes
but poker players and marijuana users will continue to he hunted by Obama's Justice Department.
If you steal hundreds of billions of dollars, your punishment is to give some of the money back.
If you get caught with a joint or a deck of cards, it's goodbye to the Brixton sun.

J C Penney sticks with Ellen
Religio-haters wanted her fired as a spokesman
Though she claims not to pay attention
to assholes who hate for no reaason, Ellen DeGeneres
nonetheless has addressed an anti-gay organization's plea to have her
fired as the new spokesperson for JC Penney.
On an episode of her show today, DeGeneres speaks about the online
boycott launched by OneMillionMoms.com,
a division of the American Handjob Association, who have pressed
Penney's to replace Ellen because she's gay.
The other day Howard
Stern said, "I
don't like Ellen, I think she's boring and not funny - but I'll
stand
with her on this because Christ, it's 2012 and we're still hating on
gays? If Penneys caves in,
(He was getting pretty worked
up by this time) I'll ask every
listener I have to boycott them."
Obama's Mortgage Settlement
His first step is always to surrender
Link
We've now set a price for forgeries and fabricating documents. It's $2000 per loan.
This is a rounding error compared to the chain of title problem these systematic practices
were designed to circumvent. The cost is also trivial in comparison to the average loan,
which is roughly $180k, so the settlement represents about 1% of loan balances.
It is less than the price of the title insurance that banks failed to get when they transferred
the loans to the trust. It is a fraction of the cost of the legal expenses when foreclosures
are challenged. It's a great deal for the banks because no one is at any of the servicers
going to jail for forgery and the banks have set the upper bound of the cost of riding
roughshod over 300 years of real estate law.
Wall Street and the banksters will continue to screw us because there's no reason not to
.
They know if they get caught, the government will say
"Shame on you - pay back 1% of what you stole" and they get to keep
the other 99% so where's the incentive to not steal more billions?

Hi, Bart,
Not everything has to be political to be interesting. This is an interesting talk by Jack Horner
of the Montana State University Museum of the Rockies. Jack was the expert consulting on
the Jurassic Park movies. Anyway, I think this is worth 18.5 minutes of your time for the
educational and amusement factor. For some reason, Jack reminded me of you—insightful,
unpretentious and funny. If you have any little kids in your life, this will be something you
can use to blow their minds.
Best,
