Nice work. Go for their throats and don't let go. This is the will of the (informed) people versus corporate America. If democracy has any chance, the people have to win.

I'm gonna take all three - in equal measure. I used to wonder what exactly George Carlin used to go on about with his HBO shows - "It's a club - and we ain't in it!" and "they just want us smart enough to do our jobs and no more". I no longer wonder, I know. They "care" more for (their vision of) the country/world than those who actually live in it.

You got a point. We need to keep shoving "The Party of No!" back in their faces and show the Dems that folks with teeth like Grayson can have a mass appeal.

How far off the mark am I in recalling that there was once a revolution about all this back in the C18th?

Maybe Lady Truth just needs more of a helping hand? I can't help but notice that the corps have got all these lobbyists and may think that they've got her bound and gagged. It can't be a co-incidence that Obama keeps on refering to the small businesses so much in his speeches? Sounds like he's out to circumvent the power of the corps.

Hopefully he'll feed on those who are totally bought by the Corps and sling their sorry asses out. With regards to the will of the people, I can't think of a term strong enough for the republicans or blue dogs who are letting US citizens suffer because they can't afford to access decent healthcare.

Limbaugh and Faux have got to be in cahoots. I bet they trade ideas for their campaigns of suppositions and lies. It's as if a sizeable chunk of America is scared of one black guy who happens to be in the White House. Now why would they have any legit reason to be scared???

I bet it was around even before then, too. And for the same reasons.

What would it take to change them? One of their nearest and dearest suddenly getting so sick that they're refused cover? It sickens me to see so many US citizens being duped by these evil, manipulative self-centred a-holes. In the meantime, I guess US exports in wool are booming - given all those sheep.

Sounds like the average American has a lot in common with the average Roman, and look what happened there! What I want to know is, why is the mainstream media backing FauxNews in the war with the White House? I remember Rick Sanchez of CNN calling Fox out for being liars not too long ago, so why the back peddling? If public opinion is being shaped by the Murdoch media so much, then there's another one-sided battle that needs more balance.

Yet those who say they want to help the citizenry are just branded "socialists" and the ignorant swallow it, everytime.
