The Biggest Loser
Posted on September 17, 2013

Both political parties have their own reasons for shutting down the government, so it should come as no surprise when the lights go off on October 1st.

The Teabaggers who continue to manipulate House Speaker John Boehner made it clear to Mr. Merlot that they would have no part of any compromise bill that didn’t include another fruitless attempt to de-fund the Affordable Health Care Act.

The Democrats, however, are willing to stand their ground and might welcome a shutdown – despite the negative consequences – because they’re banking on the fact that the public would place the blame where it belongs: on the Republicans.

President Obama isn’t a happy camper these days. He was dealt a serious blow when Larry Summers, his pick to replace exiting Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, withdrew his nomination in the face of overwhelming opposition from liberal Democrats and women’s advocacy groups.

As Clinton’s former Treasury Secretary, Summers was responsible for allowing bank deregulation that played a major role in creating our current economic crisis. His unpopularity with women dates back to his days as president of Harvard University, where he hypothesized that women were underrepresented in the technological industries because of their inherent weaker abilities in math and science.

Pretty dumb comment for a smart guy.

The Business insider has more, under the fantastic headline “Inside The GOP Civil War That Could Turn Into A Debt Ceiling Or Government Shutdown Disaster”

A kamikaze mission.

That’s how the conservative editorial board of The Wall Street Journal described the current budget strategy floated by a number of conservatives in Congress: tying provisions to defund the Affordable Care Act to a “must-pass” bill like the continuing resolution to keep the government open past Sept. 30 or the debt ceiling increase that may be needed by late October.

“Kamikaze missions rarely turn out well, least of all for the pilots,” the WSJ editorial board wrote. One House GOP aide called it a “fantastical” plot with no real end game.

And as always, the biggest losers are the American people who will suffer if/when the doors are locked on October 1st.

Speaking of shutdowns (!) We are facing a funding crisis of our own. More Progressive stations are leaving the format, and advertisers are pulling out as a result, which is one reason we are expanding into video – to reach a new audience and serve our listeners who can no longer hear us on the radio.

(And many thanks, Truthseekers, for helping us with our Kickstarter campaign).

We are sure that Malloy:Uncensored will be a great success and we are excited to get started! Until that takes off, however, we are depending on our Truthseekers to support the program with your paypal donations, sponsorship hours, and podcast subscriptions. We will not give up the fight, but truly need you to help us keep it lit.

With your help, we can kill the myth that progressive talk is irrelevant or unimportant. Thank you for all that you do, Truthseekers. You are the most important element of this program!

And help us Kickstart the Malloy Video Revolution, if you can! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/50094194/the-mike-malloy-video-show Mike's kickstarter contributions is over at $53,000!
