Jul 2013

just to try to save the 2012 mid terms, boy that worked out well! It's drilling as usual, no wait, it's more drilling than usual. Obama should have been the one saying, "Drill Baby, drill!" Obama has been a great Corpratist leader! He throws us some bones but gives the 1% the meat! Say all you want, but he and all the other corrupt Democrats and Republicans answer to the 1% and the corporations. Eric Holder has been great for business so why shouldn't he stick around. Look at the cabinet, bunch of great altruistic corporate types for sure!
I am disgusted with the lot of them! It is sad when you can only name a few real leaders, Elizebeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and Alan Greyson. Maybe 1 or 2 more, but that s it!
Defend Obama all you want, lesser of 2 evils and all of that I don't care. We need publicly funded elections which means we would have to vote out all of the old white guys. I wonder when people will finally realize that our system of legal bribery with campaign donations has given control of our government over to business and the very rich? Sounds crazy that ambitious people would be influenced by the money that keeps them in office, I know! I guess that makes me a crazy conspiracy theorist huh?
