Yes, well there's a lot left to be (5.00 / 3) (#5)

desired in that diary.
Not the least of which is leaving a whole lot of relevant information from the law he cites that limits the extent to which that loop hole he thinks he found can be used. There is a section called "Appointment of receiver required if other action fails to restore capital" addressing his "loop hole" in which a time limit is given in trying alternative methods of stabilizing the banks. He conveniently left that part out and ranted about people being ignorant - cruel trickery. That's why I click on links.


then this:

The cultists are not my target. (5.00 / 3) (#39)

It is their prey that I hope to protect.
I don't actually think I know any more than he does, but I do know that the answers are not as simple as he makes them out to be. It is not fair to people to play the games he does with deflection and obfuscation.

Also, if this country really is on the precipice of total economic collapse, the fact that there are no laws to guide us - if there are none - a debatable point - does NOT mean we can't take action - we don't just have to throw up our hands and say "Oh no laws! Just gotta live with it!" That's ridiculous and it is not what the Founding Fathers intended at all when they created our government. We are supposed to be an agile and innovative body, not lead-footed fools carried by the fates.

then this:

and in purely political terms (5.00 / 2) (#44)

my great fear is that by coddling the miscreants, obama will fail to repair enough of the damage. and then the republicans might actually have a chance of coming back, in the next election cycles.
the cultists don't realize it, but their inability to think critically and even slightly objectively hurts obama- and us.


and don't miss this part.......

Yes. (5.00 / 2) (#10)

Not unlike Freepers.
I used to visit the great orange ghetto on a pretty regular basis. Once the Hallelujah chorus started during the primaries and anyone singing a different tune was treated like a devil, I sort of withdrew and never much went back. Until today.

Is it my imagination or is that place now very much the same sort of intolerant of dissent (or even uncomfortable, inconvenient facts) place as is The Free Republic? I read through the Moyers thread about his interview with WK Black and I quickly lost count of the insults and "STFU" comments directed at anyone who dared to think that there might actually be some problem with Geithner, Summers and (Dog forbid!) Obama on this whole bailout the rich deal.

Insults aimed at Moyers, at William Black, at anyone who was troubled by what they heard in that interview...well...it's a pretty ugly place and it isn't because of the shade of orange. It was like looking into a some weirdly distorted version of reality where Bushbots had morphed into Democrats and taken up the cause of their new Maximum Leader. Whatever else there was among those who seem to be forming the mob, abundant logical thought was not on the list. Geez...
