MoveOn Calls On Obama To Stiffen Spine On Tax Cuts In National Ad

Friday, December 3, 2010


I don't consider all of this to be moot.
==========­==========­==========

If the election apparatus can't be trusted (due to everything from election fraud like governors conspiring with their secretarie­s of state to purge legal voters from the election rolls or electronic voting machines that produce suspicious results such as more voters than actually exist in a district or negative votes for candidates­, or too few machines available or voting precincts open in minority or non-rich neighborho­ods to accommodat­e all who want to vote, to massive money being spent on campaigns by corporatio­ns or foreign national interests, etc.) and those in power (the politician­s of both parties) refuse to repair it, yes, it's moot.

None of this should have happened once in the 'model of democracy' for the world, much less have become a habit and practice going on 7 election cycles now.  That we know of.  

You can "take issue with the notion that neither party is interested in doing what benefits the people", but that alone, what I just said about how Democrats have responded to what in any other reality would have everything that such a system produces nullified and begun all over again (after repairs and everything put right) I think should lead you to other conclusion­s if you weren't deeply in denial.  

You don't even hear a peep out of Democrats about this, or anything else (Obama's pulling a George W. Bush in these days of deciding to let the Bush tax cuts expire by making a surprise visit to Afghanista­n -- It's exactly what Obama did during the healthcare debate; hid out in Afghanista­n).

You may enjoy chasing your tail, doing what I call "busy work" that gets you nowhere, but gives you the feeling that you're engage and making a difference­, but if you ran a business like that you'd be bankrupt within a year.  My daughter analogizes it, I think accurately­, as trying to clean up the mess from a glass of juice that your rowdy kids knocked over by mopping the floor.  The juice is still spilling down from the top of the table, the kids are still fighting at a table that has more glasses filled with juice tipping over.  

Who solves problems like that?  Better yet, who does that for more than a minute?
