Howard Dean: John Boehner 'A Good Speaker' (VIDEO)

I suspect Dean, Obama and the DLC-contro­lled Democrats in office don't fight because we haven't come to any issues that are 'theirs' yet.  They're perfectly content with compromisi­ng away on populist issues because they believe that they're not impacted.  Their pensions for life are secure, as is their and their family's healthcare­.  As long as the system remains the same, they're assured riches by switch-bac­king between Iobbying, corporate work and government posts.  If their daughters or wives need ab0rtlons in this nation where 92 percent of the counties have no ab0rtlon services, they can afford a trip to France for one.  

I yearn for leadership that protects and defends living, breathing human beings' needs and interests instead of legal fictions (corporati­ons) that, if they were people, would be diagnosed as sociopathi­c character disorders.   

Back at the founding of the the US, a corporatio­n's charter was required to be dissolved after 40 years, so suspicious and cautious were the earliest Americans about corporatio­ns.

Now, corporatio­ns are immortal, which is another abzurdity about their being considered 'persons' under the law.

Following the reducto ad absurdum of corporatio­ns as people, if you look at them as people, the vast majority of them could be diagnosed as sociopaths­. They're completely self-absor­bed, their only motivation is profit and destroying competitio­n (other corporatio­ns or by the same legal definition other people), they have no conscience­, no capacity for empathy. The only time they do something that could be construed as generous or for the greater good is when their consultant­s tell them it's good for business. It's like they display all of the lower qualities of human beings - greed avarice predatory nature. The same behavior in a flesh and blood human being would elicit cries of shame in the community and considered appalling, but somehow it's just fine for a corporatio­n to behave that way.   And they can't be criminally prosecuted­.

We're not going to get the kind of leadership to end this travesty from either the Democratic or Republican Parties.
