Ever Wonder Where Karl Rove Came From?

Well, his 'no lie is not worth telling' method of 'Slash and Burn' "politics" came from a man named Lee Atwater. Whether you know that name or not we "owe" our current state of hate and lie filled, divisive, "politics" to "Mr." Atwater. Check him out here: http://www.boogiemanfilm.com/.

Unfair Trade With China Cost 2,400,000 U.S. Jobs

According to the Economic Policy Institute ( http://www.epi.org/pages/about_the_economic_policy_institute/ ) trade with China alone cost U.S. workers 2,400,000 jobs from 2001 to 2008: http://www.goiam.org/publications/pdfs/3_23_2010_epichina32310.pdf

(Yes, 29% of EPI's funding comes from Unions ... this is disclosed up-front. There are no secrets. 53% of their funding comes from, presumably, unbiased government grants. The rest comes from corporations and individuals.)

This is "IT" Folks .... If You AREN'T Stupid or Pridefully Ignorant ....

.... all the evidence (FACTS!), TOGETHER WITH supporting documentation for this incredible statement: "It has now become evident to a critical mass that the Republican and Democratic parties, along with all three branches of our government, have been bought off by a well-organized Economic Elite who are tactically destroying our way of life. The harsh truth is that 99 percent of the U.S. population no longer has political representation. The U.S. economy, government and tax system is now blatantly rigged against us."

While "Rush" is getting paid his $400,000,000 and "Hannity" is getting paid his $200,000,000 and "Beck" his $2,000,000 (what a bargain!)(to name just 3 of the HUNDREDS of bought-off shills) to LIE and DECEIVE you, this country is disintegrating.

By purposeful intent.

Obama's Economy..Obama's Big Sellout ... (to Goldman Sachs)

http://taibbi.rssoundingboard.com/matt-taibbi-on-obamas-economy

In “Obama’s Big Sellout”, Matt Taibbi argues that President Obama has packed his economic team with Wall Street insiders intent on turning the bailout into an all-out giveaway. Rather than keeping his progressive campaign advisers on board, Taibbi says Obama gave key economic positions in the White House to the very people who caused the economic crisis in the first place. Taibbi also points to the ties Obama’s appointees have to one main in particular: Bob Rubin, the former Goldman Sachs co-chairman who served as Treasury secretary under Bill Clinton.

Click above for Taibbi’s video breakdown of his argument in which he identifies the major players on Obama’s economic team, untangles the web that ties them to Rubin and points to how these relationships play into the financial “reforms” the Democrats are currently pushing through Congress.
