Thank you Robert Sheer for clearly exposing the herd of elephants in the room—the ownership of our government by major corporations. It was great to hear that stated clearly on the radio.

Is Palin for real? Only in her mind for the current moment and in the minds of the Tea Party-temporarily

Come on, Blankley! Stop growing government and allow corporations to continue to grow in an unregulated environment, you say? I don’t mind smaller government, so long as it is commesurate with the size of the private sector. I don’t want a massive Wall Street sector and a teeny, weeny government to regulate it. Small government + numerous small businesses = good. Big government + monopolies = kind of bad. Small government + massive monopolies = the end of the Republic and the beginning of a new era of serfdom.
Blankley is all rhetoric and far-right talking points. Though, that is his intended role here.
Robert Sheer, on the other hand, rocks. Huffington is cool, too.
Scheer’s comment about the Democrats aligning with Wall Street thieves simply because they like going to plays and concerts and were good people to socialize with was spot-on. LOL! That’s it, Dems, sell out the country to a credit-default-swap-hocking thief because you see him at the opera hall once in awhile.

Of course, Sarah Palin is for real. She is the Heroine of the Heartland, the Populist Princess, and an exciting, fascinating lady. As For Barack Obama, he needs to bring our Corpse-men home, bring ‘em back alive, and give peas a chance. Carrots, too.

Sometimes hindsight is 20/20, but all is not lost. So….someone took a wrong turn (as ol’ Bugs Bunny avers) in “Albuquerque”.
Of course Readers Digest could realistically enamor it as, “All in A Days Work”.
But oh…. the irony. We could go there but IMAGINE the headlines.

Matt Miller cannot seem to play connect the dots. He says just reining in Wall Street won’t solve the problems and then proceeds to mention a myriad of issues which are also all plagued by special interest! The root of all these problems (which Scheer hit on towards the end) is the conflicts of interest and the soft money and lobbyists preventing any decent legislation to go through. Of course after the recent SCOTUS decision, none of this really matters anyway.
It was nice to see Mr. Scheer with some fire in his belly- when he was allowed to speak lol.
