Quote from L-Kabong:
Tsingy baby, I got to agree with you.
(In the instance of the Wells Fargo erroneous foreclosure, that's a civil matter, not criminal.)
Heads should roll at Corzine's old firm. And clearing Goldman Sachs last month on the Abacus deal was pure election year politics. Obama doesn't have the stomach or heft to take on the big banks. And I don't think Romney would either. Those are his brothers in arms.
If a Liberal republican emerged, not beholden to the far right, I would be happy to consifder voting for him or her. Someone who is progressive on social issues, is not against Roe V Wade, can help promote business and the safe exploitation of natural resources, can address the war on drugs sensibly, and run with this agenda with utter confidence and fearlessness, has the personal resources to send K street packing, and has the experience of executive administration with a panoply of constituencies. There's only one republican who fits the bill, and he'll never get elected President: Michael Bloomberg.
Romney, however, is a chameleon. He did good things as Gov
of Mass, enacting the healthcare program, and closing egregious tax loopholes to help balance the budget. He was in sync with the prevailing cultural of MA. Now, he is opposed to all the things he did and stood for as Governor. You have to wonder, what kind of President would he be.
pspr and Lucrum, that's your cue to slime Obama. Guys, I wonder, if your kid says to you, "What time is it Daddy?"Do you answer, "Time to get Odumbo out of office!"
