It’s time to restore corporate power to the people by blasting through the myths about how corporations should be run, and for whom.

A frequent complaint of mine and others who have supported the Occupy Wall Street Movement (OWS) from its earliest days, is that it's not demonstrated much interest or skill at organizing the coalitions that have traditonally been the hallmark of progressive political change in America.
Merely suggesting that professional organizers become involved was often met with

"If you break the public unions in Wisconsin you can break them everywhere." — Rachel Maddow
Ok, maybe Julian Assange didn't exactly parachute into Wisconsin. But he might have! And the pathetic fact is, that link-baiting baloney is what got you here. And that was my mission.
Why? Because with Gov. Scott Walker's outrageous effort to - Read More -

Nonsense is nonsense
…and it should be exposed as such; often and always. There are few right wing lies quite so annoying as "the Nazis were Leftists/Socialists/Communists" lie. The revisionist hooey whores like Jonah Goldberg have made it easier for this orchestrated stupidity to gain new traction with his "Liberal Fascism" screed. The left, as it

This legendary rant is even better when read. The transcripts I could find always sucked. So I've made what i hope is a more readable version below, so this classic piece of polemical gold can be shared and understood more widely. I've read it dozens of times. I still can't find a flaw in it,

This is a wonderful interview, and like most of the Washington Journal good stuff, it was buried in the early morning segment when only we hard core @cspanWJ watchers even saw it.
You really need to spend some time with this segment. He covers a lot of ground, and he knows his subject(s) really well. He's

This issue has been mostly concluded for dozens of news organizations and Keith Olbermann. So who am I to wonder why no one is now interested in this "Ed Snider" person who makes big investments in right wing networks, allowing them to borrow his parent company (Comcast)'s name for their

Chris Hedges is one of our most important writers because he's not afraid to see that bad people produce bad outcomes, and good people wanting good outcomes have virtually no guarantee of winning in the long run of history. They're just fond of thinking that they might.

I've actually been doing some work today, trying to unwind from a week of ankle biting CNN and Erick Erickson. I'll have more to say after a full day or two off from this asshattery. I need some time away from the "Best Political Team on Television."
