1. I know...the country hasn't moved right, the dialogue has...and the
dialogue is controlled by the corporate media.

3. Sometimes fringe is more sometimes less...




Even when it's less it can be abundant.

It being 60% of Americans on the fringe, is exactly how the corporatists want it.

5. Yet they've made it pretty hard to keep the Bush tax cuts

They would have to make up the Funds.

So the revenues we got are $3.6 trillion in 2013

What more did we want?

6. We wanted life without the Sword of Eric Cantor hanging
over our heads...

How can their be any lowering of progressive's anxiety when we know the super committee is going to operate outside the constitution and include at least one conserv-o-dem?

10. Inside the constitjution, The Congress can make
and does make it's own rules... the last of these was the BRAC commission. I don't like it, but this is not unconstitutional.

11. Special rules are ways to get around the usual rules.
The usual rules are the constitution. The 'new rules' are doing a work-around it.

Yes, they get to make up some of the rules as they go, it doesn't mean they haven't used the rules to work around the constitution.

As I said...anything that takes special rules is a thing which bears some skepticism.

12. Obama should run on higher taxes on the wealthy. He'd win big.
