Senator Corker is preaching blatant union bashing. Let Corker take a massive pay cut this year. Where is his sacrifice? I’m sick of watching these well heeled oligarchs dictate to blue collar workers. Corker lives in a socialist world, his salary paid purely from taxes. He is not self-aware except possibly for some amount of shallow narcissism. He asks from the workers first while preserving incompetent management and the rich. He worships foreign auto manufacturers and wants to emulate their low wage low benefit ideology.
I’m calling you out Corker. Where is your empathy for the average worker? Why do you shake your head and worry about a man making a decent wage? Corker, you shortsighted buffoon, our standard of living is disappearing. Squeezing the lower classes for the benefit of the plutocracy is not the answer. Before the Russian revolution the czar thought like you. If you want to lose elections for another hundred years keep your foot on the neck of the average American. Corker your an anachronism. Your a fool playing a game which has been replaced by a reality that your ill equipped to comprehend. Your foolishness and hatred toward your fellow citizens has done possibly irreparable damage to our economy.
Corker go home and leave our families alone. Let us figure a rational way out of this crisis. A crisis created by you and your like thinking, evil oligarchs. The Waltons may be proud of you but we have lost our patience. We are the people of the United States. The citizen voters that lie beneath.
“We have always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals; now we know that it is bad economics;”– – Franklin Delano Roosevelt
Idiots like Corker want us all working for minimum wage 6 1/2 days a week and shopping at the company store like back in the “good ole days”. Let’s hope the smokescreen parts long enough for the low info voters to get a hard look at what these greedheads really are.
I think the people are starting to see through the smoke. Corker is like the wizard in Oz the curtain has been pulled away and he is oblivious.
And there it is.
Corker is actually no worse than any number of Dems, Salunga.
No worse than the average upper-management clone in this vast corporatracy.
And if that corporatracy continues to make the same mistakes on level after level…such as the DemRat wing (the left wing of the right wing, in point of fact) not beginning a serious effort to prosecute the Bush machine the very next day after the 2006 election returns came in, a massive Dem error led by forces as equally alien to human welfare as are those fronted by Corker…then we eventually will indeed see a Russian-style revolution here as well.
There will have to be much more hunger and death in America before that happens, but crashing our industrial infrastructure even further than it has already been crashed and removing the last vestiges of a union system will go a long way towards that eventuality. This is not something for which I wish, but there it is.
Obama will save us?
Obama will have to dance with those what brung him. The installation of Rahm Emanuel as chief of information filtering is all you need to know on that account. (Emanuel was right in there with the “impeachment is off the table” folks like Schumer, Pelosi and Reid after the ’06 elections.)
The upper ranks of DemocRatic Party is only about 10% less pro-plutocracy than is the same level of the Ratpublican Party. That is why I like to refer to the whole federal apparatus as the PermaGov. If Obama does not take this opportunity to now and forever destroy the Republican Party…and I see absolutely no signs of his desire or or of his intent to do so (Surprise me. Brother Barack. Please.) …then the rest of his administration is just going to be one Swift Boat filibuster after another.
I mean…really.
Does the United States need two right wing parties?
Please.
Later…
AG
Permagov is right on the money. No pun intended. You are corrupted into the system so that you can get the money to be elected. Hard times is the only catalyst for true chage.
