Better to keep a tight lid on the #OWS movement because it is upsetting to the 1% that the American middle class really does care about their status.

Politifact is a scam for Republicans

From Politifact that named "Lie of the Year" to "Republicans who voted to end Medicare" comes this gem from the article:

"• They used harsh terms such as "end" and "kill" when the program would still exist, although in a privatized system."

Medicare is not a privatized, for profit system that payees have to qualify for. Perhaps Poltifact should be relegated to being a shill for conservative talking points.

It is time to simply tell media outlets that use Politifact to stop using their conservatively biased "fact checking" as being objective.

’Dismal’ prospects: 1 in 2 Americans are now poor or low income

Remember that the "solutions" Republicans offer are the same failed ones that Herbert Hoover did. Their so called policies would turn America into a 1st world Somalia of a subservient federal government to corporations, states rights, and a population that would be ripe for revolution because modern conservatives do not believe in the U.S. Constitution nor in the history of how the founding fathers ideological underpinnings of Enlightenment thought from Italy and Scotland.

Daily Mail: George Bush Cancels Switzerland Trip Over Potential Torture Arrest

Bush needs to be brought to justice. If the USA will not do it then it will be up the community of nations to do it. No matter how long it takes "W" should never be able to leave this nation under threat of arrest for his crimes against humanity.

What should #OWS do?

"Imagine you walked into a bank, applied for a personal line of credit, and filled out all the paperwork claiming to have no debts and an income of $200,000 per year. The bank, based on these representations, extended you the line of credit. Then, three years later, after fighting disclosure all the way, you were forced by a court to tell the truth: At the time you made the statements to the bank, you actually were unemployed, you had a $1 million mortgage on your house on which you had failed to make payments for six months, and you hadn’t paid even the minimum on your credit-card bills for three months. Do you think the bank would just say: Never mind, don’t worry about it? Of course not. Whether or not you had paid back the personal line of credit, three FBI agents would be at your door within hours...."

1). Take journalism out of corporate profit making.

2). It is time for Congress to do it's job as political leaders and to finally earn their $179,000 salaries. Why should we have to give them solutions? If we have to do that for them then Congress is utterly useless.

The immoral use of power to suppress protest against injustice. This time it is the fact that banking CEOs robbed from their own banks and the people of America. They still walk the streets free while we suffer from their depravity.

The tent cities of the OWS movement are representative of the tent cities in America that are out of sight and mind.

U.S. Marine Sergeant defends Occupy Wall Street protestors

We should not be "thanking" them for not brutalizing and arresting us or "thanking" them for being courteous, but we should be challenging them for what they are there for. Isn't this what we should be doing to the police?

"Then, in an epic scene, [US Marine Sargent] Thomas approached the line of NYPD officers who held their batons.

While many Occupy Wall Street demonstrators had been arrested for merely crossing the street, he exclaimed, "These are U.S. citizens peacefully protesting! These are the people you are supposed to protect!" The 10-15 NYPD officers he addressed dared not to touch him.

Sergeant Thomas continued denouncing the NYPD's actions shouting, "This isn't a war zone! I've served overseas, that's a war zone! Get rid of your batons and helmets!"

The Pro-Hunger Lobby - GOP Frontrunners Fight Aid for Starving Americans | Truthout

What is inhumane is that the Grand Old Tea Party faithful believe that it all a matter of individual responsibility. It is the fault of the individual to starve. It is the fault of the child to starve. It is the fault of the individual alone.

What is psychopathic is that the Grand Old Tea Party faithful is that government can never help the individual in dire need.

The Pro-Hunger Lobby - GOP Frontrunners Fight Aid for Starving Americans | Truthout

It is way beyond time for both the SEC and Congress to rein in the Wall Street banksters. It is time for the DoJ both at the federal level and state level to thoroughly investigat

­e the shenanigan­s by the Wall Street banksters and begin, finally, prosecutio­ns of those responsibl­e at the national and internatio­nal levels.

While the Wall Street banksters are getting fat again because they have not reformed their practices of fleecing their rubes.

The corruption of Wall Street has been aided and abetted by the corporate "ratings" agencies. Why else would Standard & Poors rate new subprime mortgage bonds get AAA while the USA gets downgraded­? This is clearly a war by the financial rulers against any rules to rein in their amoral behavior that has harmed millions of people in innumerabl­e ways (e.g., pension funds have been decimated through their investment­s on Wall Street).

Why not declare that the financial markets poise a clear and present danger to America and nationaliz­e Wall Street financial firms in order to really get at their "books" to see the amoral wizardry that has mired the world in a recession?

The acts of political terrorism by the right wing is international in scope. This should be the clarion call for the U.S. F.B.I. to act decisively on the threat by conservatives to our government. As Dave Neiwert has tirelessly chronicled that there were over twenty acts of political terrorism by the home grown militia/"sovereign" citizen movements in our nation over the last year or so. This has not been covered by the corporate media because of the overt political nature of the ownership of said media that are conservatives/free marketeers.
