Low Friends in High Places: Triad of Business, Cops and Politicians Attack Occupy | Truthout
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.

The choice in 2012 of lesser evils? But what if the President is indistinguishable from his conservative opponents on civil liberties?

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