I cannot find anything

I cannot find anything contradicting the facts stated in this piece (anywhere that is actually considered journalism). I'm sure that non-factual "facts" probably exist over at unicorn and fairy land otherwise known as FOX "news" though.

I doubt I will ever stop being amazed how well the GOP gets their constituents to side against themselves. It reminds me of Dave Chappel's skit where he plays a blind black man in the KKK.



Thank you!! :)

Let American companies outsource, let them also find some other suckers to buy their wares.

Congress must require companies to label their products identifying if it was assembled abroad. Then Americans can decide if they want to buy them.

Gotta love Rachel Maddow.

Gotta love Rachel Maddow. The rich are indeed wining the US class war as far as the mid term elections are progressing. The tide of incoming bullshitters for foreign outsourcing companies is rising.

One aspect of this rising tide of bullshit from the extreme right empire goons is promising however....

Look at it this way, pushing the crats to the right to appear as centrists, ostensibly to appeal to a broader swath of the US electorate has gotten Obama and the crats a open can of whoop ass from the US progressive left, swing votes on the hard left aren't going to the right, ever. It's the independent knuckle draggers who are shifting there, not the left.

Looking forward, adding more globalist input to US elections is going to make for a magnificent blow back, a perfect storm if you will that will usher in some very hard truth to the American media's attention, namely this, that sucking sound is coming from both sides of the isle in DC but primarily from the bougios of both parties which becomes the 2012 issue of great price, that pearl of wisdom becomes the tip of the index finger of fate toppleing that fisrt domino, from whose falling the others dutifully cascade in succession, plan for it now crats to the left or to the dust bin.
