Does the Republican and teaparty behaviour in fucking up the economy re: the debt
ceiling...does that make it more believable that they have been tanking the economy all along? Does it put that meme in Americans' brains that they would do that and that they probably already have scuttled jobs for political reasons?? Anything to ensure implementation of the agenda of the wealthy.

1. I think that Obama's presser this evening basically
set it up that way. He said they won't take yes for an answer. He said that they're holding out to protect tax advantages for the wealthy at the expense of the rest of us. I think the next time he comes out, he may push it as they have distracted the country from the need to stimulate job growth by this cynical connection of the debt ceiling with deficit reduction.

2. This country is under siege IMO, all part of the plan, the implementation of the agenda of the
wealthy to convert most Americans to peasant wages for global competition. It's soooo easy to see what's going on, I'm amazed more still haven't gotten it yet ... desperate people will work for desperate wages, just like in the early 20th century and before.

4. they stated all along
their priority is to get obama out of office. they don't care how, they never have, all that matters is winning

bill clinton said it best in 2004, these people love power and they know how to get it.
