Judge Blocks Government's Move To Cut ACORN Funding
Commented Dec 19, 2009 at 09:54:17 in Politics
“Those were CEOs of companies which had been bailed out by congress. So the tax applied to a category as opposed to an individual or a single business. It does not appear much different from a lot of federal income tax provisions to me.
I would have preferred to have those insolvent banks nationalized as opposed to rescued and allowed to continue the practices that made them insolvent in the first place.”

“Totally unregulated economic competition is a complete fiction, but I see what you mean about that fiction standing in the way of rational legisltation here in the United States. I do not think that is the only factor holding back international agreements, however. Socialist governments can be just as irrational regarding environmental policy.”

“Not only are there no binding commitments, there are actually not specific commitments regarding emissions. The U.S. can get out of all that by spending money to plant and preserve forests in developing countries.”

“Not true. As Obama once recognized, alternative energy can be a major driver of new economic growth. It will take both federal and international regulation of carbon emissions to make that happen. Obama just set that goal back at least a decade.”

“This "independents" card is a trope being played by the extreme right. We must not forget that most of these Tea Party Patriots only supported the GOP reluctantly in the last election because they found John McCain too liberal. So no Democratic candidate should pander to those who declare themselves "independent" in polls. Check out, for example, what the "American Independent Party" stands for in Calfornia.
Truly independent candidates like Bernie Sanders espouse the best values of the Democratic Party which Barack Obama ran on last election.”
