Learn how Steven Rattner's (Obama's man to deal with GM) plan for GM involves the illegal and unwarranted theft of pension funds in order to pay off international bankers.

Is Obama really about "hope" and "change" when he screws over autoworkers wholesale, and endorses an illegal plan that benefits fat cat international bankers who just sucked billions out of our government without so much as a receipt?

Clearly...they were just campaign slogans.

Take the pillow from your head, and put a book in it.

  • Does anybody REALLY think that the people (filthyrich, corporates, conservatives, military/industrial) who stole the elections in 2000, 2002, 2004, were going to let somebody who wasn't going to follow the rules become president? They would have just switched the electronic votes again. Easy since nothing has changed concerning computer voting.

    I've got friends, Obamarama-ites that rang doorbells and contributed money and all the rest while I was sending them lists of his campaign contributors (same corporates as McCain, same supporters of Cheney/bush) and they just didn't accept the facts. Vote for the guy who gets the most marginalized is usually the best choice; and that was Kucinich.

    Now that they are just flabbergasted at what Obama is/is not doing in his first six months I am able to say I told you so-but I'm not. I'm just really sad is all. They really thought that a "black guy" was going to be different. Racism in a different way I guess....but he doesn't have a black amercian background-his parents weren't slaves and his family didn't grow up in southcentral.

    Lily Tomlin the comedianne said it best: (I paraphrase) 'No matter how cynical one becomes, you can never keep up.' One smart lady!
    • Well, I'll give Obama one point.

      For being the best bullshit artist this nation has elected since probably FDR. Nobody has been able to sweet-talk our nation THIS WELL in over 50 years! The man has a silver tongue.

      Hope he doesn't use it to put another 300,000 people to death.
      • many of us knew that Obama woudl be soemwhat 'controlled' by large corporations. There are approx 100 men who 'run' the world. They need to keeep things in balanceintheir ffavor.. elections, trends etc are under their guise.. leaders must work with and under them, but many battles and wars under them may be carried out without harming the 'big agenda' and Obama will win several battles for many of us.

        Really really rea dinternational and economy info. It is surprising but makes sense.
        Your real choices every day to help make the world good are those You make every day.. in being thoughtful, contributing, making a thoughtful statement and stand.

        I hope you and I all do.
        • Only 100, and all men, huh?

          Nah, I won't be buying that. You can sell it to someone else.

          I see hundreds of thousands...perhaps millions who run the world. And they're men, women, whites, blacks, jews, gentiles, etc, etc...from all types of ethnic, religious and sociocultural backgrounds.

          There might be 100 white dudes who want to believe they run the world...but they're deluding themselves...there are many more than that.

          And the real reality...is that the remaining BILLIONs of us are the ones who really are in control. Unfortunately, most of those billions don't realize it, nor do they attempt to use it. Most honestly believe themselves to be powerless. Unfortunate, but true....
