Deficit
To
understand the absurdity of the deficit debate consider this: according
to Bloomberg News, between August 2007 and April 2010, the Fed
provided as much as $1.2 trillion in public money to banks and
other companies to meet emergency needs. If the Fed had provided
the so-called Super Committee with just a bit more - $1.5 trillion
- that bipartisan junta could have happily met its goals for
a full decade, and the interest rate cost would have been less
than a tenth of a percent. I propose we change the name of the
congressional body to the Super Committee Bank and ask the Fed
for some money - Sam Smith
Super junta, we hardly knew ye.
. .thank God

[Joe] Lieberman -- who, needless to say, never served

career to attempting to send other Americans' children to fight
war after war after war. In sum, as The Philadelphia Inquirer's
Will Bunch put it when examining the muddled history of Lieberman's
opposition to the war in Vietnam: "the only war he ever
opposed was the only war he might actually have had to fight
in." - Glenn Greenwald
