Notes Paul Krugman in today's NYTimes:
"In short, this would be a gut punch to the middle class, but a fleabite for the truly wealthy."
American politics has been divided into two completely seperate parts.
There is the "Jesus Stuff"....
And there is the "Looting Stuff."
Essentially, if the middle class and the rural ignorant can be kept in a constant state of frenzy about Gays and Atheist Liberals....the LOOTING OF THE ECONOMY by the Republican/Wall Street rich can continue indefinitely....or until there is nothing left to loot.
And very little is left to loot, even now.
The American job base is permanently damaged and will never recover.
The deficits are now so structural that no one, NOT EVEN THE FED, is willing to talk about them...and suggest a solution. Except of course to say that someday they will "self correct," but no one ever says what that would "look like" for the American middle class.
IF DUBYA AND THE REPUBLICAN RICH CAN KEEP THE IGNORANT BUBBA CLASS BEDAZZLED BY JESUS FOR THE REST OF THIS TERM.....THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS WILL BE ALL BUT EXTINCT......
Postscript: But maybe they "deserve it" as we Darwin supporters say! Note well Bubba, Jesus won't fill your gas tank or bring your job back from China/India!
