  1. TFG Physically tried to grab the wheel.
  2. I will never not blame marketers: Profit from post-structural analysis distorts truth, if such a thing exists.
  3. Horrible. Nightmarish. Utter depravity.
  4. I like the subject matter of the backstory. Dark. Well written. I’m in.
  5. “Non-hearsay” under 801(a)(statement to prove effect on listener and legally operative fact/verbal act), imho.
  6. Ginny Stroud: “One more thing before you celebrate America on July 4th, the modern anti-abortion movement was started by a racist marketer who wanted to create a movement that would assure an all-white Bob Jones University in perpetuity. He knew he couldn’t rally fundamentalists on overt racism, so he created a “moral majority” scam that self-righteous fundies lapped up. Prior to the marketing ploy, conservative Protestant churches believed abortion was a personal decision between a believer and God - protected from government interference.” “When the Roe decision was handed down, W. A. Criswell, the Southern Baptist Convention’s former president and pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas—also one of the most famous fundamentalists of the 20th century—was pleased: “I have always felt that it was only after a child was born and had a life separate from its mother that it became an individual person,” he said, “and it has always, therefore, seemed to me that what is best for the mother and for the future should be allowed.” The more you know . . . https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2014/05/religious-right-real-origins-107133/
  7. I wouldn’t go that far. Deplorable for sure, but fonferer pashudrik should be saved for those responsible for producing the deplorable
  8. News alert: Southern Baptists were pro-abortion until Paul Weyrich created the Moral Majority narrative for the Christian Right. https://billmoyers.com/2014/07/17/when-southern-baptists-were-pro-choice/ “Conventional wisdom holds that the rise of the religious right as a political force to be reckoned with during the 1970s and 1980s was driven by conservative Christians’ intense opposition to the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade. But Dartmouth College’s Randall Balmer writes that “the abortion myth quickly collapses under historical scrutiny.” He notes that “it wasn’t until 1979 — a full six years after Roe — that evangelical leaders, at the behest of conservative activist Paul Weyrich, seized on abortion not for moral reasons, but …. because the anti-abortion crusade was more palatable than the religious right’s real motive: protecting segregated schools.”
  9. Thomas: “please don’t throw me in that briar patch. But if you insist, well, . . . bye.”
  10. The roadmap for future action by our religious clerics:
  11. Moderates are a greater impediment to justice than Kluxers and their ilk. ~MLK in a letter from the Birmingham jail
  12. The economics of the decision are disastrous. With the Republican gutting of the safety net that existed in 1971 - there are going to be a lot of hungry mouths to feed - if they get fed at all. Unwanted children create unfunded negative externalities.
  13. The owners of the system disagree.
  14. PMI (US and Europe) flashing demand destruction well underway.
  15. If you guys don’t stop buying shit, the Fed will deliver maximum pain until you do.
  16. WSJ fanning the housing bust flames. https://apple.news/AyCy-e0i7Th-3LyUqpVBeSQ
  17. Not really. “Follow the Fed” was “free money” for international capital. That’s how the game is played. Same as it ever was.
  18. The VP has no comment.
  19. “Donald Trump and his allies and supporters are a clear and present danger to American democracy.” - Distinguished Conservative Jurist J. Michael Luttig
  20. Carter nominated Volcker as the Fed Chair and kept his word to Volcker that his Administration would let the Fed remain independent. See https://books.google.com/books?id=ZdIwDwAAQBAJ&dq=Carter+the+white+House+years&source=gbs_navlinks_s
  21. The belief in the Fed Put continues to buoy markets. In other words, there is a lot of money riding on the Fed coming to the rescue if the financial markets squeal loud enough.
  22. RICO was built for cabals like Trump's band of loonies. Especially in Georgia.
