The Era Of Oligarchy

December 13, 2010 islamoyankee

Chris Hayes, on the tax cut deal: “It’s the standard bribery model of legislating that has come to characterize Washington in the era of oligarchy: if you want to put food on the table of the unemployed, you must lavishly wine and dine the CEOs and bankers who laid them off.”

[From The Era Of Oligarchy]

I don’t have to worry about Canada this year

h/t David at Joho This is the first time in a long time when I haven’t even had to joke about moving to Canada. I did start thinking, where do Republicans threaten to move to? There really is no country that repressive, except for Saudi Arabia, and I don’t think they’d go there because of all the colored people. Perhaps that’s why they are so intent on tearing this country apart, so they have a place to move to. Election 2008, humor
