[ Budget Impasse ] Senator Dominic Pileggi's Bully Budget

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know when a rocket has blown up. And you don't have to be an economist to know that our money system has blown up too. All the while Republican's want to champion the idea that they are fiscally responsible. Forgetting that it was under their watch that Wall Street and Corporate America had a hay day in turning debt into profit and American lives into merchandise. They claim to be the party that will save America from economic destruction much like an arsonist works hard to put out a fire that he started in hopes of being deemed a hero rather than a criminal. Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi follows his GOP party line as he bullies Philadelphia with a limbo budget. But is Pileggi just as ready to let go of his financial investments in Chester? It appears that a soccer stadium is more important than the jobs of Philly City workers and his very own working class constituency. Shame shame shame...

@AmericanPowerBase Nah you're just a racist in denial. Move on UP? really?

The Government didn't force WaMu to pump out an assembly line of liar loans, the Government didn't force Country Wide to commit insider trading fraud, the Government Didn't force AIG to dish out ten derivatives on EVERY trade, the Government didn't force the Fed to have no interest loans.

Sure you can blame Fanny Mae. You can also blame a guy who pisses in the ocean during a flood, but I'd rather stop the Tsunami.
