The U.S. has undertaken swift action to protect millionaires and multi-national oil companies. The unemployed hoping for relief - any relief - must stand with hat in hand while our leaders persist in political gamesmanship.
It has been clear for a while that Congress has no sense of either urgency or decency. Occupy Congress with your concerns and help our decency challenged leaders make some good decisions before we vote them out in 2012.
Excellent video that nails most of the major issues of the day in this great country--politicians paralyzed by special interests, an embarrassingly lack of creative thinking, and by an inability to build consensus. You know what I think it's time for? A nationwide re-enacting of the first Tea Party: the Boston Tea Party of 1773. There budding Americans stood up against unfair rulers and greedy corporations and dumped the bastards' goodies into the sea. Do we still have the stuff of revolution?
