so you are saying that it makes no difference where the money comes from, or
whether one side bases its positions on ethical parameters, and the other on
morally righteous positions?
yes political winds shift, but the corporate lobbyists do not change parties to
give their attention to whoever is in power. they do try to split their bets
and give to both parties so that whoever is elected will be indebted, BUT they
are far more generous to republicans. in this elections obama refused their
support (although clinton did not) and collected small donations from the
internet and accepted support from labor. that is how he was able to outspend
mc cain/palin.
bush deserves most of the blame for the massive deregulation after his
"re-election". federal regulators held a press conference to symbolize their
commitment to deregulation. one held up gardening shears. one of bush's head
deregulators, james gilleran, brought a chainsaw. the sub prime mortgage
crisis was a failure of his administration, more than any other.
the left is very different from the right, ronn. the big money controlling
their discourse represents a completely different idealogy. this is class
warfare. in the end this election was determined by the economy, not the wars
in iraq and afghanistan.
