The Democratic role in creating a massive black hole in the Middle East for resources and lives should not eclipse its importance as the "liberal" face of Reaganite greed gone mad.
There was a very revealing episode of Bill Moyer's NOW this past week focusing on the rapid growth of vast economic inequalities in the United States. In it, economist Robert Pollin stated, "The average corporate executive, even at the end of the George Bush I administration, was making a lot more than the average worker. 119 times more. But by the end of the Clinton administration, so that's only over a course of eight years, the average corporate executive is making 449 times more than the average worker." <http://www.pbs.org/now/transcript/transcript_rules.html>
This is a tidbit worthy of wider circulation.
All of you CEOs would be well-advised to consider voting for another Democratic president. Anyone considering voting Democratic who is not a CEO....
