Just found this, further up the thread, and, as an Englishman, it made me smile (rather ruefully):

"I wish the Queen of England would attack and conquer Amerika. Free us from corporate domination."

I'm afraid that it wouldn't do 'Amerika' much good because we're as much in the vice-like grip of the neo-liberal free-marketeers as you are - and on the same doomed course!

Bottom line here is that it took 30 some years for the US to get into the current pickle it finds itself in and Obama ain't going to fix that in 8... Especially with the House of Wackos who think they were elected to destroy the US government and/or economy, which ever they can pull off...

Some of what you just said I am in agreement with, but what, pray tell, is an "FDR moderate?" I, personally, think we need a BIG dose of restoring Roosevelt-initiated programs and regulations (reverse Reagan's reversals), and I wish Obama would get with it. My quibble with Obama is that he is too damned conciliatory and needs to rear up and roar a helluva lot more.

As one political pundit put it, Obama's position is a bit to the right of Eisenhower's. But out of the slate of viable candidates last time around, he was the best.

As far as YOU are concerned, Songwronger, your posts are full of a mixture of hate and misinformation; and God knows I get enough of that crapola in the mass of unsolicited e-mails I get every morning, so you'll understand why I don't read YOUR posts very carefully since I've read it all before!

One thing is that when your are asked a question such as my asking you what you are FOR, or any other simple question, you—and a couple of other people I could name—almost invariably respond with insults and general snottiness, claiming that you've already made that clear (which you haven't or it's buried in such vitriol that no one bothers to read it), accuse us of being unable to read simple English, and then accuse anyone who disagrees with you of "goose-stepping to Obama's tune," or something similar.

If I were running for political office, I wouldn't want YOU on my side. Anybody with an attitude like yours would do me more harm than good!

Don Firth

P. S. Considering the nastiness of some of the anti-Obama posts on this and other threads—not to mention starting threads for the sole purpose of trashing Obama—I tend to suspect that the REAL reason for such malice is that the White House is currently occupied by a man of the wrong color. There seems to be a lot of that still going around.

I'm an FDR moderate. Some social programming, but not so much that it leads to dependency. No excessive financial penalties for independent endeavor.

Tax wall street. They currently pay no tax on transactions. Tax those transactions minimally, then when the government coffers fill up, cease all talk about shortfalls and deficits.

Anti-war. Cease all American involvement in foreign situations and bring the troops home. Replace boots on the ground with lucrative trade partnerships.

Roll back all laws infringing on constitutional rights, and publicly try the people who violated our rights by passing and ruling in favor of those laws. They violated their oaths of office, so try them for treason and execute the deserving ones.

75 Economic Numbers From 2012 That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe

http://www.activistpost.com/2012/12/75-economic-numbers-from-2012-that-are.html

#1 In December 2008, 31.6 million Americans were on food stamps. Today, a new all-time record of 47.7 million Americans are on food stamps. That number has increased by more than 50 percent over the past four years, and yet the mainstream media still has the gall to insist that "things are getting better".

#5 For the first time ever, more than a million public school students in the United States are homeless. That number has risen by 57 percent since the 2006-2007 school year.

#6 Median household income in the U.S. has fallen for four consecutive years. Overall, it has declined by over $4000 during that time span.

#9 In September 2009, during the depths of the last economic crisis, 58.7 percent of all working age Americans were employed. In November 2012, 58.7 percent of all working age Americans were employed. It is more then 3 years later, and we are in the exact same place.

#10 When you total up all working age Americans that do not have a job in America today, it comes to more than 100 million.

And so on. Links to each point contained in the article.

I'm no partisan hater. George W. Bush should be fairly tried and executed for his genocidal crimes against the American people. Same as Obama. They are both corporate fascists, and their policies have lead to the deaths of those they swore to serve. Try the bastards, execute them, then put someone in office who knows how to keep an oath. Now tell me again how I'm being partisan about this.

As far as unemployment numbers go:

More Phony Employment Numbers

A government that wants to cut the social safety net doesn't want you to know that the unemployment rate is 22.9%. A government that wants to cut the social safety net when between one-fifth and one-fourth of the work force is out of work looks hard-hearted, mean-spirited, and foolish. But if the government reports only one-third of the unemployed and presents that rate as falling, then the government can present its cuts as prudent to avoid falling over a "fiscal cliff." --Paul Craig Roberts was Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy and associate editor of the Wall Street Journal.

And then there's the argument currently being made that paying out unemployment benefits creates jobs. The Obama people are promising to create hundreds of thousands of jobs not by investing in infrastructure, not with manufacturing, but by passing out unemployment checks:

https://www.google.com/#hl=en&tbo=d&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&q=democrats+unemployment+creates+jobs&oq=democrats+unemployment

Think of that. Obama's going to print more money, pass it out for not working, then claim he's created 300,000 new jobs. Truly a man of stinkless shit.

But of course the hater just wants you to look at the cumulative.

That's why they cry about the national debt, and not usually the deficit. Except of course when they can't keep those two straight and end up lying about the trend in deficits.

Over 1 Million Americans Enter Poverty In Last Two Months

And we thought last month's delayed foodstamp data was bad. The just reported foodstamp number for September was a doozy, with 607,544 new Americans becoming eligible for foodstamps, as a record 47.7 million Americans are now living in poverty at least according to the USDA. The monthly increase was the highest since May 2011, and with August's 421K new impoverished America, over 1 million Americans made the EBT card their new best friend. It is unclear just which atmospheric phenomenon will get the blame for this unprecedented surge in poverty, which comes at a time when the pre-election economic data euphoria was adamant that the US economy was on an escape velocity to utopia. Instead what we do know is that in August and September, over three times as many foodstamp recipients were add to the economy as jobs (324,000). We also know that with the imminent impact of Sandy, which will send foodstamp recipients soaring, it is now looking quite possible that the US may end 2012 with just over a mindboggling 50 million Americans living in absolute poverty and collecting the $134.29 average monthly benefit per person, instead of working. Welcome to the recovery indeed.

Activision Publishing layoffs at Minneapolis office

by Alexander Sliwinski Writer RSS on Oct 30th 2012 4:00PM


Activision Publishing has had a round of layoffs at its Minneapolis location, in preparation for a smaller slate of licensed games next year. Joystiq has been told that 30 full-time employees were let go. These cuts were made at the publishing level and no studio personnel were affected.

"Like any successful business, Activision Publishing consistently works to align its costs with its revenues – this is an ongoing process. In 2013, we expect that our Minneapolis division will release fewer games based on third-party licenses than we released during 2012," an Activision spokesperson informed Joystiq in a prepared statement.

"As a result, we are realigning the structure of our Activision Minneapolis division to better reflect our slate and the market opportunities. We are working to redirect those employees that are impacted to other parts of the company where possible, as well as offering them outplacement counseling services."

Activision's Minneapolis branch mostly handled licensed titles, like the Cabela series and Bond. Activision's 2012 slate was fairly licensed game heavy, but the company is stepping back from that in 2013.

response to Caterpillar:

at http://www.southernminn.com/owatonna_peoples_press/news/local/article_d96f81a1-780c-5d5e-b548-be3e787f3577.html

OWATONNA – Five Caterpillar administrators drove to Steele County on Thursday to tell 100 employees the bad news that they will be without jobs when Caterpillar's Owatonna plant closes on March 1, 2013.

Caterpillar spokesperson Rachel Potts said the forest products plant, located at 3249 South County Road 45 in Owatonna, will "ramp down production" between now and March 1. She also said that eventually all forest products made in Owatonna will transition to other Caterpillar forestry plants in Prentice, Wis., and LaGrange, Ga.

Potts was one of four Caterpillar administrators who met with Owatonna employees Thursday morning when employees were told about severance packages. Potts said the company would not comment on the length or amount of the severance packages or whether they included benefits, such as health care. Among the company leaders who spoke with employees was John Carpenter, president of Caterpillar's Forest Products Division.

"We value our employees' contributions, and these actions are not a reflection of them, but rather the result of a need to make our business more efficient and competitive," Carpenter said in a press release. "We understand these decisions will be difficult for the lives of many of our workers and their families, and we genuinely regret that. In addition to working with local agencies on outplacement services, we're also partnering with potential area employers, including other nearby Caterpillar plans, to host job fairs for impacted workers."

Some 20 engineers will remain employed by Caterpillar and will work in Owatonna. Where the engineers will work will be determined later, as the company plans to sell the Owatonna plant. The plant has not been put on the market yet, but Potts said that will happen very soon.

Owatonna resident Carol Nelson built the plant itself in 1966 for his National Tree Expert business. In the early 1970s, National Hydro-Ax also started building forestry products in Owatonna. Nelson sold his interest in National Tree Expert and the company eventually moved to Austin, Texas. Nelson then invested the profits from the sale to become a part-owner of National Hydro-Ax. After a rapid growth in demand, Hydro-Ax sold to Omark Industries in October 1980, and at that point, the product line grew to seven tractor models. Then, in 1985, Blount Inc. bought the operation and became a 22-year staple in Owatonna until being sold to Caterpillar in 2007.

In April 2011, the Owatonna plant built its 10,000 tractor, a wheeled feller buncher.

Owatonna mayor Tom Kuntz was disappointed to see a longtime local employer leave town.

"Anytime a company announces that they are going to close down in a community, it's a sad day," Kuntz said. "We hate to lose any employer, any business within our community.

"We met with Caterpillar (on Thursday), and it was a business decision. They felt it was something they had to do. It was not a reflection on the community or the employees."

Along with offering employees a severance package, Potts also said Caterpillar will consider the employees for positions at other Caterpillar plants, including some Twin Cities locations that make paving equipment. In addition, Caterpillar will hold a job fair in the next couple of months. The job fair not only will include other Caterpillar locations, but other local and area employers.

"These employees have a wonderful skill set that is in demand," Potts said. "We have welders. Welders are in demand, so are machinists. We want to help them find a place to use their skills."

Kuntz recognizes that the 100 employees who will be losing their jobs have strong skills and he hopes those local residents will stay in Steele County.

"Those employees have skill sets that are needed in our community," Kuntz said. "Hopefully, we can help transition some of those people to other places within our city."

The news of Caterpillar's leaving Owatonna comes a year after Chart Industries opened a plant, a couple months after Fareway announced the building of a grocery store on the former Oak Street location of the Owatonna Hospital and a couple weeks after Bremer Bank opened a location next to Truth Hardware.

Brad Meier, president and CEO of Owatonna Area Chamber of Commerce and Tourism, said even with Caterpillar leaving town, Owatonna still has a bright future.

"We are really positive about the future," Meier said. "Our economic development partnership looks at strengths of our community with the diversity of industry, our location and infrastructure. We think we are positioned extremely well and this announcement (on Thursday) is unfortunate, but we are still extremely optimistic about the future."

"RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Smithfield Foods Inc. said Wednesday that it will begin its previously announced shutdown of a Virginia facility that makes hot dogs and deli meat.

The Smithfield, Va.-based company said layoffs will start at the Portsmouth plant in January and it will close at the end of March. The first layoffs at the Smithfield Packing Co. facility will involve about 120 workers, with more than 400 workers affected by the time plant is closed, said Jeff Gough, Smithfield's senior vice president for human resources. Employees have been offered transfer opportunities.

Smithfield Foods, the world's biggest pork producer, announced plans last November to close the plant in 2013 and shift production to a facility in Kinston, N.C. At the time, the company said it was closing the plant, built in the 1970s, because it cannot support the manufacturing technology changes and product development necessary to meet the company's needs.

Smithfield will bring a new $80 million state-of-the-art hot dog plant online in its fiscal fourth quarter next spring."

Yeah, Little Hawk got it right up there, about both parties routinely betraying the electorate. Though I think Romney would have delivered on his lunacy. And he is a loon. Calls himself a saint, to begin with. Then the saint says he "likes to fire people." Proud of raiding pension funds. He's a total psycho. I'm glad he lost, because he would have been onboard with that other top-tier psycho Netanyahu for an attack on Iran. At least the Muslimish lunatic Obama will drag his feet on that front. Indonesian boy going around the world bowing to Muslim kings and princes. Obama belongs in a whore house, not the white house. He won a squeaker against the most insane candidate to run in modern times. Tells you how much America hates Obama. We know what he's doing. Transfer of wealth and all that. But it's not a Marxist transfer--he's passing it through the corporations, the banks. So it's a fascist transfer. Anyway, given the alternative I'm glad he was re-elected. Let his pinheads shout their adulation from the gutters when he strips them of their property. My family is ready for the Obamanization of the country. We're good to go on the survival front, and it will be a true joy watching you limousine liberals have to come to grips with what you've done. If you've been drinking the Obama-flavored kool aid then you're in no way prepared for what's about to hit the U.S. Sandy was a freakin' category 1 hurricane, and the feds couldn't get the power back on after a decent interval. While the media praised Obama for taking the situation in hand. Bush had a category 4-5 in Katrina, and you people still squall about that, but Obama's category 1 was an opportunity to laud the Chosen One for his leadership skills. You fuckin dolts.

Talk about lazy thinking and total lack of attention! They must read only what they want to read and not even SEE the other words in the posts of the people they disagree with about something. Songwronger and Henry have both made it absolutely plain over and over again that they considered Romney to be an utter disaster. Neither one of them is a rightwinger.

You don't HAVE to be for Romney or the Republicans or on the Right to have some reasons for criticizing the Democratic administration. Wake up, for God's sake, and actually READ the posts of the people you can't be bothered to do anything but stereotype and spit puerile insults at. You are youselves "noisy asses who contribute nothing of any substance" here, but mostly just engage in ad hominem attacks. You attack some people here for supposedly being upset that Romney lost.............Say What?????????....they were never wanting him to win in the first place!

And by the way...I'm absolutely delighted that Romney lost. But I expect more BS, war, and other corrupt nonsense from the 2nd Obama administration in spite of that. As far as I'm concerned, both those parties routinely betray the electorate once they're in office...with one discernable difference: the Republicans are usually the worse of the two in certain respects. That's why I'm glad Romney lost and Obama won. I'd be even gladder if they both lost, and those 2 parties ceased to exist at all, because they are criminal organizations in the employ of a criminal elite.

Here's what I think. Obama is being mislead by sinister forces in the U.S. McCain, Leiberman and Graham are making arms deals with the Syrian opposition, absolute opportunism for the munitions industry, and going behind Obama's back to do so.
There are factors going on behind the scenes that Americans don't know about and there are elements in the GOP who are trying to sabotage Obama's presidency. There may be some Dems who are doing this too.

Still, the foreign policy decisions are wrong for the country, more drones, more troop escalations or occupations, more support for Israel's misdeeds and some of this must be attributed to Obama but not all.

As long as taxpayers are funding munition sales, shoring up world dictators, keeping Wall Street criminals out of jail, running Bagrams and Guantanmos, and supporting media propaganda, no president will ever be able to make a recovery. Romney certainly wouldn't be able to do it with his elitist ideology. At least Americans had sense enough to see that.

We need a president that says to the wealthy oligarchs and proto-fascists in this country,
"I welcome your hatred!"

More sour grapes crap. Righties lost because they adhere to ideas that are clearly and demonstrably false.

The healthcare act was modelled after Romney's health care act in Mass. It has been in place there for years, so one can actually look at the record. A team from Georgetwon U. did just that, and it turns out that Romneycare was good for small business.

Read and learn.

No, wait. Don't learn. It is what made you lose. Keep up the crap barrage please.
