that’s total bullshitand a travesty of justice.

his fortune should be redistributed and he should be jail for life, or at least a full year for every person he fucked over.

letting these asshole get away with financial murder is so trendy right now though… (Thanks Obama for doing nothing about the banking scandal. Asshole.)

At Netroots, hints that the left might slowly be catching on

At progressive gathering, hints of anxiety about Obama – CNN.com.

God damn “progressives” are a slow bunch!

Obama has not changed, this is the same man who campaigned and got elected; the same man you fucking idiots fawned over and fell over selves about like you were idiot tweens fawning over a pop star. If any of you had pulled your heads out of your fucking asses any time since your fairytale fantasies started getting you hard/wet back in 2008 you would have seen what was right in front of you face.

Yes, this is a (1/2) black guy and it’s great that a racial barrier got broken but he isn’t and never was your guy.

You guys are too high on your own opinions to pragmatically see reality for what it is though, and this dooms you to sabotaging your own agenda again and again and again.

Let us count the issues you have been sucked on, shall we?

Keystone XL
Investigating & Prosecuting Banking Maleficence during the Mortgage crisis
Foreclosures
Lower the debt load in mortgages
Manufacturing Jobs
Job Creation
Government Overreach due to the Patriot Act
Fairness in Immigration Policies
Improving the VA’s record of serving those who served
Doing something (anything) about Climate Change
The list goes on
And on
And on
And on

“On some things he is just wrong, and on other things he is just absent.” No shit, Sherlock? Told you so, you fucking loser assholes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Governor, I’d rather eat my own arm off than vote for you to take national office (nothing you can say would convince me of anything other than being anti-choice is solely born from regarding living, breathing women as second class citizens) but apart from that you are a class act. The G.O.P. does not deserve you, good sir.

Mormon Mom Who Fought for Prop 8, Now Fights for Gay Son – Yahoo!.

It’s very nice that these people pulled their heads out of their asses in an effort to protect their own son but the undercurrent to this story is that if it had not affected them personally they would still be raging bigots.

Perhaps God or Jesus would say forgive and forget but seeing as how I am neither one of these characters I am underwhelmed with their new “open-mindedness.”

Vladimir Putin will buy Robert Kraft a new ring ‘if it’s so valuable to him’ | For The Win.

Riiight, because any old bit of bling will aptly replace something that’s value comes from sentiment.

The only interest I have in this story is that it rather nicely encapsulates what I imagine Putin’s humanity, innate ability to discern emotional & sentimental value, capacity for empthay, and basic ability to assign value outside of money and power to anything in the world around him is.
