It is with great pride and feelings of intense sentimentally robust patriotic fervor that I call for all loyal citizens to acclaim the achievements of our U.S. Senate.  Without their stout defense of the banking and credit service industries our unprecedented economic recovery cycle about to begin would be in danger of faltering under the attacks of the recidivist lackeys that cling to outmoded theories.

The far-seeing cadres acclaiming the U.S. Senate are not fooled by the blathering traitors who claim to represent “The People”. It is of course expected and no doubt necessary that the Senators require no less than full reward for their labors, suitable to their vast personal wealth and complementary to their immunity from prosecution. How excellent in foresight were the Framers of our U.S. Constitution, and how flexible and creative our U.S. Senate in interpreting this historical legacy so that their wisdom shone in passing a bill before the U.S. House of Representatives had done so! Not limited by law or custom our intrepid Senators blazed a fiery path across the financial firmament, guaranteeing their lobbyist contributions for ages to come while securing the hard-earned billions of our bold Business Leadership in Wall Street. Truly we can marvel at the sagacity and sheer endurance of their quest for riches and luxuries under such strains as have been precipitated by the crafty and vile homeowners who have forsaken their mortgage obligations.

And so we must all hail the glorious bailout success evening and register our dismay at the critics of this noble Senatorial undertaking to rescue all that they hold dear: their flatulent and corpulent asses that crush the backs of the working poor.

Random thoughts on a Monday night…

Since impeachment is off the table, and Congress is out to lunch on its oversight responsibilities, the Rethuglican BOMIC is shoveling as much money as it can down its gaping maw. Printing money to bail out Wall Street. Allowing Big Oil to propagandize the public into thinking drilling is the answer to their greedy price gouging. Allowing the Defense Dept. free rein to the Treasury for no apparent gain. Meanwhile the local police become more SWAT-like and wanna-be Rainbow 6 geared-out, Tasering the disabled and elderly for not being subservient and craven when stopped for no reason and harassed. Clockwork Orange time. WHo ever expected a fatality rate for going through airport security?

If you think Iraq is going to stay stable after US troops leave in 2010, 2011,2012, 2025, 2050, I’ve got news for you. People in that part of the world have Saturday night knife fights about things that happened 1300 years ago.

The budget and the currency are kaput. Billions on biodefense pork for big pharma and universities while the alleged Amerithrax terrorist was a US biodefense scientist.

Nothing is in the way of these trends. More broke. More totalitarian. Tell me I’m wrong, show me how Obama or anybody else is going to stop the lobbyist – Defense Dept. Corporate Intelligence Surveillance Society from ruling behind the scenes.

Who can call an oversight hearing when “the past is past” becomes the mantra once the elections are over?

How can the rule of law be real in this kind of political frame?
