Wild Wild Left Radio #65 Bankfoils, Turmoil and More Bleeding Oil
Tonight at 6PM Eastern Time, WWL Radio!!!!!
Gottlieb and Diane G. will be live and in color (or is that off color?) on WWL radio tonight at 6pm Eastern Time to guide you through Current Events taken from a Wildly Left Prospective.
Hear the Unreported & Under Reported Headlines stories you should be paying attention to, from US Politics, to the farthest reaches of the Earth by the WWL coalition of subversion: undermining the PTB by speaking Truth to Power!!!!
The Senate gives us a Permaform, rather than reform bill, making economic apartheid permanent. The color/apartheid movement in America is strong, despite the Elite’s grab, and Mexican is the new Nigger of us all.
The PTB lie to us about the Oil Disaster; trying desperately to hide the Gulf under a floormat.
Meanwhile, the rest of the World is in upheaval: The Koreas, Iran and Thailand…. and our leaders are swimming ass deep in it all; trying to find the edge to keep the upper hand.
What a news cycle!
Please join us for the only “out there where the buses don’t run” LEFT perspective on the breaking news!
Controversy? We face it. Cutting Edge? We step over it. Revolutions start with information, and The Wild Wild Left Radio brings you the best in information and op/eds from a position that others on the Left fear to tread.

Sausage WIN! Senate votes against Banksters in favor of everyone else!
On a vote to buck the Banksters and help out everybody except our financial wizards, the Senate passed the Dick Durbin Amendment to reform Debit fees with a whopping 64 votes. In even more unlikely anti bankster behavior, 17 GOP Senators voted FOR the bill.
As of the typing of this article, hell has yet to begun to freeze.
The final vote tally was 64-33.
Voting in favor: 46 Democrats, 17 Republicans and Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders [I, VT].
Voting against: 9 Democrats, 23 Republicans and Independent Sen. Joseph Lieberman [I, CT].
Good ole Joey Lieberman. He’s with us on everything but the war and Barack Obama.
But this is a great win that will benefit everyone who isn’t a MegaBank or n executive or a servant of them, and a win for everyone else, but, as always, politics make strange bedfellows.
More below the fold.
