Times columnist David Brooks exposes “left” supporters of Obama health plan

by Joe Kishore, WSWS
Conservative New York Times columnist David Brooks, a fairly conscious representative of his class, is among the more perceptive commentators in the bourgeois media. Writing primarily for the benefit of the political and corporate elite, Brooks often attempts to cut through the fog of lies used by politicians to sell their reactionary [...]

First of All… He Does Lie. Second… You SHOULD have Called Bush a Liar

by Scott Creighton
All Lit Up with No Place to Go
The fake progressive blogosphere is lit up today over the republican lawmaker who had the audacity to yell out “You lie!” during Obama’s speech last night. And that is just as they want it because the Obama/DLC/Clintonista White House certainly appreciates a good distraction when they [...]

The Next Costume Design for AR-15 Guy

by Scott Creighton
I would just like to ask AR-15 Guy, “Chris”, a question… you know that song “Proud to be an American”?
So you go out to an event after consulting with the local police (who we know MUST have consulted with the Secret Service to get permission to allow you to do it), wearing your [...]

Breaking Quarantine: How the Obama Administration is Infecting the Global Economy

by Scott Creighton
Look at it this way: the rest of the industrialized world views our unique, selfish, greedy, primitive form of commodity driven healthcare as a hideous indictment of the weakness of the American citizen.  In their eyes, we don’t have enough brains or heart to stand up and demand what the rest of the [...]

America Uncovered: You Can Have Single-Payer Health Care if you Want It.

by Scott Creighton
The health-care debate is lost; undermined by our very leaders who were actively serving as the insurance industry’s fifth column within our own ranks.

Quarantine: The Global Element of the Healthcare Debate

by Scott Creighton
Let’s stop kidding ourselves.  We are a sick nation.
If we stay on the course we are on, desperately begging corrupted politicians for some political solution, the health care “reform” bill will pass and it will do so without a “viable” public option (phony corporate-run “co-ops” not withstanding).  The multinational insurance industry and the [...]

Neoliberal Obama Administration Dropping “The Brick” on America

by Scott Creighton
***UPDATE*** we can now add Iceland and Latvia to the growing list of victim nations.
The European Union and International Monetary Fund have told them to replace private debts with public obligations, and to pay by raising taxes, slashing public spending and obliging citizens to deplete their savings.  FT
Now they are coming for your [...]

Obama™ Backing Away from “Co-Ops” Trial Balloon

by Scott Creighton
This weekend the Obama administration came out on several fronts floating the idea that they were giving up on the Public Option.  The reaction from the left wasn’t good; in fact, it was vicious.  So this morning Obama™ let their trial balloon drop like a brick and are now trying desperately to backtrack [...]

As Expected, The White House is Killing the “Public Option”

by Scott Creighton
Never let anyone ever get away with saying that the White House had to “compromise” by giving up on the “Public Option”, or Single-Payer for that matter.   It’s just not true.
Bowing to Republican pressure, President Obama’s administration signaled on Sunday it is ready to abandon the idea of giving Americans the option [...]
