Video: The TARP Hits The Fan: Neil Cavuto Asks Elizabeth Warren "Why Doesn't Larry Summers Like You?"
Terrific interview with TARP COP Dr. Elizabeth Warren from yesterday afternoon on Fox Business (FBN). Cavuto brings up Larry Summers and his rumored dislike of Dr. Warren. It's a bizarre exchange. Excellent discussion of the proposed Consumer Financial Protection Agency:
- "We have to have one agency, just one agency that is directly responsible to the people!"

Mahatma Gandhi and His Myths
Civil Disobedience, Nonviolence, and Satyagraha in the Real World
Oh, another long post and a wiki link? That was unpredictable.
LOL

Bhagat Singh vs. Mahatma Gandhi
http://www.thecolorsofindia.com/bhagat-singh/bhagat-singh-gandhi.html
Who was the great SHAHEED BHAGAT SINGH OR MAHATMA GANDHI?
There cannot be any comparison between the two. Shahid Bhagat Singh was a young revolutionary his path was different, and Mahatma Gandhi was the Father Of the Nation. The contribution of both has been monumental in bringing about India's freedom. Britishers realised that the country could not be ruled by them any more because of these revolutionaries. Gandhiji's policy of non violence and self sufficiency made them realise that the people are waking up.
Learn cowards
Do something about the bipolar disorder.
You are the kind of guy that goes down to friendly fire.
the gig is over...go...you have no dignity left to save...
i had never heard of mattress tags but it makes sense...you come here and spout violent nonsense daily and repeatedly...
and most of the time people don't even see it because i erase or edit it...in fact no one but me knows just how insane you are...because i see your posts in their painful fullness...
First Hawaii, then Chicago, then New York City, then Paris...How fun! Those crazy elitist kids.
What about a date night for the troops, oh wait, they are too busy fighting a war. The New York City date was estimated to cost $250,000. We all have to make sacrifices. Some of us do that by nurturing a rocky relationship with abandon, others by dying for their country. Some take joy rides around the Statue of Liberty, others raise their kids while a father or mother is in another country fighting a war.
Barry and Michelle are such a cute couple but Kobe beef cheeseburgers (with mustard, what the f***), Martha’s Vineyard (mansions and lobster) the 27 servants, the $6,000 alligator purse, the $540 sneakers worn to the food bank, the expensive trip to Denmark with Oprah (do your homework Mr. President), those Wednesday night parties at the white house (wagyu steak and Stevie Wonder), and the $150,000,000 inauguration (what a mess to clean up). Where oh where does it end? Yo, my brotha, we are having a credit crunch. Slow down Barry.
Well, I smell another date night in Norway (more shearing of the sheep). We have a snake oil salesman making a mess of things in D.C., time to end the fraud.
"Curiously, some of the best earlier examples [of non-violent resistance] come from right here in the United States, in the years leading up to the American Revolution. To oppose British rule, the colonists used many tactics amazingly like Gandhi’s—and according to Sharp, they used these techniques with more skill and sophistication than anyone else before the time of Gandhi.
For instance, to resist the British Stamp Act, the colonists widely refused to pay for the official stamp required to appear on publications and legal documents—a case of civil disobedience and tax refusal, both used later by Gandhi. Boycotts of British imports were organized to protest the Stamp Act, the Townshend Acts, and the so-called Intolerable Acts. The campaign against the latter was organized by the First Continental Congress, which was really a nonviolent action organization."
Anyone up for a little non-violent resistance via the tax system? C'mon...if Gandhi does it, it's gotta be good, right? Everybody loves Gandhi.
Seriously, I found this link to be somewhat inspirational. Ken's right about non-violent resistance being important if we really want to end the bailouts, claw back some of the ill-gotten gains and stop the fiscal trainwreck being put together in Washington.
The algae is always greener on the cesspool next to you, but as soon as you jump in and muck it up, it is just as brown and shitty smelling as the one you left.
And the manifesto continues to march on... All herd animals may now retreat to the safety of their tin foil hats and pray for salvation from their parties.
"There are obvious exceptions: Ron Paul, Alan Grayson, and others — many of whom are independently wealthy — have resisted the siren call of lobbyists dirty money."
Paul has voted against HR 4762, and HR 2356, and Shays amendment H Amdt 690, which shows support for "soft money".
His record voting to protect pay discrimination is also "pure".
"Politics from Bailouts" All are involved, this started in Sept. 2008
Gobias--But that was Grey Poupon mustard--didn't you know? (ok, really, /snarkoff)
You're done here. You crossed the line yesterday...lyndon larouche is despicable and when i asked you not to link him you did it again and laughed...i will not leave any more of your posts up...having deleted 9 of them already this morning...
Keep Screaming at each other on web sites or message boards>>LOL

Elizabeth Warren, chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel, is the rare public official who doesn't mince words.
But Warren admits to being "speechless" at reports of record bonuses on Wall Street.
(Editor's note: Stay tuned for additional clips from this exclusive interview.)
