By Jeff Berg
www.countercurrents.org/berg221008.htm
The Republicans have gone to extraordinary lengths to steal the last two elections. It is truly breathtaking just how badly compromised America’s election process has become. What has been perhaps even more astounding has been the American and Canadian media’s lack of willingness to engage this story. Is this election beyond the reach of theft? One would like to think so. It is after all in the interest of the entire world that America begin to recover its democracy, and the integrity of the vote is as good a place as any to start. But…

America’s economy is eroding. Government and Wall Street are orchestrating it. Maybe even willfully, and here’s the legacy they’re leaving. The nation “passing from democracy to oligarchy (and steering it is) a bipartisan financial kleptocracy” chuckling all the way to their offshore tax havens

If there is one thing I hate, it’s being patronized by educators that believe they have the final word because they work with “political theory” everyday. This time it’s Noam Chomsky that is doing it. Mr. Chomsky explains that we will be better ultimately (meaning the common man) under a Democratic administration. He suggests we vote for the lesser of two evils by insinuating that to vote for a lesser evil is still a vote against evil

I was shocked by the Obama statement that he would welcome Warren Buffet, the wizard of Wall Street, to be his Secretary of the Treasury.

Powell didn’t give Obama his endorsement without getting a promise of something in return
