Larry Schweikart's latest blog: "The Private Sector is in a Bullfight"

THE PRIVATE SECTOR IS IN A BULLFIGHT

. . . And it's the bull. So far, Obama's picadors and toreadors have stabbed, slashed, and otherwise compromised the bull of American capitalism. Don't kid yourself: they're going for the kill. Most of the crowd is cheering, but a few are starting to figure out that when this bull is gone, there is no more meat, ever. Moreover, a few are actually starting to worry about what it will be like to be the next "bull" when this one is gone---because there will be another bull.

The unbelievably idiotic and dangerous decision of the United States Supreme Court to deny the Chrysler bondholder claims---and thus reverse the holdings that have stood for almost two centuries in the Dartmouth case, whereby a contract is a contract---is just one more example of the reality that there can be no compromise with any branch in this current government group. We need a thorough housecleaning, including the Court, beginning with this racist Sonya Sotomayor. If I, as a professor, dared say publicly that because I'm a white male I'm "wiser" than all those black folk (or "them Jews" as Rev. Jeremiah Wright called them yesterday), then I'd rightly be out on my ear. The fact that she is even being considered for this position is deeply troubling, and old and ailing Ruth Buzzie Ginsburg will be the next to retire, allowing Zero to stick in an even more radical woman/lesbian/black/homosexual/Hispanic/whatever.

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid. Or, better yet, get active. Get very, very active. We truly don't have much time.

Larry we just have to keep ringing the fire bell and explaining why this is important. WE CAN’T go down without fighting. We owe it to our kids and grandchildren. Good job!

The ruling stated that “a denial of stay is not a decision on the merits of the underlying legal issues”.

Some posters said the case was weak because harm was not clearly shown and that the order said in legalese to try again with a stronger argument.

I am not a legal scholar and am relying on input of others for understanding.

Hmm. That does sound encouraging.

You know, maybe we need to start calling it “LIESbralism”.
