On Judge Janine or whatever her name is - last night after the huck forum, sarah said it was unfortunate that the republican party was making such a big thing out of the bain thing, and that EVERYTHING should be on the table, and we should look at everything about the candidates, and it was a legitimate form of inquiry. She also said willard should release his tax records. And today, Newt said he was releasing his tax records on Thursday. And she also said one of the reasons she hasn’t endorsed anyone was because she was very controversial and didn’t want to harm anyone’s candidacy, which made me wonder if Todd’s endorsement of Gingrich was a proxy for her.. I have never thought of Todd as someone who cared about endorsing anyone... I think sarah was sending a message and most people didn’t get it - or I am just looking at it weirdlly..
Pat Buchanan to Raymond Arroya gave a plausible explanation of what has happened the past twenty years. The free trade movement has turned out pretty much as Perot predicted it would, which a tremendous loss of industrial capacity to countries with lower wages. It does seems as though the upper classes in ever western country have more in common with their peers in other countries than with their own countrymen. The events of 2008 were just aimed at saving the bacon of the big financial institutions who had profited most.
