...on nation-wide advertisements that blame the economic down turn on unions, teachers and public employees.
Not a single executive who ran the companies that cooked up and cashed in on the phony financial boom — an industry-wide scam that involved the mass sale of mismarked, fraudulent mortgage-backed securities — has ever been convicted. Their names by now are familiar to even the most casual Middle American news consumer: companies like AIG, Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America and Morgan Stanley. Most of these firms were directly involved in elaborate fraud and theft. Lehman Brothers hid billions in loans from its investors. Bank of America lied about billions in bonuses.”
The point here is that the conservatives are receiving millions of dollars in donations from the nation’s wealthiest top 1% to pay for misleading ads in trying to convince the American public that public employees and public unions are the source of the problem. Uncommon, Common Sense: March 2011

This pretty much sums it all up.
What's so amazing is that many extreme right wingers who are NOT wealthy are "buying" that propaganda and fighting against their own best interests.
Sure, Wall Street and the big banks cashed in on the financial crisis. Like it or not, that's what their shareholders expect them to do. The CAUSE of the crisis, however, was the federal government and both political parties promoting homeownership so excessively.
Take the government out, and there would have been no bubble and no crash. Case closed.
To your credit, your story - although false - is much more interesting!
hussein obama spending TRILLIONS. Soros spending BILLIONS and the left wingnuts are terrified if a little money is spent exposing them and the union thugs.
I am sure you are horrified by Soros spending his billions! LOL!
LOL! I'm not aware of Soros trying to buy any governors......but then what do I know! Maybe you could start a Soros thread and talk about his spending and where his money goes. Also, I know you said you're a super multi tasker, but you're laughing out loud so much tonight that I'm a bit concerned for you. Don't have too much fun.

LOL, I do find the loony left endlessly entertaining. I think you clearly have shown what you know!

I'll ignore the deflection, but I'll ask you a straightforward question.. Do you support the Wall Street culprits and are you content in knowing that not only did they go unpunished, but they are reaping in record profits again?
