Graphic H/T Chipsticks The Obama Diary Herman Cain punk'd republicant's big time! The republican'ts thought they were punking the American people but the punk is on them. Herman Cain is not only a disgrace to his race, he's an embarrassment to all the republicant's who thought our (republicans) blacks was better than their (democrats) blacks. Snicker The funny thing is, their new front runner is morally bankrupt, too.
"Oh? The NYPD are treating you badly? Violent for no reason? Weird." -- Black People I say, welcome to our world. I also say this is why the little people are afraid to rise up.
Psst! Mr. President the republicans mean (pun intended) business. You need to get busy. No more Mister Nice Guy.
It is like Obama has become a different person. I no longer understand him.
Question: What would McCain – or Bush and Cheney – have done differently?
Answer: Precious little.
Maybe the Republicans are blackmailing him. Maybe power corrupts way more than I thought. Maybe he has become part of the Borg Collective that is American power. Maybe I am just being too hard on him.
But the pit of my stomach tells me it is far worse than any of that: Maybe power has become so institutionalized in America that it no longer matters who holds what office. The machine itself is too powerful for any single man, even the president – supposedly the most powerful man in the world – to change.
Are we in trouble yet?

This is what I don't get. It was less than a year ago that Senate Republicans were filibustering against the passage of health benefits for 9/11 first responders until they were able to keep their Bush tax cuts for multimillionaires.
When the Fire Dept came to stand with the Wisconsin capitol occupiers, I thought that at last the PDs and FDs got it -- they knew now who was with them, and who against.
So what went wrong in NYC?
"So what went wrong in NYC?"
Good question.
