FLASH: BIG BIRD is in the 47%!!

The Sinister Face of BIG MONEY

 

I told a story in an earlier blog about how the multinational corporations were excused from allegiance to this country in the legislation that made them "legal".  The events of this past week make it clear to the mass public that such an excuse from patriotism extends to Big Money. 

 

Just as the 47% declaration by Mitt in the secret Boca Raton meeting made it clear that we now have a 53% to 47% split in our nation, the debate results show that the voting public is "split" psychologically.

 

Mitt "doubled down" on the Clint Eastwood tack taken in the Repoob Convention.  It worked!  The average viewer, and some media pundits, have their heads and hearts with the 53%, and their butts with the 47%! Where are you??  How will you vote?  Will you vote?

 

Mickey Edwards, in The Parties Versus The People, shows how this separation within the nation is expressed by our political parties.  http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/sep/7/book-review-the-parties-versus-the-people/?page=alls.

 

The President caught a break on Friday, to moderate some of the fall-out from his Wednesday "non-performance".  It came in the form of favorable employment numbers.  That made some of the Big Money Boys, who have been backing the mean 53% in secret, reveal themselves.  We saw Jack Welch, Steve Forbes, Mort Zuckerman, and others pop up to shore up Mitt and the Repoobs, and some of them cast aspersions on a respected institution of our government.

 

Can the voting public afford this split in their emotions vs their rationallity?  Can the country survive a combined attack from the Repoobs and Big Money?  Mitt now claims he wants to represent 100% of the nation -- while slashing away at every effort to bring us together.  To Mitt, "community" means his race and his religion; to the President, "community" embraces mankind.
