David Horowitz has been warning us for years that "it all comes together at the top".

Here's the proof of the pudding: Presidents of both parties getting their Treasury secretaries from the same tiny, polluted pool of talent.

By the way, I read last year that one of Goldman's junior executives, a prince-in-waiting, was dating Chelsea Clinton. Think that's far enough "inside politics"?

"....the incoming Obama administration, populated with protégés of Rubin and Greenspan, may continue to resist the necessary regulation...."

Or they may just be full-blown coconspirators and confederates.

Its called an oligarchy. The Republicrats. Washington vs America.

Sarah Palin elicits a visceral response from them because she’s US!

It's a nice diversion and lets everyone show their anger while nothing is ever done about it. I consider it a "bipartisan" fleecing by "bipartisan" crooks.

David Horowitz has been warning about this for years, that when he started tracing the funding of the various campaign PAC's, orgs, causes, and think-tanks back to their sources, it all started to look like it was coming from the same places.

"It all comes together at the top," he warned.

Ernest. I got through the first five pages of MATT TAIBBI's article at the Rolling Stones.
Due to a bit of fatigue from being at the hospital for most of each of the last four days watching over my mom who was admitted and just now is starting to do better, I'll spare you the details, I have not been on the boards much nor up to making spirited responses to many pings.
But *hit. If what this guy says is all true, which much of it is most probably easily verifiable just on what we have learned over the past few months, both sides of the political spectrum are equally responsible for this financial meltdown. We cannot just point the fingers at ACORN, Rahm Emenual, Franklin Raines and the rest of Zero's goons squads and associates, but even more must point the finger at so called responsible investment bankers and Insurance companies, obviously AIG being the bulls eye.
These bastards all should be serving very very long prison sentences. They all are equally as greedy and evil as Madduk. His scam is like a little kid stealing a candy bar compared to a team of hoods robbing all the banks in say NYC.
And clowns like Graham. Damn him and the rest on both sides of the house that allowed all this shit to come to past, with no or modified regulations.
