Sheena may have been a punk rocker, but the late Johnny Ramone (and the premier talent in the band), was a real conservative.

Henry Blodget (born 1966) is an American former equity research analyst,
currently banned from the securities industry, who was senior Internet analyst for CIBC Oppenheimer during the dot-com bubble and the head of the global Internet research team at Merrill Lynch.
In 2002, then New York State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, published Merrill Lynch e-mails in which Blodget gave assessments about stocks which conflicted with what was publicly published. In 2003, he was charged with civil securities fraud by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. He agreed to a permanent ban from the securities industry and paid a $2 million fine plus a $2 million disgorgement

That response is like torpedoing the SS Blodget, machine gunning the survivors and then letting the sharks have their turn. By the fourth point the crabs are nibbling on the little bit that is left.

Sure, Hank, it’s the VRWC and not the inexperienced, Socialist moron in the White House.
Whatever.

Yep, Johnny was great. I think he wrote most of the songs.

I guess this is just like the Democrats and their pals on Wall Street deliberately tanking the market in ‘08 to get Obama hired; according to the book Trickle Up Poverty.

The author of this article,
Henry Blodget currently banned from the securities industry, went to Yale.
He was born and raised in New York.
What do you expect?
The liberal's problem is
psychological projection.
Liberals do this all the time.
Here's a definition.
Freudian ProjectionThe following is a collection of definitions of projection from orthodox psychology texts.
In this system the distinct mechanism of projecting own unconscious or undesirable characteristics onto an opponent is called Freudian Projection.
- "A defense mechanism in which the individual attributes to other people impulses and traits that he himself has but cannot accept.
It is especially likely to occur when the person lacks insight into his own impulses and traits."
- "The externalisation of internal unconscious wishes, desires or emotions on to other people.
So, for example, someone who feels subconsciously that they have a powerful latent homosexual drive may not acknowledge this consciously, but it may show in their readiness to suspect others of being homosexual."
- "Attributing one's own undesirable traits to other people or agencies, e.g., an aggressive man accuses other people of being hostile."
- "The individual perceives in others the motive he denies having himself.
Thus the cheat is sure that everyone else is dishonest.
The would-be adulterer accuses his wife of infidelity."
- "People attribute their own undesirable traits onto others.
An individual who unconsciously recognises his or her aggressive tendencies may then see other people acting in an excessively aggressive way."
- "Projection is the opposite defence mechanism to identification.
We project our own unpleasant feelings onto someone else and blame them for having thoughts that we really have."
And here's a problem with honest people.
(General) ProjectionHere projection is assuming that others act or perceive similarly according to this definition it is not necessary for a projected trait to be undesirable or unconscious.
Projection is probably inherent in social animals and the single most important psychological mechanism.
The following are given as examples:
- Individual A assumes that B sees the colour red as he does, until informed that B is colour-blind;
- Someone who never lies is easy to deceive because he projects his truthfulness onto others, assuming that others are honest also;
- It takes one to know one;
- An inept con-man fears that others are trying to cheat him, signals his fear and alerts others;
- (Freudian) An individual who possesses malicious characteristics, but who is unwilling to perceive himself as a protagonist, convinces himself that his opponent feels and would act the same way.
Liberals constantly
project their own
vile values onto conservatives, intentionally or unintentionally,
and they need to called on it, shamed on it, and laughed at to scorn, when they do it.
We MUST get rid of these evil people.
