Thanks for pointing to Steve Benen.

Sure re: the hate. There are many reasons but what I see is that Limbaugh et. al. and Murdoch fed it steroids to advance their own agenda.

I do believe, as worried as I am today, that good always defeats evil...It may be hard-fought but it does...and we and our youth will find a way to make things right again.

I don't see that. The rich don't want a depression or the markets to crash. Like everyone else they want stability. The problem is that there's a handful of teapers who exert influence far beyond their numbers because moderates on both left and right can't get their acts together.


...the rich are telling the poor to eat cake.
