Paul Singer, known as The Vulture, won a $4.65 billion payment from Argentina — nearly ONE HUNDRED TIMES his "investment" of $50 million in old Argentina bonds. It was, in finance speak, the most successful "vulture attack" ever.
![]() Singer’s actions are outlawed in most of the civilized world. Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of State, attempted to stop Singer’s predatory act, but Singer did a brilliant end-run: he used his cash to help elect a new President in Argentina that would jump to his tune and pay him billions. Now, he’s attempting to do the same to the USA: pick a president for us who will feather his vulture's nest. He’s the number one donor sugar daddy for Marco Rubio’s candidacy [See, "Who Hatched Rubio"]. Singer is also the big bankroller of Karl Rove, to make sure that, even if he can’t sell Rubio to the GOP base, at least The Vulture can use "Turdblossom" Rove to ensure that Hillary won’t become President and put him out the of vulture business. Rubio, in fact, skirted some ethical lines in his attempts to pressure the State Department to side with his corpse-chewing donor against Argentina. As I’ve said, Singer directs his fellow billionaires’ investments in candidates. So, it is not surprising to see The Koch's lend their top political operative, Marc Short, to Singer's man, Rubio. ![]() But Rubio has actually switched positions. The Senator, who originally supported bankruptcy rights for Puerto Ricans, turned on a dime the moment Vulture financier Andrew Herenstein of Monarch Capital announced he would hold a big fundraiser for Marco in the Hamptons. Rubio now is calling for Puerto Rico to lay off teachers and sanitation workers to pay more to Herenstein and his fellow vultures–financiers already cranking profits on Puerto Rico bonds. Watching Rubio flip his positions to his donors’ wishes is like watching one of those little doggies glued to the top of an old mechanical piggy bank who jump through a clown’s hoop when you put a coin in their snout. Well, God bless America |

I should've stuck to my guns here, actually. That article may turn out to be a bunch of horseshit after all (although, with the way things are going right now... :rolleyes:), but if it does it'll be because the basic data was screwed up to start with, or because key regional and historical elements weren't factored in properly or at all, or because the statistical model wasn't the right one to analyze this matter, etc.; not because, generally speaking, you cannot jump to 1,237 with a sample of 79. Science has worked using induction (as opposed to deduction) for centuries; physicists have determined how the UNIVERSE works because an apple fell from a tree — how's that for a small sample. Having said that, I absolutely agree with your calls for "Dudes, CHILLAX". Eight months ago, who was "the" Republican presidential candidate to follow? Scott Walker! Shit, even Scott Walker the singer would have done better... |

There is plenty to criticize about the president, like his assassination programs or multiple military campaigns overseas while somehow winning a damned Nobel Peace Prize. Or totally caving to big interests or totally abandoning black and brown people despite having plenty of federal powers to address crucial social justice issues. But Obamacare might be his one ok thing.. |
Did yall see soccer sensation Hillary victory speech going full Tupac "Hit Em Up" through the list of Democrat #s and buzz issues? Brainwashing at its finest

Yeah the south should re-secede and take Texas, too.

Sure her tone was conciliatory, but are we sure of the sincerity of her intentions? Barry had all the same shit to say, what the fuck has he done for "black lives" for example?? Nothing is more ludicrous than insincerity. Indeed id rather Hillary said the truth rather thanpandering to what she knows many of us want to hear. And to be sure, Bernie then is even WORSE a liar because he damn well knows his platform is untenable. I don't mind if he is pulling a Ralph Nader and shift the national conversation HOWEVER what is completely DISINGENUOUS is that he is manipulating people to believe thst somehow he is gonna get that done. In real world it would take GENERATIONS to implement Bernie platform, he being 74 will be DEAD long before tjen |
Hillary basically won states that go Republican in the general election. Yet, I'll tell you, if Hillary becomes the nomination and Trump becomes the Republican nomination I just got a very scary image of this turning out much like the election of 2000, where it comes down to a win in one state and neither Trump nor Clinton getting a commanding lead.

Trump is a divider, not a uniter.
I love how he says he was helped by his dad in starting his real estate business by a "small loan of $1,000,000.00" |
I can barely get a $1500 credit limit on my credit card and I have a great credit score....

I don't think my sarcasm came through about Hilary's speech, now she keeps mentioning god over and over...Trump has a ton of baggage he has left behind in his life, one of those is his son-in-law Jared Kushner who is a NYC slumlord. He is currently cited by the city for turning off the heat this winter in rent stablized apts. But Americans probably won't care, frankly they're too stupid and they hate to see other working people with smoething they haven't got. The hate against the subway workers who have good benefits is beyond me. I have no confidence in my fellow american anymore, sadly. The Rothchild plan to destroy the country so they can loot it is just about accomplished. Imagine the profits for whomever gets the right to build up the former national parks. i KNOW YOU THINK i'M CRAZY BUT ALL THOSE ASSHOLES WITH LITTLE AMERICAN FLAG PINS ON THEIR LAPELS ARE IN ON IT. The flag pin is the code, like the masonic handshake used to be. |

Divide and conquer, an old strategy used very effectively by the Republicans and their megamoney masters. Lose your job a few years ago due to the Wall Street fraud? Don't be mad at them, or insist they be brought to justice; be mad at public sector employees who were able to keep their jobs. Upset about lack of upward mobility and fair pay at your job? Don't blame megamoney, or work toward organizing a union; instead, direct hatred toward union members and support politicians who are in favor of "Right To Work" laws. I don't have a lot of hope--so many are so stupid. |

Holy crap, Republicans are planning to bomb Trump with an autocoup at their convention. At this point I don't know what's more fucked up: proclaiming him as their presidential candidate or substituting him antidemocratically (hey, morons everywhere have been voting for the assclown).

What's truly irritating is that you don't even have to ask the guy about his plans for education or healthcare or fuck all, really, because he doesn't have any ANYWAY. All those sad wimpy reporters at the so-called "debates" have to do is point out, printed facts in hand, that the shit-for-brains is LYING. And that's it. THAT'S IT. How fucking hard can it be?! I mean, they don't even have to research dick, just go to politifact.com and print the fucking thing! Jesus Fuck!

Its a possible rumor that Steve Shelley will be swept in as the Republican candidate at the convention!

This election could truly be historic but not for the right reasons if both the RNC and DNC go against the people. Between the RNC freaking out about the possibility of Trump as their candidate and the Democrats facing the possibility of Sanders as theirs when all the elite Democrats have been pulling for Hillary, things are either going to get really interesting, or they're going to show the average American just how much these people truly don't give a shit about what the American voter wants. Will it change anything? The realist in me says no, but just imagine a Trump VS Sanders contest, for better or worse.

The cynical apathetic side of me has said for years that they wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.

I said last year and yall can quote me that this election will be won by a rich, elitist, white man... Hillary it is then ;)

Don't I wish — Sanders would DRUMPF him! Unfortunately, if we trust this vox.com article, it is just too damn unlikely. :( http://www.vox.com/2016/3/10/1118990...anders-can-win For what it's worth, Sanders won me over when he crapped on war criminal Henry Kissinger. NOBODY who's reached the level of political notoriety that Bernie has does it. When did Kissinger become an across-the-board "bipartisan elder statesman", anyway? Even Fareed Zakaria, who I usually like, quotes him regularly and interviews him as much as he can. Fuck all that! And since we're at it (sort of), fuck Nancy Reagan too! Just say YES! |

This is not dissent, this is stalinism.
"Chicago community activist Quo Vadis said hundreds of protesters had positioned themselves in groups around the arena, and that they intend to demonstrate right after Trump takes the stage. Their goal, he said, is "for Donald to take the stage and to completely interrupt him. The plan is to shut Donald Trump all the way down." |
Quote:
Oh COME ON. ![]() Trump deserves to be shut all the way down. Now, in order not to fall into complete hypocrisy, I have to defend his right to speak horseshit after horseshit. But "Stalinism", gimme a break... |
Quote:
I don't dislike Bernie Sanders. He would probably be a fun guy to have a couple of beers with. But my youthful idealism has long since faded. To anyone who thinks Sanders has a chance in hell of being president, I give you these two words: George McGovern. The parallels are striking: Nixon was a vulnerable incumbent. But McGovern was seen as way too far to the left, and Sanders is even more extreme. Anyone who calls himself a socialist isn't going to be elected president, at least not at this juncture. In fact, assuming Trump really gets the GOP nomination and survives an assassin's bullet, I think he could actually beat Sanders--and that is a very scary thought. Hillary Clinton is far from perfect, but I think a lot of the GOP tirades against her are overblown and hypocritical. As for Bengazi and the email "scandal", these would have been one day stories had she been a Republican-- as to the former, an underling would have said "The Secretary Of State can't micromanage the huge number of US diplomatic locations" and "her private server is much more secure and efficient than the inefficient one the government uses" as to the latter, and it all would have been over. Yeah, her ill advised trade agreement support is a negative, and she's not exactly free of fat cat influence. But the lesser of two evils is a very valid concept. We know she won't appoint Scalia types to the SCOTUS, wage war on women's reproductive rights, and will seek to improve on the Affordable Care Act, etc. And IMO, of all the candidates, she's the only adult in the room. Plus, she'll have Bill's help when he's not chasing interns. So my vote will go to Hillary. |

It was a Stalinistic tactic to disrupt meetings with violence and shouting or just plain obstructionism. When I used to hang out with anarchists in Berkeley thats what they'd call it when the Sparticus League or Communist Party people would show up at open organization meetings around preserving People's Park and just make it impossible to get anything done. Its curious this happened in Chicago - and just like Mark Rubio's penis talk, the MSM is blaming this on Trump, as if he organized the demonstrators himself. |
