Nope, it actually rhymes with "why can't"...

And what do you think it is that you DON'T see it???

Because the Democrat leadership has JUST as much invested in keeping the tax code complicated and keeping the middle class in the dark as the Republican leadership..

Once again, the MSM is serving the needs of the Democrats.. It's only happenstance that it also serves the needs of the Republicans.

You can bet that if the MSM figured out a way to slam the Right w/o implicating the Left, the MSM would do it in a stone cold minute...

If people actually understood our tax code and how it disproportionately benefits those at the top, I think they would be quite angry.

Very impressed w/ the host of the show, Sonali Kolhatkar, as well. Gotta love SF radio. We don't get radio shows like that here in the Midwest ... :)

Looks like it's not going to be his Anti-Israel/Pro-Iran stance that is going to derail Hagel's SecDef nomination.

Why don't Democrats put CW's ideas into actual legislation..

I mean, we hear about these things in "Wouldn't It Be Nice" Op-Ed pieces..

Why not show the American people that Democrats are SERIOUS about these proposals and put them into legislation so they can be debated and passed???

I have a feeling that the answer to this question is the same answer to the question I posed in #09..

hehehehehehe

What can I say.. My bucket list is pretty much done..

Still waiting for First Contact, though... :D

You ding both Republicans AND Democrats for their fantasy accountings and their political machinations...

Well done...

I have one simple question.

If the tax code is so unfair to the middle class and favors the rich, WHY didn't Democrats change things when they had a LOCK on the executive and legislative branches of government??

Answer: Because they really DON'T want to change it because they ARE the rich..

Isn't it "wee-gant"???

I cannot imagine higher praise than listening to an interview of me during "TEOTWAWKI" (The End Of The World As We Know It)...

Heh.

-CW

Just like it was when Pelosi couldn't corral the votes.....

Right????

I am going to try and sit still long enough to listen to the interview.. I still have about 2.5 hours before the world ends.. :D

Thanks for the kind words!

RE: Plan B and Boehner, nobody's quite sure what it's going to mean. It's a sign of weakness for him, that he can't corral the votes in his own party, but what that means for the whole negotiations is a mystery at this point.

I think it means the chances of a grand bargain just got smaller, and the chances of punting the can down the road just got greater. But I could be wrong, we'll see how it plays out in the next few days.

That was a wonderful interview! And, almost a full half hour, too! It’s nice to know that there are news outlets out there and interviewers who obviously appreciate a great guest when they have one in their midst. It was also nice that they linked to your HP article and to CW.com.

As for the Holiday Pledge Drive and kittens and such ... well, that's what their comments section is for. :)

By the way, what does it mean that the speaker pulled his ‘Plan B’ bill for lack of votes?

Heh. Hey, when you give me a whole half-hour, I'm eventually going to go off into the weeds...
