ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

BLAGO! BLAGO! BLAGO! CARS! CARS! CARS! If you've been living in a cave this week, then tune in to the Sunday Funnies to catch up! The blogosphere is ripe with speculation of "What did Team Obama know and when did they know it" when Obama said he didn't have any contact with the beleaguered indicted and arrested Governor from Illinois but his main guy Axelrod said they've been "having discussions" a week ago. Looks like Senate Candidate 5, now known as US Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., might have been "having discussions" to raise $1,000,000 for Blago's re-election or something. It's all so tawdry, isn't it? Ya know, it's not just Blago. It's Eliot Spitzer in NY. In Ohio they got MARC DANN in a "sting" and also Cleveland's Dem Chairman and Cuyahoga Commish JIMMY DiMORA among others. OH YEAH they already got KWAMI KILPATRICK in Detroit, didn't they? And don't forget CHARLIE "Where's my General" RANGEL, too. It's more like how DON SEIGELMAN describes it: The Politization of the DA's Office. It's happening across the country, kinda like a POLICE STATE, ain't it? Funny how Fitz said the wiretaps "were court ordered". HA! Like he didn't know he had a MONTH to get one to stop "a terrorist" or anything else. And EVERY wiretap is "court ordered" per the FISA CAVE IN. We don't really know what ISN'T a "legal" wiretap, do we? Get out your fresh load of bricks for BOB "I hate unions" CORKER on Face the Bob and Fake News. Save some bricks for the CEO ROUNDTABLE on Meet the Dave (yes David Gregory gets the post at Press The Meat and they give him like a dozen guests so he doesn't have to talk too much). Then save a breakfast donut for JOHN MCCAIN on This Snufagupolis. On the CAR front, look for Michigan Guv JENNIFER GRANHOLM also on Meet the Dave. CARL LEVIN will Face the Bob opposite CORKER and DEBBIE STABENOW will try to reach the Faux News viewership, who are convinced the UAW is responsible for the economic meltdown. Look for SHERROD BROWN of Ohio on Face the Bob too, where Ohio has been taking it on the chin since NAFTA passed. Wolfie has UAW prez RON GETTELFINGER to tell everyone how deluded Corker really is. After you're footballed out stay tuned to 60 Minutes for a segment with BARNEY FRANK. Then tune to Ring of Fire Radio with an EXCELLENT interview with ROBERT WEISSMAN about the Ten Worst Corporations of 2008 and RICK HIND of Greenpeace on the failure of the bu$h administration to act on the 911 Commission's recomendations to secure US chemical plants. The Brick TeeVee crew is BAFFLED why The Big Three (or two and a half) have been chastised for weeks yet the Big Money Banks get $TRILLIONS$ of taxpayer money, no questions asked with ABSOLUTELY NO OVERSIGHT. We point you to MarketWatch's PAUL B. FARRELL Wall Street's 'Disaster Capitalism for Dummies': 14 reasons Main Street loses big while Wall Street sabotages democracy for some clarity. Farrell concludes, "Yes, officially America is still a democracy. We have enough signs and rituals to support that illusion. But the truth is America has become a plutocracy run by and for the wealthy. And since Wall Street's Disaster Capitalism coup de grace, we are rapidly morphing into a dangerous new government." Yes We Can?
