Must see tv

It does NOT look like this:

"On Hannity Tonight - V. P. Dick Cheney: A Hannity exclusive- So what advice does Dick Cheney have for Obama on taxes, tea parties, bailouts and business?"

**Snort** Yes, folks, that's THE Dick Cheney, one of the men responsible for bringing us to this sad state of affairs! Yeah, let's ask HIM for advice! Holy fucking God on a ferris wheel, this takes "stupid" to entirely new levels.

I think it's time for all of us to stop watching any and all Fox programing, and I mean everything that Fox has on the idiot box.

News, sports, game shows, reality shows, comedies, everything. National stations and all local stations.

If enough people boycott Fox their advertisers will feel the pinch and will pull their sponsorship of Fox's programing and will either have to change direction or go off the air.

Now Dick's really slumming. He's been booed off CNN et al and has to resort to Hannity to speak to his minions.

Wait.

Need to be serious here for one moment.

From the BigFinance, BigAuto, BigPonzi, BigGOPFAIL, we have entered an extraordinarily strange era of "Only the Failures can save us."

They are kept safe, and well-fed, secure, well-paid, and are NOT being held accountable for a single foul deed.

There is a very, very serious trend being formed here, and it is part of the real threat. It goes hand-in-hand with the "Let's look forward, and not behind" mentality, as well.

Rep. Harmon's little adventure with NSA and Abu Gonzales is not anomalous in big, big, village within the Beltway.

This is straight-up Class Warfare, and the Banksters fired the first shots, and continue on a really twisted, yet brilliant offensive.

The narrative is already this:

"These Geniuses were the ones who got us into this mess in the first place, and the ONLY people who can get us out of it, so we MUST retain them, and give them fat, tax-payer-funded bonuses; AND we cannot Legally punish them, or even investigate them, in spite of their enormous, and possibly criminal failures, because they feel really bad, and are really serious about fixin' it up... Never-mind that we just laid-off more that 10,000 other, lesser, yet more honest and less ambitious employees who were equally as brilliant. Don't want anything BAD to happen to that Global Economy, now-- wouldja?"

And the President is saying, "Green shoots," and the Wall Street Execs smile and say, "Optimism!" and CNBC eats it up, and Washington Post and the rest report what their buddies at CNBC say, and somehow everybody seems to wag their heads and agree. CONFIDENCE!!11t!!!

If this were a baseball game, the Financial Crisis is actually only half-way through the fourth inning. Credit cards and Commercial Real Estate are on deck and no DH.
