I don't like to hear talk about "balancing the budget" from Democrats, though, unless they ALSO talk about dismantling bad actor corporations and seizing their assets for the common good, fair taxation of the rich, and going after all the war criminals and war profiteers in this junta and GETTING OUR MONEY BACK!

"Balanced" on WHOSE back? They run up a $10 TRILLION deficit with a corporate oil war and multiple tax cuts for the super-rich. and all the Democrats can say is that that is "irresponsible" and "we'll balance the budget"?

That's not what FDR did. We will need to run a deficit for a long time, if the poor and middle class are going to recover from this disastrous regime. You can't do what's needed on a balanced budget. They'll end up looting Social Security. They are ALREADY borrowing against it, and looting government pension funds. Poor and middle class Americans are going to end up with no jobs, no pensions, no supports, exorbitant medical and other living costs, more gas gouging, crumbling infrastructure, hospitals and emergency services rationed, and God knows what all. What these goddamned fascists have done IS DISASTROUS. There is no other word for it. And you can't revert to pre-Bush thinking to get us out of it. Clintonomics--hurtng the poor! They started with the tax code re-write and looting the Savings and Loan institutions, and they haven't stopped--and we have to confront it head on. This is CORPORATE RULE!

Now I don't know what kind of voting system they have in Montana--but if it's like the crap we have everywhere else now, Bushite corporations "counting" all the votes with TRADE, SECRET PROPRIETARY programming code, and virtually no audit/recount controls--then Tester has to be careful what he says, and toady to likes of Wally O'Dell (Bush-Cheney campaign chair and major fundraiser who, until recently, headed Diebold), and Howard Ahmanson (who funded the Diebold spinoff, ES&S, and who also gave one million dollars to the extremist 'christian' Chaledon Foundation, which touts the death penalty for homosexuals, among other things.) You see what a spot this puts tester in? He has to "balance the budget" to save the banks and Wall Street, and protect the investments of millionaires and billionaires--not the rest of us--and guess who's going to pay for it? I enjoyed reading about his cat fight with Conrad Burns about which one of them is corrupt (which Tester won, claws down), but I'd like to see him take on the fraudulent corporate election system and its fraudulent 'results" with equal fervor. Because that's the heart of the problem. They don't let real populists--real advocates of the people--and real patriots "win." A real patriot these days must address the entities that have destroyed our sovereignty as a people, by taking away our right to TRANSPARENT elections, and by trade deals that benefit global corporate predators, at the expense of the American poor and middle class. But I know he can't do that--or he'll be written off the list of "acceptable" Democrats. So there we are.

I love to see LIFE in the populace! Go, Montanans! Be rude to Burns! He and his criminal pals in DC deserve a lot more! And get out there and fight for your right to vote in transparent, verifiable elections! I'll all for you! And if you can get Tester's votes counted properly, then you can hold HIS feet to the fire! That's what it's all about!
