Wolf Blitzer, Finance Capital, The Cockroach and American Political-Economy

During a 9/16/08; at 4:16 pm Wolf Blitzer in the Situation Room interview with Governor David Paterson of New York, on the consequence of finance-capital and Republican corruption as shown by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and the instability of A.I.G a cockroach scurried across the monitor-prop of the Situation Room.

The question is when a cockroach scurries across the Situation decor during a Wolf Blitzer interview on the collapse of American Political-Economy, symbolism isn't lost. The mythical cockroach and it's plague-like legend encapsulates the Apocalypse and it's political-economy default harbinger.

But there is another answer. Wolf Blitzer and CNN evidently feeling the economic squeeze are unable to afford the services of an exterminator and that effectively sums up finance-capital in American Political-Economy.

Reagan Democrats, Blue Collar Workers and Lehman Brothers

Did anyone think anything positive would come as the result of the infamous Macomb County, Reagan Democrats phenomena?

When Blue Collar workers, legatees of Eugene Debs mocked their history and lapped out of the Reaganomics doggy bowl at the historical feet of Wall Street.

When Blue Collar workers ignore the reality of "right to work".

When Blue Collar workers allow historical Wall Street to define"what is a Labor Union".

Then a Lehman Brothers and it's $640 Billion contradiction reminds everyone what was so very wrong about the Reagan Democrats obscenity.

John McCain's Judgement and Swiftboat Politics

John McCain's explanation and defense of his swiftboat politics and campaign against his Democratic rival Barack Obama is : Because Obama hasn't done Town Hall Meetings with him.

There are two peculiarities about this example of John McCain's judgement

• The fawning and insidious corporate media hasn't pointed out the petulant absurdity of the judgement.
• That John McCain has disavowed his April 2008; pledge to run a honorable campaign minus the Willie Horton gambit of Bush family politics.

Barack Obama and the Democratic Party seem to naively ignore the maxim that politics and it's activity is that of contrast and antagonisms.

Lynn Forester de Rothschild and Apostasy

With her face stretched and shiny from too much Gin and Vodka look, Lynn Forester de Rothschild took to the stage on 9/17/08; and committed apostasy.

Democrat Lynn Forester de Rothschild. A Hillary Clinton supporter, fund raiser and Democratic Party Platform committee member declared she was a Trojan Horse ala' Joseph Lieberman and not only did she support reactionaries McCain and Palin but she said she held them in reverence.

Now this apostasy has to be seen in it's true opportunistic context. Lynn Forester de Rothschild is terrified of the Barack Obama Presidency. Because of the issue of taxes and it's settling of accounts. Obama promises to increase taxation on the wealthy.

Lynn Forester de Rothschild has obviously been imperiled by the economic developments of late, the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy for one. Considering the reactionaries McCain and Palin intend to continue the Bush tax cuts on the rich, she apostatized herself.

The scurry of rats abandoning ship.

Ron Paul, Ralph Nader and Third Party Politics

There is this glaring problem with third party politics at the Presidential Level. It is A Quixotic enterprise and it's delusionary practice as articulated by Ron Paul and Ralph Nader is seriously diversionary.

If Ron Paul and Ralph Nader have a problem with the two party monopoly on American Politics and it's voting consequence. Then whatever happened to taking to task the insanity of voters who consistently undermine their economic foundation while indulging in the fraudulent political action of social resentment, guns, religion and family.

Sarah Palin, Sexism and Swinging Pompoms

When John McCain made the pimp move by choosing Sarah Palin as his Republican Vice-Presidential runner. He got the Stereo-typical cheerleader with one omission, Sarah Palin is a Brunette.

Because Sarah Palin on the stump is all gimme a J, gimme a Mc. Now that is sexism at it's unconscionable worst. this condescension, this relegation of a female Vice-Presidential nominee to swinging pompoms and touting the biography of proverbial masculine supremacy.

So whats with the Sarah Palin line of putting the Governor's jet on e-bay? Are we to suppose that Sarah Palin proposes putting the Air Force One Fleet on e-Bay as correction to a $10 trillion deficit?

Sarah Palin, Evangelical Christianity and Political Gullibility

Sarah Palin has not energized those who now express affinity for a John McCain Presidency. Instead Sarah Palin has simply been the excuse, the legitimizing justification for reaction and it's backwardness.

Evangelical Christianity and it's resentment expression requires misery and it's sham moral critique. In other words the Evangelical Christian expression needs the political gullibility medium to satisfy it's neurotic pinings and that is why Republicans have found success and it hasn't just been at the expense of Democratic hypocrisy.

A Pit Bull with Lip Stick, Sarah Palin and the Politics of Being A Bitch

What sort of woman compares herself to an animal, a pit bull with lipstick, a dog. So assuming the dog must be female and a female dog is a Bitch. It then means Sarah Palin prides on being the Bitch practicing it's politics.

If Sarah Palin is to be Vice-President of the United States an achievement of American femininity. Then it's down right reckless and repulsive to all Mothers, wives, Sisters and Daughters that a self -described Bitch Pit Bull is exploiting Hillary's eighteen million cracks.

The Civil War Narrative, Base Politics and John McCain Pimping Paris Hilton

Why hasn't the Daughters of the Confederacy and all those groups, historical societies and intelligentsia who are the gate keepers of the Civil War narrative come out in opposition to the applied blasphemy and derision of this political season, Presidential politics and it's mockery of the relative sacrifices exerted to realize a perfected union.

Reaction, Radical Politics, Base Politics and the Scranton, Pennsylvania gambit not surprisingly is the opportunity of the moment.

Observing Barack Obama, the Embody of the Black Experience walk the tight rope and it's restraint and demands of the better man taking the higher ground with the contrast of the presumptuous John McCain pimping Paris Hilton, Brittany Spears, Cindy McCain and Sarah Palin as means to the Presidency. Mocking the Hallowed earth of Gettysburg and the desperation of Harper's Ferry.

Flint, Michigan and David Dicks "Immoral Self-Expression"

Flint, Michigan is an industrial wasteland. A graveyard slotted with exclamatory tombstones and headstones proclaiming the demise of analog, steel and fire industry. to talk about Flint, Michigan is to note a dreg of 19th century industry, a footnote in Proletarian paradox.

In light of all this, certain brains and minds have found the space and margins to focus on legislating attire in Flint. So with the dead-end reality of it's denizens a stark violent fact. David Dicks, Flint Michigan Police Chief is chomping at something his newt brain has slithered upon "Immoral self-expression". Which as usually is the case, a diversion at the expense of the real immorality, an economy totally unable to function and provide it's citizens political economic direction.

Mothers with babies is diapers run risk of 93 days to a year in a Flint jail and fines up to $500 because if underwear is seen in Flint, Michigan the dress code goose steppers will declare it "Immoral self-expression".

The Black Experience and the Barack Obama Candidacy

Whose critique and analysis of the Black Experience and condition is credible hence legitimate to coalesce the dynamo of action? That general acceptance of an analysis for it's most basic points to trickle down to the rudimentary comprehension and acceptance of it's members---Whose?

Is it the metaphysical mumblings of the millennialist zealot?

Is it the faddist radical?

Has the Barack Obama candidacy satisfied this?

I find that once again as such is always the case with life attempting an exponent of potential. We stand again at the crossroads. Being buffeted into immobility by the cross winds of reaction.

The Independent Vote and the Latent Racism of Reagan Democrats

What is the mechanism for accountability in the Independent Vote abstraction within Presidential Politics?

Without ideology and political unity the Independent Vote is crass infantile antic, a naive gimmick as therapeutic vent for the latent racism of Reagan Democrats.

Democrats and Republicans are incentive challenged to respond to the inherent contradiction of the Independent Vote as an objective mechanism of accountability.

Instead contrary to the fraudulent advocacy by Lou Dobbs the Independent Vote reinforces conservatism as mere reactionary wedge.

Human Political Economy and Criminal Deviancy

If the panoramic development of human political economy is stimulated by strategic factors of what in principle , in deed and with all regard is criminal and morally deviant, then why shouldn't instances of crime in it's petty mundane expression as it is experienced at the national-social level also stimulate the progress of political economy?

Propaganda of social behavior repetitiously detonates the fiat, that economical crime is destructive upon society. Charts are presented showing how deviancy deprives society of "X" amounts of wealth.

But the fact of the matter is the destructiveness of deviancy has an economical impact on society that is positive in it's stimulation and accentuation of progressive development. Deviancy during times of peace is like unto the economic quickening of War in the times of strife.

Take for instance the United States, deviance quantumly and qualitatively has enhanced and tremendously developed it's political economy. From the crimes against humanity of slavery and the moral crimes of it's Colonizer pioneer-settlers upon the Native Americans, to the relative contemporary lawlessness of it's deprived and marginalized elements. The U.S. and it's manifest destiny has clearly reaped the rewards of it's incipient and inherent criminality a million times over.

If the standard of living of a society and it's foundational prosperity equals it's realized economic potential. Meaning the accumulative potential, and it's realizational means, then any factor which induces and stimulates it's progressive development, has to be of benefit and for the greater good of society as a whole.

Crime, deviance and the entire relative structure it effects supports in extension the formative and substantial existence of human political economy in it's particular and general sense.

This post and it's position it defends is not to be construed as an apology for malaise of Crime and Deviancy. This position is simply a rigor in contra with those hypocritical opportunistic-ravings purportedly in defense of human innocence.

A rigorous and stern critique' of human society and culture will reveal that deviancy in it's complexities and the raw sophistication of crime is an unmistakable fact of the more developed and advanced political economics of the World and that is not an inexplicable anomaly but simply the derived symbiosis of the political economy in question.

The Mediocre Snob Lev Grossman and THE NET

What is wrong with the comment-phenomena on THE NET? Well to the mediocre snob Lev Grossman it is a negative on the economy of speech on THE NET.

In a July 21, 2008; Time essay Lev Grossman was once again channeling quintessential vacuity. The argument that the canaille on THE NET are some how to blame or should be indicted for coarsening it's speech is laughable as Lev Grossman and his writings.

The Democracy Dialectic, China and Value Speculation

The Communist Party of China in it's Deng Xiaoping revisionist milieu does have a contribution to the Democracy dialectic.

Mao Zedong once declared let a 1000 flowers bloom which is Mao Zedong thought speak for diversity of speech, thought and dialectical synthesis with caveat that it is philosophically materialist. Deng Xiaoping's revision once postulated, opening the window to let in air also lets in flies as parameter of democracy dialectic.


This question of China Democracy and the "Human Rights" polemics as it is raised in the Abu Ghraib, Gitmo, The Global War on Terror and the Iraq War contradiction tableau---should be easy for the Deng Xiaoping revisionist practice to respond to and it is simple. Whatever speech practiced should not be that opiate indulgence of reinventing the wheel, value speculation employs as it's classic diversionary tactic.

Reinventing the wheel philosphically is simple. It is that ubiquitous practice of resurrecting discredited and idealistic thought as a coping mechanism, a distortion of the economy of humanness. Which is commonly touted as free speech in the value speculation dialectic.

Political-Economy, Accountability and "Creative Capitalism"

There is this idea being pushed by Billionaires and Millionaires, " Creative Capitalism".

Political Economy polemics has been strange in a way whether it's materialist dialectical critique or the business as usual of relative speculative-value. Because without an objective mechanism for accountability that is divorced from the class and privilege exemption what does Political-Economy as conceptual structure mean.

Secondly. If social recognizable facts through the governmental medium acknowledges the need for philanthropic and charitable services by religious based entities. Why then isn't it appropriate for government which if we are to take American Political-Economy on it's conceptual value means "We the People..." to take on those functions?

Dr. Carnell Cooper and The Violence Intervention Program !!!

Few outside the immediate Baltimore area have heard of The Violence Intervention Program(V.I.P.).

Not many people outside the medical community especially Trauma-Surgery have heard of

Dr. Carnell Cooper. A Black, Baltimore, Maryland Surgeon. Who after 19 years as a Trauma-Surgeon, saving violently injured young Black people realized his Trauma-Surgery expertise was being used at the end result and consequences of certain negative colliding determinants.

Dr.Carnell Cooper started The Violence Intervention Program which specifically focuses of the issue of how to merge and fuse young Black people with Jobs because Dr. Cooper correctly understands that the question of Black violence is a Political-Economic one.

It has been historically expedient and insidious to critique Black social an criminal deviancy simply on the social-value construct at the expense of a political-economic base that enables the progressive evolution of social-values to even come into existence.

Dr Carnell Cooper's Violence Intervention Program and it's focus on Jobs attempts to correct that.
