MSNBC's Dylan Ratigan is mad as hell about the U.S. financial crisis--and he's not gonna take it anymore!
While convening a roundtable discussion on the market meltdown on his eponymous MSNBC show on Tuesday, Ratigan exploded.
"We've got a real problem!" an exasperated Ratigan shouted. "This is a mathematical fact! Tens of trillions of dollars are being extracted from the United States of America. Democrats aren't doing it, Republicans aren't doing it. An entire integrated system, financial system, trading system, taxing system, that was created by both parties over a period of two decades is at work on our entire country right now. And we're sitting here arguing about whether we should do the $4 trillion plan that kicks the can down the road for the president for 2017, or burn the place to the ground, both of which are reckless, irresponsible, and stupid."
"I'm sorry to lose my temper," he continued. "But, I tell you what, I've been coming on TV for three years doing this, and the fact of the matter is that there's a refusal on both the Democratic and the Republican side of the aisle to acknowledge the mathematical problem, which is that the United States of America is being extracted."
Later, on the show's website, Ratigan called it his "epic 'Network' moment."
The clip of the entire rant is worth watching, which you can (and should) do.
The Superman president concept. We don't have a superman in the WH. Kennedy and Reagan came closest to that.
We need a president with integrity and guts, who's just crazy enough to try fighting the establishment via a direct appeal to the people. Ron Paul has the integrity and is probably crazy enough, not sure if he has the guts. It also takes a special kind of ability, or stage presence, to get the people of the US on your side and keep them there during the tough transition to a Constitutional Republic. Reagan and Kennedy had it. Note that both were shot.
Such a president would be fighting the MSM and both parties. He'd have to have massive public support to pull it off. Tea Party+++
There has got to be a way for collaboration from time to time. There are ways, too. It is called a few rules of respect for personal communications.
Otherwise, we all crash together similar to other chit-chat forums. I consulted my famous eight ball and asked a simple question: Can't we all get along. The answer was revealing, too. "You have asked the wrong question again."
