A couple days ago you said the Brown election was 'a local thing' and now it's Wall Street?

and I do agree that 'anti-Wall Street' people thinking this is a good thing is crazy. I am pro-Wall Street and in a much broader sense pro-Capitalism so I am thrilled with the Supreme Court's decision. Just as those who are anti-Wall Street and anti-Capitalism would be against. This obviously is why Obama and people like you have come out so strongly against.

Dell, I have never said the Brown election was a local thing. And I have already corrected your mistake once. Why do you repeat it? I said I thought the Brown election was about the economy and Washington, and more than once.

Well, I am unabashedly pro-capitalism, make enough money off Wall Street, and being firmly against this decision has nothing at all to do with who you voted for in the last election, in my opinion. And, I've not seen anybody who is against this opinion say they are anti-business or anti-Wall Street ???

You made an assumptive jump there I just can't follow.

Who exactly says they are anti-business? Other than maybe Scuds?

Dell did, above. I don't share his assumption.

no you said, "But the folks in Mass are saying it was all just local politics, she wasn't liked nor endorsed by the Dem party in Mass, the machine didn't rev up the call centers for her, etc."

So I guess I'm correcting your correction.

Uh, no. "Folks in Mass" are not me, Dell We were talking about what people were saying about why the vote went the way it did. All I did was mention that, and a couple other things - right?

I have said I think it's jobs, economy. More than once. Go find those posts.

So - stop saying "I say" that the Brown election is a local thing. That's what some Dem organizers in Mass. said. Not me!

c'mon no one in Mass was saying that. You and Dem organizers were hoping that's what they were saying. Do you know a large portion voted for Brown because they don't want Obama's Health Care crap? Contrary to what Dem Organizers said this had very little to do with local politics.

Lets face the facts, liberals are aghast at this decision because one of their primary tactics is to beat up on the evil, rich corporations. Now they wont be as willing to use class warfare and populism for fear of retribution. It may actually force them to deal with the issues on which they often have very tenuous positions. What they should be more worried about is who fills the money vacuum between when George Soros dies and GBBob becomes a billionaire?
