Aye of Newt

The Interpretation of Dreams*
Pre and post Freud.(Nietszche/Jung)***
Projection of terms/Slash/Tools.
The difference between ends and means seems lost.

Speaking of lost, find Armey's only regret is "calling for" government shutdown before doing it.(My original source was MSNBC, but haven't located it.)
Well? Close enough and speaking of intent...not exactly.**
But is that Alinsky, or both ends against the middle or "authentically dishonest"?

Footnote: This was originally intended to hold some comments for later research, but worked out in the end, excessive links aside.
Label: Post-Nietzschean-Manichean-Platonics.

The Last Try Pod

Well, it was going to be the Last Word[*], but we know how that works.
So the Last Try Pod is more of the Tetrahedron.
A GPS of sorts, with the a try angle of pacs.

So it had to be in the House of Representatives, which the Republicans control. "But we couldn’t go if they didn’t let us come," the source said. "You can’t hold the speech in the lobby or in the parking lot. And you’re not going to get network coverage if you hold it at George Mason University."

The Club of Association

Or Dis Member* meant, and not just another excuse to MoveOn,
but the last two links in the *** segment,the club of association) refer to some efforts at dealing in a more pragmatic and incremental way. It is still a rhetorical and organizational Heckuva Kitchen counter. Speaking of Moxy.
It is sometimes an awkward counter.

[More on the alphabet soup of the Network Theory: ABC, Anti-Billy Club... maybe that poses legal problems, especially for a network. Before I continue with my thinking an in liu of not giving it away, maybe I will develop this legally off line. Till that happens there is no harm in continuing to list the...(careful now) R and D under Research and Development. R's will be the likes of Bills or Wills on the Right(Research) and D's will be the likes of Bills and Wills of the Left. Now just like Republicans may be linked to the Tea Party for better or worse(and that is for whom to say/), the Development side will be more inclusive and may not be as sensitive about labels.]

Bottom Line?

Who gets it?
The line in question is in the last link or post:
"subset of sovereignty or tangle"
But I wonder if Michael Hudson really gets it? Post G-20?
We all know it is about who gets it(materially), but some realize there is a question of values(spiritually) but where we mix things up regards the democracy and economics and a devaluing of politics, and the powers that be.(the people and their relationships) In this regard, I mix the allegory of the egg(Humpty) versus the wall(Dumpty) and working on lowering both rather than breaking or knocking both down. Keeping in mind, the pragmatic and incremental, and the cooperative and the competitive dynamics of the whole process. Given that there is more of a bubble problem than the wall problem when it comes to numbers and the creative derivative situation, it seems that a leak is in order, and that might be in the form of tax reform. AKA: Entitlement reform. (not really AKA, more like biofeedback* wise)
*simply a very complex dynamics
[To sum it up, there is a very interesting exchange on Face the Nation where a new congressman (Rep.-Elect Mike Kelly) presents an interesting "reality": "running" the country in the black (sounds like the country is in business **) vis a vis a gory alley.(a flip-flopped allegory) In an aside it is truly more than about left and right, Democrat and Republican, for it seems the Democrats have been acknowledged to be split in their approach including Obama in terms of being accused of being for or against business(it is not that simple) but the representatives in this exchange are "running" from their party in regards to responsibility,(Michelle Bachmann & Kelly) as they may not have voted along the lines of what their party has, in fact, neither did the Democrats in regard to the compromise on the Bush tax cut extensions. In this case being on the same side, does not make both right or wrong, but only both being there for different reasons.]

Between I Rock and a Hard Place

I don't know which is which but at least there is a fight.(or vice verse us)
There has been much silliness out there, but the message from Massachusetts seems to be about the lack of change.

Obama aside(I think he will get it and in fact has a message), people are not as incremental and pragmatic or nuanced, and independents and moderates, not to mention the Democratic base feel left behind.

Rather than blogOn, I will leave this as framed.

[On the other hand or rock or hard place...or nuanced might be the proper place to mirror*: a fair and balanced fight, and no faux crack.(TPM:Obama/Hardball:Dean/The Nation:Greider)(See labels and comment).]

*oops- see "framed" for hard place.

[And some will whine. EXTREME RHETORIC ALERT for link one of the previous three. While in all actuality, I can agree that people are dying, and there are forces alligned against the common good to blame, I cannot use the Hitler analogy that LaRouche utilizes, though the results do border on treason, it is for the people to decide not a determination that can be legally formed. Glass-Steagall is probably one solution, and the offensive PDF probably summarizes the deal accurately, and the only good thing that can come from this hyper-rhetoric is if it works, but it should not make too many people happy that it does. There is also something about the table which links what seems to be a common cause of both La Rouche and Tea Party supporters(at least of the more pragmatic and incremental Libertarian strain).]

Tea Party Down Grade

and the Undo- Everything House of Reprehensibles
(Note the counter-linkage or weaving of sources.)

Reading of the Day and relevant fn.
One great thing about Obama's primary victory is now we know that's not true. This is the modern Republican Party. It turns out they were the ones who adopted Malcolm X's slogan, "By any means necessary." As disgusted as I am with S&P's decision to downgrade U.S. debt, the ratings agency took the unusual step of calling out the GOP in its press release, predicting future fiscal peril "because the majority of Republicans in Congress continue to resist any measure that would raise revenues," Sen. John Kerry was right to call it the "Tea Party downgrade" on "Meet the Press" Sunday. They have now made clear they'll wreck the economy as long as they can wreck Obama's presidency. And we have no way to know that Clinton's history with right-wing saboteurs would have enabled her to fight more effectively.

Simpson-Bowles and S&P Re: Revenue.
Hennessey’s assessment of Simpson-Bowles is even more puzzling. As I’ve noted before, Simpson-Bowles raised about $2 trillion in new revenues and cut defense spending by about $800 billion. The plan Obama proposed to Boehner raises half as much revenue and, from what I’m told, includes about half as much in defense cuts. It’s hard to see how that qualifies as "to the left" of Simpson-Bowles.


The fn. above discusses a narrative that is lacking in Obama's rhetoric. The actual recalcitrance of the Republican party, the lack of a filibuster proof congress, not to mention the media as we know it(Koch Brothers), argues more balanced narrative than Blame Obama. The Obama Inaugural was our calling.
(NFRY)

Candidate Obama was nuanced and President Obama is pragmatic and incremental, the message is clear.

[More Meet the Press.]

Green Span on Degree of Certainty: the only thing certain is change, and that the Right won't.

I mean Greenspan: "this deficit problem that is out there is a lot larger than we calculated. the actual numbers employed by those calculating the deficits are based on a level of economic activity, which we are not acheiving." Rather than translate IMHO the Greenspan quote, there is FIXING NEWS(as opposed to breaking) as the President addresses the downgrade now. (Remarks by the President: and previous remarks)

Progress is Global

...and incremental, pragmatic, and needs to reflect diverse views and dynamics. It also should put the health care progress in proper perspective, as there are both employment and international consequences to changes, which congress must be in on addressing. Despite the fears of some, this is not a dictatorship or even a one party system but a triumvirate for the tetrahedron of the people.

Value Posted.

Pro Log:
I must preface, that I caught a lot of the reaction along with snippets of the speech on MSNBC(which was no bed of roses) before I finally listened to the whole speech while writing (interspersed) the second[*] blog post. Somewhere embedded is the video of Mathews with Ron Reagan Jr. where he is bating Karen Finney. So if you run into it, let me know, but I have an index of priority links, the first being the speech[**], which I think is the most important in history. Yet. OK, maybe not so melodramatically but solemnly considered to be in the balance. Meaning: if these pragmatic and incremental tactics are not strategically implemented, there will be a much harder and dangerous, Rube Goldberg, if not broken with a peace busted, Rubic's Cube. Any opposition must address all the concerns of our puzzle, not that some pressure will not be welcomed to tweak the navigator and the crew.]
