Unfortunately, it's not the idiot and liar who touts the same tired ass republican talking points on Healthcare reform ("Socialism!" "Death Panels!") in the Free Press' new weekly point/counterpoint column featuring Dem Jill Alper and conservidiot John Truscott. It's us, the fools who continue to subscribe to the Free Press and instead of cutting edge opinion get lame ass blow jobs to the tea party and its village idiots. Truscott and his lame ass platitudes was the best they could do? Really? Good to see that the Free Press is just like any other corporation: decided lack of leadership, pandering to the lowest common denominator, and profit at the expense of integrity. Kudos! Not to be outdone, the Detroit News had its usual "gee, how far up corporate fanny can we get our noses" piece this week concerning Obama's call for more careful monitoring of corporate regulation. Never mind that corporations are enjoying record profits or that (with the possible exception of Elizabeth Warren's consumer commission) the Obama administration's corporate reform had all the force of a gentle poke in the ribs--there's too much of it. Their idiocy would be kind of a melancholy funny were it not so anti-working class American. Less regulation will not result in either more jobs or better pay. The one thing it will do, though, is allow corporations to laugh all the way to the bank over how they suckered in conservidiots to do their bidding for them with nothing--zip, zero, zilch, nada--to show for their bidding.
