    Here’s a descent article on Pete Peterson, who has taken some heat from the left as of late.

    It’s worth contrasting Peterson against the vast majority of our resident trolls. Peterson doesn’t come to the table with his own, unique set of “facts” that are held to be true despite the available evidence.

    Rightwingers have responded to Federal Judge Susan Bolton’s injunction barring enforcement of Arizona’s anti-immigrant law in the usual way they respond to anyone they disagree with — by threatening the judge’s life.

    Kill, kill, kill! That’s the rightwing answer to all philosophical disagreements. If you don’t think in lockstep with them, they want to kill you! Sounds an awful lot like Hitlerism and Stalinism to me.

    Many third-world countries suffer from the scourge of rightwing gunmen who kidnap and murder cops, judges, priests, and nuns. The saga of Reagan-funded rightwing death squads in Central America during the 1980s comes to mind. Why would anyone want that in America?

    How many innocent people do rightwingers have to kill before they’re discredited?

    Don,

    Don’t be fooled by Peterson’s apparent “reasonableness”. His freak show is a well cloaked all out assault on our social safety net. It is nothing but a right wing solution in search of a problem.

    Read some Jamie Galbraith or Dean Baker about Pete Peterson and deficit hawkery in general. Then get back to us. Thank you.

    @ 11

    “Don’t be fooled by Peterson’s apparent “reasonableness”.”

    I didn’t say that I agree with Peterson. Indeed, I’m very much in Galbraith’s camp in terms of the debate.

    The point is, with Peterson, one can have an actual debate. You can’t do that with our resident trolls, most of whom are given to making shit up as they go along or simply ignoring relevant facts that are inconvenient.

    lets see, chelsea marries a jew. and the typical jew at that. not only an investment banker who made his millions at goldman sachs, but his father, typically, did prson time for fraud. how wonderfully jewish. ya think bill told her if she marries a jew the media is likely to never pry their jewish controlled eyes into her private life? coincidence? i think not.

    @13 Why should white christofascist republicans have a monopoly on looting?

    i’m not arguing with that rog, and i’m not begrudging the jews getting their share of the loot, i was only pointing out what was probably good advice by bill (they didnt call him slic willy for nothing) as to how to avoid a lot of media scrutiny (ya ever see a hollywood producer indicted for cocaine use, sexual assault aka the casting couch?) they have built in immunity.

    Apparently being a member of Congress means you are a member of elective office…

    Washington state Democratic Party Vice Chairwoman Sharon Smith said Cordero, a California native who moved to the Valley about four years ago, is a former Army intelligence analytst and veteran of Operation Desert Storm. It will be his first run for elective office.
