What is so awful about "The Post-American World"?

Nothing for Fareed Zakaria freaks, appeasers of tyrants, apologists for muslim extremists and that sort, including brain dead liberals and other dhimmi type Americans

I haven't read his book and have no intention of reading it.

What can you say good about his book?

Fareed Zakaria is as fos as a Christmas turkey, nay, even more so fos!!

Sooooo, what is your opinion of Che Guevara??

 

[IPorange]

I haven't read it or heard of it before. The whole romanticized image of Guevara is pretty repulsive to me. Who he really was (which is quite different than how he is commonly portrayed) is absolutely evil in my opinion. Most Guevara t-shirt wearing folks are fairly ignorant to him.

Well at least we are agreed on that.

Another prime example of a romanticized version of reality is Nelson Mandela who does not deserve the high esteem in which he is carried here in America.

Back to AIG and their Democrat Party enablers.

"The supremacy of finance capital over all other forms of capital means the predominance of the rentier and of the financial oligarchy; it means that a small number of financially “powerful” states stand out among all the rest. The extent to which this process is going on may be judged from the statistics on emissions, i.e., the issue of all kinds of securities."
- Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

Sen. Dodd's list of donors reads like a who's who of who's in the stew:
Citigroup, $310,294;
SAC Capital Partners, $282,000;
United Technologies, $263,400;
AIG, $224,678;
Bear Stearns, $205,600;
St. Paul Travelers, $205,400;
Royal Bank of Scotland, $203,750;

(note here, a lot of people think the BBC is private, but it is not, it is wholly owned and operated by the British government, a lot of people thing the Bank of England is a public bank, it is not, it is wholly owned and operated privately, recently the BOE took over the RBS and the three other top banks in Britian to consolidate their monetary powers, they are also part owners of our own Federal Reserve Bank.)gs

Goldman Sachs, $175,600;
Morgan Stanley, $155,000;
Credit Suisse, $154,550;
Merrill Lynch, $134,950;
JPMorgan Chase, $129,150;
Lehman Brothers, $128,400;
KPMG, $113,100;
General Electric, $108,250;
Deloitte Touche, $108,000;
USB, $101,900;
Hartford Finance Services, $101,500;
The Hartford, $94,350;
Bank of America, $91,300.

With $165,400, Sen. Dodd also tops the list of members of Congress, who took campaign cash from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac since 1989.

(followed closely by Barney Frank who once described the head of Freddie Mac as his 'spouse.')

Sen. Barack Obama, the self-styled agent of change, is a distant second at $126,000 and Sen. John Kerry is third at $111,000.

In the top 20 are Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

But get the hyprocisy? Abrammoff was a totally Republican owned scandal, even though he gave Harry Reid more money than anyone, Reid wrote two letters using his Senate letterhed, returned no money but he was guilty of nothing, and this all this current 'crisis' is nothing more than a huge rippoff of the average American citizen and we are supposed to go with the flow and have our grandchildren keep on paying for what is being stolen from us today.

PS; Just for the heck of it, here is a picture of Rahm Emanuel back when he was studying ballet.

So you will all know this is a well trained song and dance from this dog and pony show!!
