At the end of the day --a phrase to nominate to the Banned Words List-- Shapiro is Obama's appointment and PWG designee; the administration sanctioned this FOIA embargo, making the current finance hearings and Rep. A. Townes' FRB subpoena a farce of epic proportions.

You will recall the series of Congressional committee subpoenas issued prior and perhaps conclude, regardless of president the order is unenforceable. I would be amazed if the House sued the SEC -- although I could readily, inevitably imagine SCOTUS deciding standing.

The situation is fucked up. The people must act accordingly. To my mind, how we act --long-, medium-, or short-term, coordinated or anarchical-- isn't important so long as we do. Run the motherfuckin train off the track.

Any way is ultimately determinative. I trust my neighbors before a golum fuck.

Good or bad I can live with. Sleeze, not so much.

Diversity is the key to economic and political evolution.

The sooner this sucker is crashed the better. I would hope that something stronger than the impersonal imperfect would be warranted, such as: The sooner WE crash this sucker the better, but I fear it won't be. But Ron Paul is my new friend.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

Fine. Experimentation is a good thing. I'd like to see turnover in both chambers at federal level every single election from now until the day I die. I've been doing my part since 2006. So I say, try, try, try 'til we get it right.
