How Citizens United may not have played out the way we thought, and how Corporate America lost control of the GOP, but don't worry it's still about the money

"Economic Scene" column today, "Business Losing Clout in a G.O.P. Moving
Right, and I guess that is his subject. But along the way he raises some

pieces of classical music and everything will be fine.
The Voice of Knowledge
Before they learn how to speak, children are wild, living in their true
nature, like all other healthy animals. They live in a world of feelings. Life
is very cool for the first few years, until the domesticated culture
reduces them to domesticated neurotics. By and by, domesticated adults
teach them names, and then language, and then abstract concepts, like *good*and
*bad*, *trendy* and *dorky*. Young children believe whatever we tell them,
even if it’s irrational or toxic. In this manner, their minds are filled
with knowledge, and innocence gets tossed out the window.

outposts, airfields, missile sites and more. Legions of innocent civilianswill be slaughtered.

All Americans who don't want World War III should read this, because that is certainly where we are headed if Congress should cave in to Obama's demand that they approve his unjust plan to attack Syria. Democrats should give up their view of Obama as a Democrat trying to do the right things for our country but being impeded by Republicans. Nothing could be farther from the truth. He is in the camp of the blood thirsty anti-democracy neoconservatives. Paul Craig Roberts explains with great clarity the Rubicon that our country is now on the cusp of crossing. No exageration, to cross it would mark the end of democracy in the western world. So stop listening to government lies regurgitated nightly by the presstitute mainstream media and demand that your Senators and Representatives refuse to legitimate Obama's intended attack on Syria.

One for Matt Yglesias, who makes a good point:
[T]he striking thing about American politics today is the extent to which
politicians in congress don't reach agreements even when the American

The example he gives is about taxes; he correctly points out that the
polling on taxes has the majority of Republicans actually support a
deficit-reducing deal that relies on cutting spending and raising taxes.

Can An Employer Force You To Quit? 5 things to think about before signing a forced resignation letter
One question I'm surprised I've never gotten at AOL Jobs is one of the most
common questions I get in my law practice. That is, whether your boss can

miserable you'll quit, but some will come right out and say it's time to

What are your rights if your employer shoves a resignation letter in front

Alliance For Natural health, 27 August 2013
Would some of their labels say, “Brewed with pure Rocky Mountain spring
water, GMO corn syrup, and fish bladder”?
If you like to kick back now and then with a cold one, you may not have
given much thought to what’s in the bottle or can. Perhaps you were
reassured by ads with wholesome images of sparkling mountain streams and
barley rippling in the breeze, or by slogans like “Budweiser: The Genuine
Article.”
The reality is far less appetizing. The list of legal additives to beer

“The universe does not

The stars and planets spinning

You cannot hold gravity

Why not, then, let go?
You could move through time
like a shark through water,
neither restless or ceasing,
absorbed in and absorbing

Why pretend you can do otherwise?

And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone seabreakers,

On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world forever, it seems…
We, in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Ninevah with our sighing,
And Babel itself in our mirth;
And o’erthrew them with prophesying
To the old of the new world’s worth;
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth."

ISRAEL & US RAMP UP MILITARY ACTIVITIES IN REGION
If the US does attack Syria I'd bet my life that Israel will be involved in
some substantial way. And if that happens all hell is likely to break open
- which is what the US and Israel really want. They are both itching to
have a reason to expand this war into Iran. The potential to draw Russia
into a shooting match is also very high.
Leave it to the Democrats to lead us into such an escalation - they talk
peace, demobilize the peace movement, and expand our wars. LBJ did the
same thing with Vietnam.
Don't buy the war talk from the magician and his team.

*"In my youth it was said that what was too silly to be said may be
sung. In modern economics it may be put into mathematics."*
- Ronald Coase, 1988
The oldest living Nobel Prize winner died last night at 102.
Ronald Coase won his Nobel Prize for ideas in economics he developed when
he was an undergraduate in the 1930s at the London School of Economics,
studying under Arnold Plant and a young Friedrich Hayek. And he got it for
essays that were short, concise, and eminently readable—ideas that hit the
calcifying economics profession with all the intellectual power of a hand

David L. Smith of the Geneva Business Insider blog joins for our monthly

these endless illegal wars of aggression.
Rep. Alan Grayson's Petition. Tell Congress: Don't Attack Syria
*By MARC McDONALD*
As the corporate media's drumbeat for war gets louder and louder, it's
reassuring to know that there is still a member of Congress who speaks the
truth (and who is willing to confront the Military Industrial Complex and
the "defense" contractor corporations that feed at the trough of our tax
dollars).
Please add your voice to Rep. Alan Grayson's online petition to tell
Congress: *Don't Attack Syria*.
As the petition states:
*"The Administration is considering intervening in the Syrian civil war. We
oppose this. There's no vital national security involved. We are... more »
Really, John? Kerry Says "World Wants to Know If U.S. Can Make a Difference."
John, calm down. We know the U.S. can make a difference. We all know
that. We know the U.S. makes a difference to just about anything that
gets its attention. But just because you can make a difference doesn't
mean that's a good thing.
Case in point. You made a difference in Iraq. You got rid of Saddam and
gave the country a new government. It's a really crappy government,
largely beholden to Iran, and the country remains poised on the brink of
civil war that's already claiming anywhere from 800 to 1,000 lives a
month. So, yeah, you made a difference.
You made a diffe... more »

The Power of Faith Trumps The Power of Bombs
The Obama administration and its allies, the Saudi despots and hawkish
Israelis, have already lost the illegal and aggressive war against Syria.
The verdict of history has already been handed down.
Syria is in the right. It has not attacked America, and it did not use
chemical weapons on civilians. Washington has no rightful claim to
intervene in Syria. Obama and Kerry are throwing their country into a fire
that will consume them to no end. They are up against a people, a region,
and a religion that cannot be destroyed with bombs. They will never submit
to America's dictates. They w... more »
Transition: Pedro Ferriz Santacruz (1921-2013)
We have received word from our friends and colleagues at Mexico's

Hanna Rosin corrects an inaccurate claim!
*TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2013*
*We liberals decide to fight back:* Last Friday, Hanna Rosen corrected an
inaccurate claim—an inaccurate claim that is frequently made.
Especially in this tribal era, news orgs should be doing this sort of
script-checking on a regular basis. For ourselves, we were struck by some
of the reactions to Rosin.
What claim was Rosin correcting? It was a bit of a Labor Day special. She
defined the inaccurate claim right in her opening paragraph:

Children Aren't Learning
My pal Roland was back at school last week. He seemed really happy with his
students this year, at least in terms of behavior. As far as their ability
to learn the basic stuff from the syllabus... he usually says the kids in
his inner city elementary school don't learn because of their situations at
home. My parents encouraged me to do my homework and status was awarded in
my house based, at least to some extent, on achievement in school. Many of
his kids' have very different situations at home, including parents on
drugs or in prison. according to a *Businessweek* report last wee... more »

Pro-choice violence: The evidence
Update on the 'pro-choice violence' anti-choice shit-disturbing at the
Imperial Pub.
If this is their evidence, no wonder the cops weren't interested.
And isn't it interesting that there are two young black men in the chalking
group? Were the fetus fetishists offering a 'choice' between race and
gender on which they were planning their complaint?
I'm betting this isn't the first time the Imperial Pub has been targetted.
Look how close the Pub (first map) is to Campaign Lie's office (second map).

1974 Ehrlich and Holdren Senate Testimony
Motivated by my recent reading of *The Bet*, by Yale University's Paul Sabin,
I tracked down the complete 1974 Senate testimony of Paul Ehrlich and John
Holdren in hearings on the "Domestic Supply Information Act" held by the
Committee on Commerce and Committee on Government Operations (Serial No.
93-107).
The testimony provides an eye-opening look into the depths of Malthusian
froth of the time and also provides a great case study for thinking about
the role of experts in policy making. I plan on using the testimony in
future courses, so I am making it available here as a PDF.

US: The Indispensable (Bombing) Nation
Pepe Escobar
Asia Times Online
Yes We Scan. Yes We Drone. And Yes We Bomb. The White House's propaganda
blitzkrieg to sell the Tomahawking of Syria to the US Congress is already
reaching pre-bombing maximum spin - gleefully reproduced by US corporate
media.
And yes, all parallels to Iraq 2.0 duly came to fruition when US Secretary
of State John Kerry pontificated that Bashar al-Assad "now joins the list
of Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein" as an evil monster. Why is Cambodia's
Pol Pot never mentioned? Oh yes, because the US supported him.

Steve Israel Is Serving Up Some Very Unappetizing Mystery Meat

Salisbury steaks, sausages, or hot dogs, that have an unidentifiable
source. Most often the term is used in reference to food served in
institutional cafeterias, such as prison food or an American public school
lunch." They suggest also looking up Pink Slime. I'd suggest also looking

Catch of the Day
To Scott Lemieux, who has gathered up some of the worst Munich analogiesbeing bandied about with regard to Syria:
Here’s the thing: for this to be a “Munich moment,” Assad would have to,
you know, have both the desire and capacity to conquer most of the region.
Since in fact it’s far from obvious that Assad will even be able to
maintain power in his own country — let alone have the ability to overrun
the Middle East — Assad isn’t a new Hitler and whatever he does Obama won’t
be Chamberlain. And in this particular case the analogy goes beyond
stupidity to being self-refuting — if Assa... more »
