While "progressive" has become a bad work in politics, I'm looking to make progress as a human. Accepting my downfalls and working to correct them. Treating people with basic respect and dignity. Steering away from those who use fear to control the masses.

One point I want to make is that all of us are going to have responsibilities to get this economy moving again. And when I saw an article today indicating that Wall Street bankers had given themselves $20 billion worth of bonuses — the same amount of bonuses as they gave themselves in 2004 — at a time when most of these institutions were teetering on collapse and they are asking for taxpayers to help sustain them, and when taxpayers find themselves in the difficult position that if they don’t provide help that the entire system could come down on top of our heads — that is the height of irresponsibility. It is shameful.

Aw Shucks! You got me!!

“The OLC’s rulings may bend interpretations of executive power beyond the breaking point in the eyes of many Democrats and legal scholars but the OLC is the ruling legal authority inside the executive branch.”

John Barry, Newsweek, “The Politics of Vengence”
