Corporate Control Media Attempting To Ignore Union Reps On Sunday Talk Shows

February 24, 2011 By Egberto Willies

It is not at all surprising that the union workers and their leaders are not receiving serious coverage on the Sunday talk shows. It must be remembered that most of the network stations are owned by interests that are not only in broadcasting but in other businesses that benefit from the destruction of employee unions. […]

The Story of CITIZENS UNITED vs FEC Why Democracy Only Works When People are in Charge

February 24, 2011 By Egberto Willies

I’m a person. Chances are if you’re reading this you’re a person too. … Exxon? Not a person. But one year ago today, five members of the U.S. Supreme Court got this simple truth all wrong. In the case Citizens United v. FEC they ruled that the limited existing restrictions on corporate spending on U.S. […]

Sheppard Smith Only Sane Anchor Left At FoxNews As He Calls Wisconsin Union Busting Right

February 24, 2011 By Egberto Willies

I have been saying for months that Sheppard Smith is making sure that he maintains some sort of integrity so he can maintain his own viability when FoxNews craters. FoxNews can maintain its dominance as long as enough of their gullible followers still fail to realize that the same station they adore is a clear […]

Markos Moulitsas: War On Labor Will Backfire – But Will Victory Have Staying Power #wiunion

February 24, 2011 By Egberto Willies

I tend to agree that the push by Republicans in Wisconsin to destroy unions have the potential to backfire. My fear however is that unlike the Republicans (Tea Party) we tend to not have staying power. After electing President Obama, instead of actively matching the false grass root movement against healthcare reform and other policies, […]

President Obama’s Says DOMA Unconstitutional & Will Not Defend. What Took So Long?

February 23, 2011 By Egberto Willies

It is about time. After reading the document I was of two minds. Firstly what took the President and the Attorney General so long? The second, is that the document justifying their actions was so well written and complete with all the “I”s dotted and the “t ”s crossed. It is sad that removing the […]

February 23, 2011 By Egberto Willies

It does not matter what Conservatives say. When we are in an economic crisis where businesses are unwilling and/or unable to spend government must to ensure the economy continues to turn. Inasmuch as all the evidence that proves this point under Roosevelt, Nixon, and Reagan, Conservatives continue to push snake oil. Reagan clearly used backdoor […]

Texas A Citizen Hurting Polluter Even As They Fight The EPA To Continue Harming

February 23, 2011 By Egberto Willies

My state, Texas, the largest state in the continental United States dumps the most CO2 and other chemicals into our atmosphere and waters. Yet  Texas boldly fights the EPA claiming that President Obama’s administration is overreaching for attempting to protect the air Texans breath. After-all, Texans are US citizens that must be protected even if […]
