Nothing happens in today's political world by accident. There are no coincidences any more. If A occurs and it just happens to fit the administration's agenda for policy B, do not believe that B is a response to A or that A just blundered onto the scene at an inopportune time.
The most egregious example of this is the linkage between government ownership of GM and Chrysler with the safety issues and recalls of the largest competitor of Government Motors, Inc. Toyota is a global leader in vehicle production. Literally millions of automobiles bear the Toyota or Lexus logo. Do you really believe that a dozen of so "unintended acceleration" events just happened to surface now? If the California fiasco and falsification filming of the runaway Prius didn't make you suspicious, then the "Don't Buy" recommendation by Consumer Reports of a Lexus 460 for a safety issue that has yet to produce a single mishap should.
The nationalization of industry, healthcare, insurance and finance to create a government controlled rather than free-market economy has moved the agenda to "financial regulation." We've got that crack (no pun intended) financial guru and business leader, Barney Frank with his lame-duck cohort Chris Dodd seeking to build regulatory strait-jackets for Wall Street that will make entrepreneurship, investment and profit things of the distant past. To do this you must create a public clamor for a governmental solution. You need a villain. That's where Goldman-Sachs comes in.
Poor people hate rich people. They did in Paris in 1789 and they did in Petrograd in 1905. They also outnumber rich people by a significant majority. The result is that when you harness and direct the orchestrated anger, you can generate a revolution.
Goldman-Sachs is the scapegoat du jour. But, isn't this inconvenient truth a bit embarrassing?
What To Do About the $1,000,000 in Contributions?
Apparently the feeding hand got bit. Which is a hoisting for Goldman. And the Messiah is showing quite clearly that just because you support him today doesn't mean he will love you tomorrow. A bit of a petard jack-up for the One as well.
I wonder how that's going to play out for future fund-raising?

Im thinking that the GOP should in theory end up with huge coffers of $$$ in the next election cycle, unless these corporate bozo's don't learn from past mistakes......in theory no Dem should ever receive another campaign contribution from any business.
