I Think that I Shall Never See By David Glenn Cox
I think that I shall never see a site as lovely as a tax rebate, for free A partisan platform based on greed by giving more to those who don’t need To rescue the economy is not a mistake but throwing life jackets to those not in the lake?
It’s hard to get angry with the people who are passing out money, only once before in my life have I been this angry about found money. A few years ago I bought a TV from a store which shall remain (…)

My son is in the auto salvage business, he buys and sells wrecked Honda’s. He either strips them down for parts or rebuilds them swapping engine and transmissions from the wrecked cars into cars with blown motors. We were discussing the proposed tax rebate and I explained that since he is unmarried he will only get half the rebate that I will. He laughed and said, “Yeah but hell, I’ll be getting lots of them!”
He’s right of course, the economic stimulus will help his (…) -

So It Begins By David Glenn Cox
The run on the bank that George Bailey faced on his wedding day in, “It’s a wonderful Life” made him ask, “How did this start?”
“I don’t know? How do these things ever start George.” But for us in 2008 the answer is simple yet complicated. It starts by outsourcing jobs and moving manufacturing over seas, naively believing your global competitors will be satisfied with just a piece of your business. That the student could never better the master that (…) -

The Roof, The Roof is on Fire By David Glenn Cox
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke spoke with Congress today and his message was as precise as it was clear. It was given in his normal demeanor of calm intellectualism but to those of us trying to read the tea leaves while in the cup of the real world the message was one of panic. Again and again Bernanke was asked by the members of Congress wholly partisan questions and again and again his message was, quickly! Now! Quickly! His message was in (…) -

Cyclical Evolution By David Glenn Cox
There once was a being named Orso, a sojourner among the galaxies. Then it came unto him the creatures that would destroy his faith in all that he held sacred. Creatures to whom reality was but a concept and to whom truth was but a belief and logic was what ever they said it was. Truth was to them like an ocean wave crashing on the shore; its validity would climb up onto the sandy beaches only to and just as certainly then to retreat back from where it (…) -
Gimme Back My Bullets

So as we stand at the vestibule of hard times and remain unacknowledged by those who would just as soon wipe us from the bottom of their shoes. We must again remind ourselves and our leaders that we are more than just generalities and statistics. That we the people are not tenant farmers or renters here but the owners and regents of this land. Your wealth is at our discretion; our poverty is not at yours. That a fair chance for opportunity and prosperity isn’t a social (…) -

Comparative History By David Glenn Cox
Huddled in the dark corridors, fed with the finest of food and drink and sophistry now comes a shadow of fear, a pall of realization. That those of us outside the Washington corridors of power, outside the Wall Street offices have known about for months, it is no well kept secret to America working class or perhaps I should revise that to the non working class or maybe the over working class.

Managing Myth, Media Manufacturing By David Glenn Cox
The tragic death of Benizeir Bhutto in Rawlipindi Pakistan has moved America’s last manufacturing base into high gear. The American President Bush implies that it was Al Queda and Muslim extremists solely responsible, no investigation needed. Fred Thompson part time Republican presidential candidate and full time idiot came out on the day of Bhutto’s murder blaming Al Queda an Islamists with no proof what so ever.

Again and again and again, That we are under the thumb of a lawless band of criminals I can accept. What I can’t accept however, is that the one group in the world with the power to stop them save the Army, the one group that could rise to occasion at any time and put a stop this. A group that took the same oath as the President, drawing fat paychecks and fiddling while Rome burns has the credulity to again stand on the steps of the Capital and say, “I’m shocked by this (…)
