levi palin

I wonder if we will learn the truth about BRISTOL PALIN’s pregnancy from her baby daddy’s appearance on the TYRA BANKS show airing today?

Once and for all I need to know if TRIG PALIN is really TRIPP JOHNSTON PALIN or whatever.

General Motor’s C.E.O. = A Junkyard Dog…

big 3

General Motors chief executive RICK WAGONER has been forced to fall on his own sword in order for G.M. to receive an extra $17billion in welfare benefits from the government.

General Motors has plans to sever 50,000 jobs in order to make their company competitive again. I wonder if G.M. plans on rolling out a car to compete with the TaTa shitbox?

American car companies should be getting bailouts from Exxon and Amoco since they have made vehicles that have only benefited those companies and not the American consumer.

McDONALDS = CORPORATE WELFARE…

food stamp

Did you ever wonder where your tax dollars were being spent after you purchased some McNuggets

Those monies are being used to pay bonuses to AIG execs

Welfare isn’t just for the really poor. It’s actually for the really wealthy.

Wealth + laissez faire economics = welfare for the uber-rich.

Money 2 Burn…

joker

One of the most hardbody scenes in the Dark Knight movie is when the Joker presides over a pile of burning cash. Something like a few million or a billion. The amount was astronomical, but what made the scene all the more perverse was the realization that dawned on you that the Joker never even gave a fuck about the money. It was never about the money to him at all, but the thrill of watching everyone else squirm, yell and scream because the cash was all that ever mattered to them.

I feel like I am witnessing that scene all over again except the Joker is now replaced by a faceless giant called the banking industry which takes money from the government, the insurers and from me, all simultaneously. While still keeping a straight face and telling me that it is out of money. The banks aren’t out of money. I am out of money. I am the one who needs the government bailout. I’m buying a loaf of moldy raisin bread for a quarter out of the back of some African lady’s minivan. I’m buying warm coldcuts from some Puerto Rican guy on a skateboard.

Meanwhile, the banks are playing everybody for chumps because we are. And its our own fault too. We are the ones that preferred the convenience of plastic to paper. With all of this convenience comes a price.

That bill hasn’t arrived yet.

CARRION = DEAD MEAT…

roadkill

Has a politrickster ever had a more appropriate name as ADOLFO CARRION? The former Bronx Borough President and newly minted White House czar for urban policy hasn’t even had a chance to make his cabinet seat warm before we all find out that he is as crooked as anyone would be in the nation’s poorest urban area.

DP.com friends WWIB have been posting links to the Daily News and Village Voice investigative reports on CARRION’s cozy relationship with property developers and even architects that were granted contracts on capital construction projects in the Bronx. I’d hate to think how much other stuff is dangling around from CARRION’s time as BX BeeP. This is why the Bronx has remained disenfranchised, underserved and poor.

It’s too easy for funds to go missing when large sums are being moved around. The Bronx has required so much remedial development to bridge the gap from decades of negligence and irresponsibility. CARRION is just the tip of the iceberg for this boro’s woes. His conflict of interest with a municipal architect is such chump change. There were billions of dollars being circulated through the Bronx as it became the final frontier for NYC’s gentrification.

Although CARRION escaped the Bronx just as the construction bubble was bursting he has found himself in a hornet’s nest down in the D.C. Beltway. If you remember BERNARD KERIK then you know that the microscopic laser ain’t no joke when it is trained on you. BERNARD KERIK went from flying high as a Ground Zero Hero to just being a grounded zero. OBAAMA might have to pull another Latino from somewhere else to sit in this cabinet seat. I wonder if ProperTalks knows of any responsible Mexicans on the westside?
