Could it be that the "blue lefty meanies" of the MSM are undone at last? The strife in Wisconsin over the place of unions in education and government seems to indicate that the jig is up. The left there seems to posit that "give me more money" is the only correct and defensible position. Any attempt to thwart that aim must therefore be more than wrong: evil! So any lengths are sanctioned in turning back the tide of refuseniks on gov't spending. The MSM immediately carried this narrative.
What would have happened without the diversity of the blogosphere, talk radio, and FNC?
Similarly in MN, not only MPR is constantly running petulant "you stole my cheese" spots while asking for money! The discussion of MN State budget, and particularly "Local Government Aid" is likewise hilarious. Why should Minneapolis, St. Paul--or any Ramsey or Hennepin County cities--get any LGA at ALL??? If they can't find a way to provide "basic services" with nearly 100% of the population and capital (and the Capitol!), shouldn't the buggers all be turned out in the next election for city and county???

Wall St 2: Money Never Sleeps (2010)
YATOSM: Yet Another Terrible Oliver Stone Movie.
This time "Wall St 2".
Wow...rare is the movie that I have to force myself to finish...but this was one. Terrible script, terrible direction. HORRIBLE SOUND TRACK of random crap by David Byrne!!!!??? Felt bad for all the actors...must have signed on before final script???? Nonsense plot that made no sense...and OPENS with bogus fusion science stuff. It was almost as dumb as in "Twister" where the bad guys were "corporate tornado chasers"--the bad guys in Wall St 2 are the same as the good guys--boring investment bankers.
Terrible direction...there was a scene near the end that should have been important--if it had dialogue and real characters--that had the character in the foreground out of focus with Shia LaBeouf in focus in the background. There was no importance to the composition--I think it was just sheer laziness.
TERRIBLE! DO NOT RENT! NOT EVEN TO SEE "what happens". A WASTE!
