Right, Wing-Nut!: Money Honey Maria Bartiromo Likes It Rough; Senator Cardin Does Not
Maria's cosmetically inflated lips are simply a distraction in tonight's Republican "debate." That's not necessarily bad when--after an hour of repetitious trash talk (a crescendoing "piling-on" that serves to "magnify" rather than diminish President Obama) the listener is numb to the deluge of demonizations. Maria's excessive lips are a reminder of the luxuries afforded the elite 1% who promise to "make America great" by returning to the "values" of the past--such as the "trickle-down" economy that serves to enrich that top 1% at the expense of the majority. Conservatism need not be another "shock and awe" campaign against Iraq or those awesomely "radical" terrorists. Where are the "cultural" conservatives who recognize--besides buildings "walls" and re-filming the cosmetics of how American prisoners are restored to freedom-- is the saving of Plato, Shakespeare, and Michelangelo or the indigenous American arts of jazz; the "Great American Songbook" and the American technology that D.W. Griffith, in 1915, raised to the level of national epic in the first American feature film.?
