March 23, 2009 – About Time!
Mar 23rd, 2009 by Rob Smith, Jr.

Rolling Stone magazine finally comes forth and spotlights the economic mess (The Big Takeover’). Where were they 6 months ago? How about a year ago? They were busy pushing their candidate on a level of the absurd with their endless covers of their Obama deity. Now we’re stuck. They realize things have gone awry. They are now publishing stories about it.

It bugs me that I’ve been drawing about this for years and now folks are acting as if none of this knowledge was available until now.

Have to give them kudos for allowing this story out. It could have had more and really gotten into the Geitner issue. But, frankly, it’s probably over the heads of many of it’s readers as it is.

Something important the writer missed is that a good deal of the loans lent by A.I.G. were lent to folks in Europe. We’ve been handing money to a company that is paying itself and paying off parts of Europe.

This is all about what the present ‘Tea Party’s are about. Or Glenn Beck’s ‘The 912 Project’. It’s not just conservative. These Big Brother Business clowns are effecting us all. We need to know it and act.
