“Keep it Made in America” Bus Tour
The “Keep it Made in America” bus tour kicked off yesterday and may be headed to your state.
Several business associations in the U.S. collected their strength and put together an 11-state, 34-city, nationwide bus tour which began May 11 and ends May 14. The “Keep it Made in America” tour is sponsored by the Alliance for American Manufacturing, Mayors & and Municipalities Automotive Coalition, and the United Steelworkers.
The central facet of the tour is to raise awareness as to the importance of spending American money on American goods. It has become blatantly obvious that the “free trade” world has hurt the U.S. economy. By spending money outside of our own economy, we lose money and gain nothing; by spending it here we multiply the money in the system and gain long-term stability.
The main focus of the tour is the need to save the American auto industry. Our government has granted several billion dollars in loans to automakers, but it has never really taken a stand to guarantee their survival like it did for American banks.

The oligarchs openly talking about a coup d'état in America?
Multi-millionaire lobbyist Grover Norquist is calling for the impeachment of President Obama. In an interview with the right-wing National Journal - Norquist warned that if President Obama wins re-election and decides to let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire at the end of the year - then Republicans will "have enough votes in the Senate in 2014 to impeach [him]."What does that mean? It means that the super rich in America - and their political operatives like Norquist in Washington, DC - have now compared a tiny tax increase on the wealthy to high crimes and treason - the only Constitutional basis Congress can use to impeach a President. It sounds like the oligarchs are now openly talking about a coup d'état in America.-Thom(Do you think will try it? Tell us here.) -

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
