Aggressive Interrogations.

MSNBC reporting that "aggressive interrogations" got the name of the courier who led death squad black operators to Bin Laden's safe house. The anti-torture movement, dim and dwindling as it was, just took its own kill shot to the left eye.

    Did you see this?

    I'm not accepting or rejecting any story about Bin Laden right now. But I agree that the narrative we're hearing is mighty convenient for neoliberalism.

    I wouldn't trust a former Reagan cabinet member.

    Not trusting him, JM. But Roberts has been pretty good on a few subjects. There was another former Reagan guy who recently made news saying the Republican tax plans are crazy and it's time to raise taxes on the rich. When someone's right, they're right, no matter how many times they were wrong. Roberts has had some fine articles in Counterpunch.

    "There was another former Reagan guy who recently made news saying the Republican tax plans are crazy and it's time to raise taxes on the rich."

    That was David Stockman.

    yes, Obama has been good for neoliberalism, but that's been true for quite awhile, as I discuss towards the end of my post about Obama's death:
