The Importance of the Press in our Democracy with Mark Leibovich of The New York Times
Join Mark Leibovich, Chief National Correspondent for the Times Magazine as he speaks about The Importance of the Press in our Democracy.
Mark’s presentation is going to be a discussion of how — in this
scripted and overly produced political age — journalists can still
uncover fresh and revealing details about our leaders. In Mark’s
presentation, he includes stories of his experiences profiling political
figures such as Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, John McCain, Dick Cheney
and may others…Mark also has a new book coming out in the spring of 2013. The working title for the book is The Club. Advance requests for tickets are no longer required for admission.

AMERICA DOES NOT PASS 'CONSTITUTIONAL MUSTER' AND THUS, THERE IS NO SUCH IDEA IN THE USA AS 'SMART'.
Begin with the book: SECRETS OF THE TEMPLE, written by William Greider about the "Federal Reserve System" and the LEFT-PROGRESSIVE HAD BEST WAKE THE HELL UP.
PLAN 'BE' UM SMART MEANING PLAN 'B'?

>> Senator Elizabeth Warren, the fresh face from
Massachusetts, has joined Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona,
Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell of Washington and independent Senator
Angus King of Maine as co-sponsors of a bill to restore the
Glass-Steagall Act—the New Deal reform that separated investment banking
from commercial banks. The Federal Reserve under Alan Greenspan led the
charge on gutting Glass-Steagall. Bill Clinton collaborated with
right-wing Republicans in repealing the law.
“Banking should be boring,” Senator Warren
said. “Savings accounts, checking accounts—the things that you and I
rely on everyday—should be safe from the sort of high-risk activities
that broke our economy…. The FDIC insures our traditional banks to keep
your money safe…. But the government should not be insuring
hedge funds, swaps dealing and other risky investment banking.” The
McCain-Warren-Cantwell-King legislation proposes a five-year transition
period for banks to downsize and undo their maze of risky connections to
shadow banking. These adjustments, Warren explained, move the system
“toward ending ‘too big to fail’ once and for all, and minimizing the
risk of future bailouts.”
Senator Sherrod Brown, Ohio Democrat, has
teamed with Senator David Vitter, Louisiana Republican, to push a remedy
that could act faster—imposing higher capital requirements for
risk-exposed mega-banks. These parallel measures would naturally provoke
intense attacks by the banks, but the political assumptions may be
shifting for reform-minded advocates.
Why are the big banks still getting away with
highway robbery while the country remains mired in a stagnant economy?
Democrats could run on that issue in 2014 and aim the same question at
the two-faced Republican party. The GOP stands with the bankers and
against consumers and gets away with it. For that matter, so do a lot of
Democrats. This is good fight to have. It it will clarify the true
intentions of both parties.
Elizabeth Warren is tackling Wall Street, and she’s starting with student debt.
CLARION CALL IS ABOUT THE SPIRIT IN OUR UNIVERSES KNOWN AND UNKNOWN AND ALL POWERS! ALL POWERS! ALL POWERS ARE TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH CAN SET US INTO THE NOW OF GROWN-UPS ABLE TO GET MONEY HAS BEEN A GIGANTIC FRAUD AND INGESTING AND DIGESTING THE POLITICALLY INCORRECT IN THIS TIME IS A GIGANTIC VOMIT IN THE FACE OF REALITY.
It's a great idea to be politically correct, but the problem is, CLUELESSNESS never got a great idea born and the time has long past, when GREIDER, MOYER, NYT ET AL, dialed into the 21 Century and realize more people in the USA are starved for the REALITY TRUTH COSMIC ENEMA wake up and understand "Left-Progressive-SMART/s" that no money out of thin air and sold to America for more than a century is indeed news that can be 'intellectually taught in law schools', after all, OWEN M. PANNER, ET AL: ARTICLE I, SECTION IX, CLAUSE VII, an accounting from the vile evil families that are caught in the dirtiest con ever.
LAWYERS IN THE USA, SUCH AS IN OREGON STATE - A CHIEF JUSTICE APPOINTED BY BILL CLINTON WHO IS ONE OF THE WORST OF THE WORST IN OUR SOVEREIGNTY LIMP DICK DRAGGING DRACONIAN MEASURES AS THOUGH 'SMART'!
