What Bill Moyers said

From the introduction to his 12/18/09 Journal:

Something's not right here. One year after the great collapse of our financial system, Wall Street is back on top while our politicians dither. As for health care reform, you're about to be forced to buy insurance from companies whose stock is soaring, and that's just dandy with the White House.

Truth is, our capitol's [sic] being looted, republicans are acting like the town rowdies, the sheriff is firing blanks, and powerful Democrats in Congress are in cahoots with the gang that's pulling the heist. This is not capitalism at work. It's capital. Raw money, mounds of it, buying politicians and policy as if they were futures on the hog market.

I don't care if every member of the Senate Democratic caucus is voting for this Lieberman-Nelson health care deform bill. This is the Democratic version of Predator State government.
