Taibbi also points out the importance of self-interest among the faithful. It would be equally pointless, Taibbi indicates, to try to persuade any of the Cornerstone Church devoted that the philosophy they've been told is Christianity has absolutely nothing to do with the teachings of Christ as recorded in the Gospels: From here Hagee went into a long spiel about the difference between the Christ of the Gospels and the Christ of Revelation.

This is an important point for people who are not fundamentalist Christians and want to understand them.

Fundamentalists clearly prefer the Revelation Christ. And, writing as he was in the early days of the electoral cycle with the primaries still underway, Taibbi shows remarkably prescience, as for example about the famed hopy-changey Democratic Revolution changing in fact very little, like all the other changes of government there've been in the past three decades or more: even the few scraps that have been cast down to us from the masters' table, like healthcare reform, have been so adulterated by special interests operating among corrupt lawmakers as to be only slightly better than worthless.

I read for a new book club I joined and can't wait to discuss it with others. Congress is even worse than I thought.

I felt that he overstated the saturation of the "Truthers" in an effort to make a false equivalency between the right fringe and the left fringe. But maybe that's because I'm reading it in when we can see the power of the tea party and the Loose Change folks have completely faded. Tea Party movement.

The senator, they said, is doing well and won the last debate. And polls show, they added, that the country cares about his favored issues, particularly health care. I may have been the first media figure to do so. This was early in the Obama presidency, when he was beginning to renege on some of his progressive campaign promises closing Gitmo , drug re-importation , etc.

The New York Federal Reserve was a zoo. Imagine NASA headquarters on the day a giant asteroid careens into the atmosphere. That was the New York Fed: all hands on deck, peak human panic.
