Naomi Klein on Steph Miller

[greenman3610]

Paulson was the guy who ran dept at Goldman Sachs from 20 to
100 billion.
He's in charge of bailing himself out.
Worst possible man in the worst possible place.

1. She was awesome

Bush might be forced to do a primetime address

"Extortionist in chief"

"People have turned on this particular father figure."

Suspending capital gains tax, offshore drilling, more corporate tax breaks.

"They will use this crisis to push through more policies that are not in the interest of the public."

Referencing Army Times article about crowd control in the U.S.- "Don't let that make you afraid."

2. And one other thing.....

Naomi should only agree to be a SINGLE guest on any TV or radio talk show. What she has to say is too important and too relevant to be interrupted. This interview was so superior to her apearance on Maher - they pretty much let her say her piece.

3. I liked her emphasis....

on do not be afraid...
that our calling congress is working on this financial crisis...
Dodd said all his constituents are against the bail out...

and that now is the time to stand up and be heard

Going to contact my congress folks again.
