H.R. 3745, Putting All of a Credit Union’s Eggs in the Collection Basket
There’s a saying that’s popular among credit unions: “not for profit, not for charity, but for service.” Most people know that credit unions are non-profit organizations that return all their proceeds to members, distinguishing them from banks, institutions whose goal …

The Brutal Math Of Keith Drummond For President
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/keithdrummond.jpg
In Keith Drummond’s America, the corporations will be able to pollute as much as they want, without regulations in the way. They’ll be raking in the profits without paying taxes. They won’t have to worry much about the poor, polluted, uneducated, sick American population, either, because they’ll just continue to outsource all their manufacturing to China.

Pentagon Cuts? Read the Fine Print, then Think Again

Romney Is Wrong. The USA Is Great Because We Can Be Divided.
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/romneysmirk.jpg
If Mitt Romney wants a united nation instead of a divided nation, he doesn’t have to travel far. He can go to Cuba. Or, he can go to China, where they put protesters in prison. He can go to North Korea. He can go to Saudi Arabia. Those countries are united behind their leaders – because the people in those countries aren’t allowed to speak their minds. Is that what Mitt Romney wants for America?

Government Does Create Jobs, Mr. Romney. Fairies Don’t Do The Work.
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/romneynogovtjobs.jpg
It’s absolute nonsense for Mitt Romney to say that “Government doesn’t create jobs.” Does he think that the President answers his own telephone, guards the White House all on his own, and flies Air Force One while the First Lady serves as co-pilot?

Occupy The Igloo

The Occupy Igloo activism has already started in Davos, Switzerland. There’s not only an igloo to house the Occupy protest, but a snow podium too, for frigid press conferences.

Mitt Romney Campaign Event Kicks Out Voter For Wearing A 99 Percent Button
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/occupyeverywhere.jpg
These people were seized by security guards and forced out of the building. This is what it means for Mitt Romney to be campaigning as a corporate leader. Romney only wants Yes Men around him. Dare to question Romney’s wisdom in his presence, and you’ll be taken away to somewhere far away, where Romney won’t have to be confronted with your uncomfortable dissent any more.

Would Mitt Romney Be A Presidential Candidate If This Was A Merit Society?
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/trustfundbabiesromney.jpg
If Mitt Romney were not born a millionaire son of a politically connected father, he would not be a presidential candidate today. He’d be stuck in mid-level corporate management, still working past the age of retirement because his benefits package got reduced by a CEO who takes in a multimillion dollar bonus every year. Yet, he has the audacity to say that we live in a meritocracy.

Ron Paul Volunteers PAC Breaks Down
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ronpaulvolunteerspac.jpg
Independent expenditures are easy tools for wealthy individuals and big corporate powers to use, because they have the money to simply hire veteran professionals to create effective campaign mechanisms. Independent expenditures are nearly impossible for people at the bottom of the economic ladder – people like college students – to use effectively, because independent expenditures require money to work. People at the bottom of the economic ladder tend not to have powerful friends with lots of money who are willing to donate large amounts to political campaign efforts.

Occupy The Caucuses Will Not Target Voting
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/occupywfdesmoines.jpg
This photograph of the Occupy The Caucuses protest at Wells Fargo in Des Moines linked one particular presidential candidate to the bailout bank, referring to Mitt Fargo – as Mitt Romney opposes accountability for Wall Street firms, and has taken direct donations from Wells Fargo employees, recycled bailout money in his campaign coffers. Before the group of protesters shut down the Wells Fargo branch, they demonstrated at Mitt Romney’s office, where some of the Occupy protesters were arrested. One carried a sign reading, “Mitt, what does the $2 million + you got from Wall Street banks buy?”

Three Corporations Spend As Much As Almost 50 Iowa Families Earn
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/romneycorporatecash.jpg
Just 3 corporate donations equal the amount of the entire financial income of 49.25 Iowa households making the median income. Of course, these households can’t spare much of anything at all, much less their entire incomes, just to help set up a mechanism for funneling money to the benefit of the Mitt Romney for President campaign.

Democrats Cave In Again. Millionaires Keep Their Tax Cuts.
http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/donkeycavein.jpg
Why are Democrats caving in to Republican demands that millionaires get to keep low tax rates? They’re doing so in order to protect legislation to create more tax cuts. So, Democrats are caving in to Republicans in order to protect a Republican-friendly piece of legislation.
