Yes, work with your brain is labor. The point is about whether you get paid the full value of your labor, or whether someone else who does none of the labor succeeds in boosting the "price" of the labor to profit in some way.

Engineers get paid pretty damn well. BAM! Solution found.

I guess if your looking for a simplistic measure, to which little thought has been given, you could say that. But if you want to grasp the complexity, you need to be a bit more scientific. One's wage level is decidedly not the criterion.

Conse 'Pubs will savage Obama's speech.

They will say this proves the people have realized Obama was a mistake.

Polling has proven the American People want Change, but they want somebody to change things for them, "The Party of No" is what the people want right now, Obama knows this. Ignore the State of the Union Address, the state of the union sucks. Even with losses in the House and Senate this year, "The Party of No" has no legs, and certainly has no leaders. Obama knows it's always darkest before the dawn, and he's manipulated the Republicans into cowering together in the dark. When Dawn breaks, the Truth will be seen by all, and the remaining stench of the Bush/Cheney Death March will be expunged.

That idiotic ambiguous line isn't going to work next election. People will have seen what 'Change' means and they won't want it. TMF will be forced to talk about issues and that's the last thing he wants to discuss.

Thank your president.

That's because it's a true grass roots uprising that's pushing the dems out.

You're a good cheerleader, Tracy, but your team is fucked, and they know it. Corporate America isn't so sure it wants Repunlicans back, seeing as how THEY ALMOST DESTROYED THE STOCK MARKET!!!!!!!
You saw Corporate America rear it's ugly head in 2000, when they gave little Bush the election, 5-4. You just saw them come out of the shadows again last week when they suceeded in enacting a Law that will enable them to skip any possibility of them losing power, 5-4.
There are two kinds of power: PEOPLE and MONEY. Each needs the other. The face of the Republican party is Sarah, Rush, and Glenn. That has Corporate America shitting it's pants! They want a sleepy president, like Reagan, or Daddy Bush.
The question is will Corporate Money back Romney, a sure loser? No, they'll pick up nickel and dime candidates now and wait til 2016, after Obama has fixed the Economy. The Republicans have no platform and they know it. If the terrorists attack again, Obama WILL become FDR! People will flock behind the President then. They always do.
