COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

Medvedev and Obama Negotiating Missile Defense

Medvedev said he had spoken with Obama by telephone and hoped to meet him in person soon.

"We hope to create frank and honest relations with the new administration and resolve problems that we were not able to resolve with the current administration," said Medvedev.


It looks as if our community organizer in chief wants to make a big splash fast. He and Medvedev are already chatting by phone and signaling negotiating points. It is almost too absurd to believe that Obama could be so rash and so foolish to even allow a hint of something so potentially dangerous, but if you look at some of the other dangerous liaisons Obama has maintained over the years, this should be no surprise.

The country in all it's foolishness has turned presidential leadership to an untested, untrained, unknown and otherwise unqualified enigmatic figure. Putin, through his wag Medvedev, is moving quickly sensing the naivete of the man.

Medvedev: ready to respond if U.S. ends missile plan

Thu Nov 13, 2008

PARIS (Reuters) -
Russia could cancel its deployment of missiles near the Polish border if U.S. President-elect Barack Obama scraps plans for a missile defense system in central Europe, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said.

In an interview with French daily newspaper Le Figaro published on Thursday, Medvedev said Moscow had no choice but to react to U.S. plans to set up a network of missiles and radar systems near its own frontiers.

"But we are ready to abandon this decision to deploy the missiles in Kaliningrad if the new American administration, after analyzing the real usefulness of a system to respond to 'rogue states', decides to abandon its anti-missile system," he said.

"We are ready to negotiate a 'zero option'. We are ready to reflect on a system of global security with the United States, the countries of the European Union and the Russian Federation."

Washington says the missile defense system it plans to set up in Poland and the Czech Republic is needed to protect the United States against missile strikes from what it calls rogue states, notably Iran.

Russia believes the system poses a threat to its security and last week announced plans to deploy Iskander tactical missiles in the Kaliningrad region bordering Poland in response.

Medvedev said he had spoken with Obama by telephone and hoped to meet him in person soon.

"We hope to create frank and honest relations with the new administration and resolve problems that we were not able to resolve with the current administration," he said.

Asked about his response to the global financial crisis, which has hit the Russian banking sector hard, Medvedev said there had been a flight of capital out of Russia and moves to protect key banks and private savings were necessary.

He said the government might take stakes in certain banks, as had been done in the United States and Britain but he said "nationalization is not the solution" and added that any government stakes would be sold as soon as possible.

  4. Shit, lineman, I slept through it, too.

    As mentioned in a Time article, just today, it draws reference to what we, I, touched upon, yesterday.

    In America, political majorities live or die at the intersection of two public yearnings: for freedom and for order. A century ago, in the Progressive Era, modern American liberalism was born, in historian Robert Wiebe's words, as a "search for order."

    And look how those "progressive" reforms in Government have turned out. Some for the good, but some not so. The republican genius of the Founders slips ever further away.

    We will progress even further, driven by the Team Zero.

  5. I knew there was something odd about this press release with Medeved. Recall that Sarkozy of France and Obama were hitting it off so well. Guess what just rolled off the press:

    France's Sarkozy says US missile system would not help European security
    By Associated Press

    7:24 AM EST, November 14, 2008

    NICE, France (AP) _ France's President Nicolas Sarkozy says putting a missile defense system in Europe would do nothing to help European security.

    Russia's President Dmitry Medvedev is arguing against any unilateral moves such as the U.S. plan to put missile defense facilities in Poland and the Czech Republic.

    The two presidents were speaking Friday after an EU-Russia summit in Nice.

    Sarkozy said missile defense facilities in Europe would only complicate the situation and do "nothing" for Europe's security.

State's supposed to be the big gig, given the magic pony dreams of this election. You need a Kissinger to fill that bill and State hasn't had that kind of push and pull, that general purpose cache, since...Kissinger.

    Factory Closings and Unrest in China
    Listen to this article. Powered by Odiogo.com
    This front page New York Times story on factory closings in the Pearl River delta covers ground already discussed in some detail on this blog. However, its report gives more detail on the resulting labor unrest.

    From the New York Times:

    For decades, the steamy Pearl River Delta area of southern Guangdong Province served as a primary engine for China’s astounding economic growth. But an export slowdown that began earlier this year and that has been magnified by the global financial crisis of recent months is contributing to the shutdown of tens of thousands of small and mid-size factories here and in other coastal regions, forcing laborers to scramble for other jobs or return home to the countryside....The slowdown in exports contributed to the closing of at least 67,000 factories across China in the first half of the year, according to government statistics. Labor disputes and protests over lost back wages have surged, igniting fear in local officials.

    After the shutdown of their shoe factory, called Weixu in Chinese and China Top Industries in English, Mr. Wang and some co-workers took to the streets in protest, demanding two months of back pay, or $440 on average. The government called in the riot police....

    Under pressure from Beijing to maintain social stability, local officials are also trying to tamp down unrest by doling out back wages. Here in Chang’an, after the worker protest, the government shelled out more than $1 million to pay back wages to most of the workers at the shoe factory. (Mr. Wang and some other laborers say they are still without back pay.)

    The slowdown in exports has accelerated a major shift in the nature of Chinese manufacturing: small factories that were already being pinched by rising costs of labor, transportation and raw materials, as well as by the appreciating yuan, are closing en masse....

    “There’s very serious damage being done down there, I don’t deny it, and I think it’ll get worse because we haven’t seen the full impact of the economic downturn in Europe,” said Arthur Kroeber, managing director of Dragonomics, an economic research and advisory firm based in Beijing. “I think next year we might see export growth in the country as a whole go down to 0 percent.”

    The export sector is still growing but has slowed considerably; year-on-year growth was at 9 percent in October compared with 26 percent in September 2007, Mr. Kroeber said.

    The social problems arising from the slowdown have stirred anxiety in the top leadership of the Communist Party, whose legitimacy is based on maintaining economic growth. Prime Minister Wen Jiabao is pushing for policies that will increase domestic consumer consumption to wean China off its reliance on exports. Last Sunday, the government unveiled a stimulus package worth $586 billion over the next two years — the largest ever announced in China — to help create jobs, mostly by building new transportation infrastructure.

    Foreign governments expecting China to take the lead in addressing the global crisis will be disappointed, say analysts and scholars. Chinese officials say they are focused on trying to ease domestic problems and keeping the country’s annual growth rate above 8 percent, which they see as vital to generating enough new jobs. Some analysts say economic expansion could drop to as little as 5.8 percent in the fourth quarter this year, down from about 11 percent in 2007.

    “I think China foresees that it’ll need to spend a lot of money to get itself out of the current domestic situation,” said Victor Shih, an assistant professor of political science at Northwestern University who studies the political economy of China. “On the global financial crisis, China will not take a leading role.”

    The mass layoffs have led to a profound change in the movements this year of migrant workers like Mr. Wang who spend virtually the entire year away from home. Many are heading home early for the Chinese New Year, in late January, and say they might not return to work in the coastal regions. A worker in the railway station in Guangzhou said that from Oct. 11 to Oct. 27, there were 1.17 million passengers on trains leaving the station, an increase of 129,000 over the same period last year. There have been reports of a similar jump in other regions.

  18. Yeah, I was searching for the right word. My buddy is the husband of a high ranking banker who was there for meetings. They have local folk who help them get around at times. We were also talking about how much freedom he had to travel whilst there: i.e. he went to Nanking and simply went up to an automated machine and bought a train ticket and, presumably, any Chinese person could as well. When I was there almost 20 years ago there was no way that could happen. Local Chinese folk needed permission to travel outside of their immediate locale and us foreigners had to navigate some pretty tricky lines and logistics at times. Anyway, all just anecdotal stuff.

  24. It was an interesting trip. A university friend had been over there for a number of years teaching English when an associate of his smashed his head in a drunken gall and ended up in a local hospital for quite a long time. In China the family feeds and cares for the patient and the doctors simply do health care proper. This guy had no family so his associated provided that function. My friend met and fell in love with a Chinese doctor. I got a wedding invitation and I couldn't pass up that opportunity so my girlfriend at the time and I journeyed into the middle of Hunan province to a rural town outside of Changsha called Xiantan (I think) and attended the traditional wedding. We then traveled with them to Sanya on Hainan Island. We were the only ones from the 'West' to make the wedding. It was truly an interesting trip staying in the family homes at times all this the January after Tiananmen Square protests. Incidentally, the brides brother was involved in those protests.

  25. We have quite a few Chinese students at the University of Idaho, and also at Lewis Clark State College. I'm not exactly sure what they do at LCSC though, take some language classes, I quess. I really don't know what kind of degree they'd get there, other than auto mechanics. LCSC is a four year school now, a full university, but it struggles along, trying to fill a niche here and there that others don't. We also have a good number of Russians here, but I don't really know any of them. I'm not sure what their story is, or how they got here, but there might be 3 or 4 hundred of them.

  31. TPM:

    ...some of the nation's top labor leaders gathered in DC yesterday to discuss a new campaign they're launching to secure passage of the Employee Free Choice Act, which would make it easier for workers to unionize in various ways. At the meeting, which was attended by top officials from the AFL-CIO and AFSCME, among others, the labor bigs talked about launching a huge nationwide field operation and the formation of a media fund to possibly go up on the air to push for the measure.

    It's worth noting that labor may in some ways play a different role this time than they did during the Clinton years. The big unions are hoping for a role more akin to the one they played during the campaign, staking out a populist left flank for the administration and helping push its evolving agenda.

    In other words, the big unions are envisioning more of a cooperative role with the administration than during the Clinton years, when the battles over NAFTA set up more of a confrontational situation. The more cooperative spirit is born largely of a sobering sense of just how big an opportunity the left and Dems have on their hands, and a desire not to blow it.

  32. Whit: Poor 'ol Obama. Finally a seat at the table only to find the cupboards bare.

    President Bush still has two months in office, and you are gloating that he has left the cupboards bare for Obama? That's a good thing? They aren't even pretending to use the bailout money to buy bad mortgage securities anymore, they are giving taxpayer's money directly to banks now, and those same banks are putting the money in reserves, paying CEO bonuses, and shareholder dividends. It's the biggest looting of the national treasury in history, Bush is presiding over this mass theft while deficits balloon to near a trillion dollars (to spread the pain of this crime to future generations), but it's all good because now Obama won't have enough money left over to give to his pet causes.

    Nowhere do I mention global warming, because as you say, it is a religion, and not based on any real science. In fact, I was the first to post here a link to documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle. I do talk about Peak Oil, because that's scientific fact. You have not addressed any of the points I've made, but rather attacked some phantom conceptions that have no relation to what I've been saying. There's a fundamental dishonesty here, and you should be ashamed of yourself. You talk of Nazi Brownshirts, I suggest you look in the mirror.

    The European Commission has proposed a new company to bring gas from central Asia to Europe via the Caspian Sea in a move likely to raise tensions at Friday’s meeting of EU and Russian leaders.

    The Caspian route, which would require the construction of a new pipeline, would enable the EU to bypass Russia in order to access the resources of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, which last month announced it had discovered one of the world’s biggest gas fields.

  58. Death

    Rockefeller died on the evening of Friday, January 26, 1979, at age 70 from a heart attack under circumstances whose details have never been completely revealed. Initial reports[16] said Rockefeller was at his office at Rockefeller Center working on a book about his art collection, and a security guard found him slumped over his desk. However, it was later disclosed that Rockefeller actually had the fatal heart attack in his 13 West 54th Street Manhattan townhouse in the presence of 26-year-old aide Megan Marshack. Some time later, Marshack had called her friend, news reporter Ponchitta Pierce, to the townhouse, and it was Pierce who phoned an ambulance approximately an hour after the heart attack.[17] Much speculation went on in the press regarding a sexual relationship between Rockefeller and Marshack.[18] Neither Marshack nor the family has commented since on the circumstances surrounding Rockefeller's death.


    At any rate he didn't die with his wife 'Happy' but he may have died happy.
