David Swanson, WarIsACrime.org: ''We are not out of money. We have stopped taxing billionaires and corporations, and we are funding war-preparation so generously that we are sparking a global arms race that will eventually generate some enemies with which to justify the war preparation... which will make sense to students who were never taught to put events into chronological order. Funding teachers doesn t destroy our environment, erode our civil liberties, hollow out our economy, antagonize the world, or kill anyone.''

Obama Says One Thing in Spotlight, Another Behind Closed Doors

Kevin Zeese, October 2011: ''Obama is taking corporate trade to new levels [with] the increased jurisdiction of corporate trade tribunals, the lack of regulation for banks and financial institutions and the extension of patents to protect drug profits. It is no wonder, especially during an election year, that the TPP [Trans-Pacific Partnership] and especially the U.S. proposals are being kept secret. The president does not want the public to know that what he is saying in the spotlight of the campaign trail is the opposite of what he is negotiating behind closed doors on behalf of his corporate donors.''
