Ever notice how much our 3 branches of government resemble The Three Stooges?

Moe = The Supreme Court.

Larry = Congress.

Curly or Shemp = President Obama For Sure.

I once read a psychologist's analysis about why The Three Stooges are still so popular. He said it's because the Three Stooges represent the 3 stages in a man's life:

Curly or Shemp = The Child

Larry = The Adolescent

Moe = The Adult

Larry is the key mediator who is always trying to balance the forces of the adult Moe and child Curly.

Are we seeing these same stages playing out in our government, with Larry the adolescent mediator (Congress) trying to balance the forces of Moe (the Supreme Court) against Curly (The President)?

We had an industrialized economy in the United States until private enterprise outsourced our major manufacturing with the US Chamber of Commerce and Republican Party's blessings.

The 3 Stooges who broke our economy are proof the Republicans should get out of government and politics.

The Republicans didn’t see a problem with the Gramm Leach Bliley law when it was written. Most Democrats didn’t either. Now Republicans aren’t doing anything to repair the damage and prevent recurrences. Democrats aren’t doing enough.
