In 2008, Reese's editorial was updated with some topical political references (e.g., Nancy Pelosi's name in place of Tip O'Neill's; the Army and Marines listed as being in Iraq rather than on "U.N. Missions") and circulated via e-mail under the title "The 545 People Responsible for America's Woes" (or just "545 People), often with additional material not written by Reese himself tacked onto the beginning or end of the article.
Mr. Reese's comments are very pertinent. It would be great if they became a catalyst for change like Pearl Harbor or . . . 9/11.
At least this time they have the American people pointed in the right direction to vent their ire, that is, pointed at their elected representatives.
Mr. Reese has gently lobbed the ball into the people's court.
All they have to do is slam it down the throat of Congress like Jimmy Connors or John McEnroe would.
You'd think that after the big financial bailouts of the Obama administration's first term, and with April just around the corner the words "tax revolt" would be heard more in conversation.

Hmm I am confused... When a fella like Jared Loughner comes along and takes out the trash, you all whine about how crazy he is, and pray for the politicians recovery. Not advocating what he did, but I do not understand. You hate them yet support them at the same time.

Very observant,
Very true.
But we forgot something,
Me and you.
We forget and
We overlook
The true mastermind,
The real type of crook.
Politicians scramble,
Politicians plan, but
They are guided by
An invisible hand...
From within their castles,
Within their lairs,
The banksters plot
Dreadful affairs.
They care not who
Gets in their way
For they will destroy
And they will slay.
They have targeted
The middle class
And will lie, cheat and steal
To kick their a$$.
It's a secret war
And most are unaware
That these evil bastards
Just don't freaking care.
With tainted riches
And printed notes,
They buy their bitches
Essential votes.
And once in office,
The elected must repay
Their debts to banksters
And special interests at play.
In the end,
It's the Golden Rule that wins,
And banksters have the gold
From which to wash their sins.
