Chris Dodd Having Trouble Selling AIG Blazers
Chris Dodd is a liar & a cheat. How many bribes did he accept from AIG, Countrywide, real estate interests & other financial institutions. I think it's interesting that AIG "encoraged" employees to contribute to dipshit Dodd & wanted to collect the names. Shouldn't we remove him since he's plenty worse than the CEO of GM?
G20 Summit
The upcoming G20 summit will be interesting. Most likely there will be little agreement. I sure hope they don't ask Obama any tough questions about guns and butter;-) I bet Joe the Plummer could do a better job. He's certainly more qualified and experienced.
I want a burger from Carl's Jr.....
I've always like burgers. After seeing this ad I'm really needing a Carl's Jr. burger, but the nearest one is in OK. It's only 400 miles away. Maybe she delivers;-)
Auto Handout Idiocy
Why do we continue to throw good money after bad? The car companies don't need anymore money. They need to simply go through bankruptcy. It's not that hard to do & it might even be less painful than the current slow death course. Dozens of airlines have done it & came out just fine. One airline even did it twice. Someone needs to grab the checkbook out of OSpendamas hands.
Calamari to take over @ Kentucy...
Coach Cal has been good for Memphis. Now it seems that he'll be retiring to fabled Kentucky. He'll get some big bucks. Will his magic turn around the program that's faltered for the last 10-12 yrs? For an eight year deal he doesn't have to turn it around, only try hard.
Obama adds troops to the war in AfganiPoppyStan
21,000 more troops....on with the war....I do hope the new troops kill lots of Taliban & Al-Quida....

Obama is Clueless on Economics
I ran across a nice piece discussing the sad state of affairs with Obama & Geitner on Economics. Cleraly Geitner was a poor choice & doing worse than anyone could imagine. The economic dream team is clearly a nightmare for all concerned. Obama remains inexperienced & clueless on economics & finance. I guess he didn't actually take those courses @ Harvard. He must have taken underwated basketweaving & spin doctor 101 instead. I think he'd make a great used car salesman. I do admire Obams's trying to tackle many things at once. I don't think it's necessarily part of the problem. If he tackled fewer items it doesn't mean he'd do a better job. Strategy is severely lacking. Worse yet the true economics point to a certain depression. Obama is on his way to giving us 14% unemployment. Fixing the economy isn't rocket science. It's been done before & can be done again w/ tax cuts, incentives for small business, reduced government regulation, etc.... We can't spend our way out of this mess. I fear most for our children as their future may lie outside the US.

MLB.TV Blackouts are Evil
A few years ago I got MLB.TV and watched a bunch of games & it was pretty cool. Since then they've added the some cool features, but have added a nasty blackout feature. If you're in a variable radius of 300 - 2393 miles you get blacked out. This not only includes home games but the road games which could be 3000 miles away. I live in Memphis which contains STL, ATL & CIN. I understand the first two, but 400 miles to Cincinnati. Now I'm sure there's a bunch of folks that are going to get out of work @ 5PM and drive to Cincinnati for that 7:05PM start. That's an 1:05 due to the time change to drive 400 miles. Does my car go 390MPH?
How about if I live in Hawaii. I guess I'd have to miss the Angels, Padres & Dodgers. Wrongo. I can't watch the Giants(2393mi), but can watch the A's & all other teams.
I guess the most sensible workaround is to use a cc that has a zipcode in Hawaii assuming you're not a Giants fan.

The Ungrateful United Nations
If the UN doesn't like how we pay I think we should simply not pay anything. The UN doesn't support our efforts worldwide, it coddles terrorists, supports regimes that cause the world's problems & has the unmitigated gaul to complain about our payments. Now is the right time to pull out of the UN and evict them from NY. Maybe they should find a new home in Tehran?

Here's a few of the lies
