Missed one. The feds are bailing out citigroup to the tune of 332 billion. This is beyond absurd. How much paper money are they going to keep throwing away on paper. It's really irrelevant to the overall economy. They should be pumping the money into main street, not wall street. It's all about bogus paper on wall street. It's getting ridiculous.

One Minnesota Voter Really Didn't Like Their Choices

I guess the good word about the Lizard People didn't get out in time.

Gov. Tom Vilsack won't be Sec of Argriculture!?!?!? WHAT!?!?!? Who would be better than the job than Vilsack? Someone please let me know.

This place just isn't the same without the swearing.

A Nancy Pilosi interregnum would be such a treat and a lifeline for The Republic,,,,, the Bush death watch is going to be as disasterous as Buchanan's and Hoover's.

Impeachment didn't work,,,,, wonder about the possibility of a quick rendition of the two to somewhere in the middle of nowhere. Cheney would be allowed to take along his bird gun, and W his Playstation.

I've no love for the auto exec's, but Congress wants a plan from them before they get taxpayer's money, what about the banks,insurance and other "too big to fail" trough feeders.

Notice on that Sunday show round up video that George Wil made sure there were no economic Nobel prize winners on to laugh at him when he said the original New Deal did not work (though I'm sure Krugman was laughing at home). Of course he'll next be claiming that it was WWII that ended our depression when it actually prolonged it. The man is a hopelessly pathetic shrill for the wealthy.

Question: Why would Obama allow the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy to continue when the government is seeking maximum tax payer funds for the economic disaster??? What could possibly be the point, the idea behind that decision??? Allowing the wealthy to profiteer a little longer while the rest of us suffer???.

And for those claiming Obama is a centrist technocrat who never claimed to be progressive liberal and never campaigned as if he were I ask:
Did he not claim he was for a national health care plan?

Did he not claim he would withdraw troops from Iraq and end our involvement there?

Did he not promise diplomatic relations with Iran?

Did he not promise to end the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy and cut taxes on the poor and middle class?

Did he not promise more social programs to decrease the number of abortions in this country?

Did he not claim he would give tax breaks and other incentives to reward companies keeping jobs here in America and penalize companies outsourcing jobs to other countries for cheap labor?

Did he not say "Yes we can" and We are the change we've been looking for or waiting for?" and if the country polls that it has moved center left one would assume Obama is part of that same change that "WE ARE", right?

Did he not promise to change the way business is done in Washington and if the way business is done in Washington is that the dems have catered to and capitulated to republicans on every issue the last 2yrs and governed center right that this is what must change rather than expect a continuation of the same old way business is done in Washington?

This sounds like a very progressive liberal agenda to me.
Now we are supposed to accept that we were projecting our own beliefs of liberalism on Obama and that he never gave the impression that he was a progressive liberal. We were just projecting liberalism on him??? Now where would I get such an idea?
