During a news conference, an Iraqi reporter threw his shoes (a famous Middle Eastern insult and a very serious breech of protocol) at the President's head and called him a dog. Bush had to duck to keep from being hit. Now, that's the way to make an exit from the Presidency. I hope the reporter gets out of prison soon. He's got spunk, that guy.

Blagojevich makes me ashamed for the Democratic party. I say: Could we pull a Rush Limbaugh trick and just say he's a Republican with enough vehemence that none of our listeners will question us and begin repeating to everyone they know that Blagojevich is a Republican. It worked that way when Rush asserted that Henry Paulson was a Democrat. Aunt Sam says: Nice. Blagojevich makes me ashamed for the Democratic party.

Barack resigned early from his senate seat to give his replacement seniority. But the governor hadn't gotten around to choosing someone, and the fed investigation of him began to fear that <strong>being appointed to the Senate seat would be a pay-to-play scenario</strong>. Nice. Blagojevich makes me ashamed for the Democratic party. Blagojevich was arrested!

It looks like the automakers will get a bailout of some sort after all. Think of all the jobs being saved! Thanks politicians. And thanks especially to Nancy Pelosi for jamming this through Congress! But wait a minute.... Where are they getting the money? From the TARP - that unsupervised tsunami of cash sweeping over the banks and Wall Street? Nope. From Big Oil, who wants things to stay just the way they are until there is no more oil to plunder? Nope, the congress did not touch petro with a use tax of any sort. No, the money comes from the fund to help the Big 3 automakers retool in order to begin building cars that use alternative fuels. And... the gas prices that we all are so thrilled to see are dropping like a stone - they are coming down, in a one-two sucker punch, to knock down the alternative fuel and energy business for another decade. Who says massive campaign contributions don't work anymore? But don't mind me - I've just been working in the Federal government too long.... Yeah, that's probably it. Wow!
