PELOSI PERFIDY RE CIA

nancy pelosi either was or was not briefed on interagation techniques. i think she was and she has lied. flinging mud at the cia for a clandestine plan to kill senior terrorists and not briefing congress on an effort that was never operational is deplorable. it misses the point. it is an act of misdirection.

as regards the cia's plans to knock off senior terrorists; what took them so long?

CIT: NOT TOO BIG TO FAIL BUT TOO IMPORTANT

just how dumb is our government? dont answer that question. the geniuses at the fed, fdic etc. have decided that cit doesnt represent systemic risk; it is not too big to fail. this both misses the point and may be wrong.

CIT is one of the most important financiers of small to medium size companies in america. if it fails the gap will NOT be filled adequately and or fast enough. who is going to do it? so by letting cit fail, they are putting 1 million american businesses at risk. these are the companies that create jobs and the owners of which the democrats want to tax to pay for universal health care

WALK IN THE WOODS II AND III

oh well, first the woods moved to argentina, then the trees turned into a bush. what the hell. true love is ok too. just a little messy and embarrassing

HEALTH CARE REFORM WITHOUT TORT REFORM?

reform must be one of the most abused words in the world. we clearly need healthcare reform of some sort. president obama made a speech recently where he said the while malpractice expense is a problem he was against caps on malpractice judgements.

without fixing malpractice, we are left with the excess procedures of defensive medicine and excessive insurance rates.

A WALK IN THE WOODS

governor mark sanford went for a walk in the woods. he probably should have told someone; including his unfriend the lieutenent governor. maybe something will come out that will indicate he is a whack job. i have been a fan of his. personally, i think if more politicians walked the appalacian trail and more were fit enough to do so, we would be better off

THE MOUSE THAT ROARED

justice ginsberg clearly looks like a mouse. she however has acted like a lion. in the face of the obama administration doing violence to creditors rights, the bedrock of capital markets, she said NO.

WOW.

who knows what will ultimately happen but at least someone was brave enough to say that political expediency is not everything
