I knew we had a lot in common...in spite of that yankee thing. Hehehe.....I've been know to throw things too. I used to lay in bed every morning and try to think up ways to get out of going to school so I could go back to sleep. If God had meant for people to see the sunrise He'd have made it come up later.

Lieberman Can't Recall Citigroup Contributions

Senate Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Joseph Lieberman said Friday that he couldn't remember the exact amount of campaign cash he'd accepted over the years from Citigroup, whose chairman Robert Rubin he has yet to call to testify before his Enrongate probe.

During an interview with radio host Don Imus, the Connecticut Democrat acknowledged accepting $2,000 in contributions from Enron, prompting this exchange:

IMUS: Well, what did you get from Citigroup?

LIEBERMAN: More, but I couldn't tell you the amount.

IMUS: Was it, like, $10,000?

LIEBERMAN: Ah - I honestly don't know. I'd say it was ...

IMUS: How about a million?

LIEBERMAN: Oh, no. It was definitely somewhere between $10,000 and ...

IMUS: Was it a million and a babe?

LIEBERMAN: (Laughing) A million and naming rights for some building here on my compound. (End of Excerpt)

In fact, over the past six years, Citigroup gave Lieberman $59,256, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

The hefty sum makes Robert Rubin's firm by far the single largest contributor to the Connecticut Democrat's campaign coffers since 1996.

Asked whether Rubin will be appearing before his committee, Lieberman said he hadn't made a final decision. "My intention is to end these hearings in September or October," he told Imus, indicating that if Rubin was called it would be before the November election.

When pressed why he refused to commit to calling Rubin, Lieberman protested, "Hey, this is not political."

The response prompted audible guffaws from Imus and his crew.

IMUS may be a liberal suck up sometimes, but he calls them on the obvious!

I see someone is suing Martha for stock losses

Not that I am a fan of Martha's .. but there is a law suit that needs to be thrown out of court

Instead of teaching kids "Heather has two mommies", basic education should teach some economics 101 before graduation.

When I was in NC, IMUS was on the local sports radio station. I would listen to him while I was getting ready for work and on my drive in. Now its not worth the effort to turn on MSNBC and watch pictures of his ranch and commercials for 40 minutes out of every hour.

My mom was a nurse, I could only fake a stomach ache or fever a couple days out of the year.
