I don't know about the rest of you, but I am laughing so hard it's starting to hurt.

Yes, I saw that and switched channels to the Senate coverage, only to see Blimp Kennedy talking. Then, I started listening to Rush again, and he is talking about his golf game.

Think I'll watch Hallmark Channel. Can't go wrong with Matlock, even if they are reruns.

The old Blimp is way out of bounds. How can he think all the numbers on the charts will be true 15 years from now?

He doesn't care whether what he says is true.

I know he doesn't. He wants to distort anything that is proposed by Republicans.

I listen to Kennedy & my stomach twists. Why does he keep insisting that tax cuts should be given to folks who pay no taxes?

I think he knows lots of people don't know the difference for one reason or another.

Baucus is trying to tie cap gains tax cuts to the performance of the stock market, rather than to the economy. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have a degree in economics.

I know many people who buy stocks that pay good dividends. And, I am one of them.

I have some stocks that pay dividends...and my broker told me last week....that if we want to see the economy come to a quick HALT...then stop the tax cuts on the dividends.

He is on the money. Many economists feel the same way.
