Report: Obama to Control
Half of $700B Bailout
White House reportedly tells Paulson that Bush will leave $350B untouched when he leaves office Jan. 20
Hiya Clint! =^..^=
BTW, what is the Browns’ mascot? An orange helmet?
It’s crunch time.
Re:Obama DVD ... I’m sure his birth certificate will be prominently displayed.

Hi rwi!
The person who would set up this thread, whom you call a “slacker” is very busy with running a small business, that I was told last week.
Your welcome in return!
Last week, with one exception, and that was the day that all of FR frozed up, this thread has been getting posts up to the 100s. Been helping ritm getting posters to come. The day FR broke down again, this thread only got into the 20s.
Hmmmm.... I thought there was only $80B left.

Who needs the last 20 minutes when the last 5 monutes is all they need.
Yeah, another point being the ‘opportunity cost’ of Paulsen/Bush/Obama spending $700 billion. How many job opportunities are lost because the government is deficit spending on market speculation? Thanks Congressional Democrats and you Republicans that got free back-scratchers to go along. It’s no wonder I want to see Coleman suffer a million recounts, though I voted for him, it was a vote against Al Franken
Their mascot is some stupid looking dog. I have no idea what it’s name is.
Let’s see if the orange helmets with the numbers come out tonight.
If Roddy White would have caught that late TD yesterday, I would have won fantasy for the second straight week. Oh well.
These SoCal fires are pretty bad, no?
At the bell DJIA DOWN 200.
Wheeeeeeee!!!
That last hour is a be-otch!
Wahoooooo
My office has heat again! Yayayayaya. (I thought for a second the state hadn’t paid its bills. *LOL*)
It makes ho sense. 0zero can't ignore it forever.
She said white ash was all over everything.
BTW, did I read Anderson going to start?
Pat, can you hear me?
HEY PAT, TURN UP THE EARPIECE!!!
Pat is here to provide the Protectionist point of view?
If the NYSlime doesn’t print a 128-point Sunday headline about an event and stuff three or four copies up somebody’s...er, nostril to catch their attention, those hosers inside the Beltway wouldn’t pay any attention to the Crack of Doom.
...or they’d come up with a trillion-dollar bailout to try and buy off Gabriel.
I just spent some time with my tile guy. He and his brother came here from Romania. Today, his cousin was with him. We had quite a conversation.
They came here for a better life, but they don’t understand why people would rather be poor (sitting on their butts waiting for their welfare check) than WORK to make their lives better. “Better opportunities in America if you work for it.”
We talked about politics, too, of course. Adrian was explaining to me that most folks in Europe don’t get excited about a leader until he’s been in office for a couple years, and then only if he / she has done a good job. Obama mania has them scratching their heads.
Sergie said: “He looks good. He sounds good. Why are people so excited about him when he hasn’t done anything”?
It was exhilarating to me to hear there are still some immigrants who actually APPRECIATE being here, and they’re willing to work as hard as they have to for a good life.
I just wanted to share it with you guys.
