Several on this thread have said that the transportation is a federal government jet provided by “Obama” (the executive branch).

This is a flashback to last night. While he’s right, what good does it do you have to have an ass like this on your side, when you know he’ll go right out and say something that will hurt your cause tremendously within days?

God, McCain is talking like he is ready for a padded cell!

Is he medicated?? Or drunk?

If BO is smart, he’ll just sign the bill on Monday and provide no comments.

If he comments, the market stands a good chance of going down 500 points.

Hey, I've got a quick question for anyone who was watching Glenn Beck's show on FNC earlier: Did anyone catch the segment with The End of Prosperity co-author Stephen Moore? If so, what was that about the possibility of America's debt rating being downgraded?! Did anyone catch the entirety of what Moore was saying?

“If he comments, the market stands a good chance of going down 500 points.”

Add Geightner flapping his yap, too and we’ll likely see a real crash!

Frankly I think he’s wearing red because of what it stood for during the 20th Century.

sigh...him and his “neighbor” Ayers from chicago...it wasn’t a star, though...

I hate to be in the position of getting some satisfaction from watching the market tank under BO, but I can’t muster the will to be upset about it either.

This guy had all the answers last fall.

The U.S. government’s debt at the end of 2008 totaled $5.8 trillion, or about 41% of the nation’s total economic activity, or gross domestic product. By the end of 2010, Moody’s expects the nation’s debt load to increase to $9 trillion, bringing the ratio of the nation’s debt to its GDP to 62%. The U.K.’s ratio of debt to GDP is also expected to jump, while Germany’s debt compared to its output, about 40% of GDP, will likely increase to just 47% by 2010. France’s debt ratios also aren’t likely to rise more than 10%.

If the tie were to back away from the subject, you may find that it was zoomed up on the star. ;-)

A nice, conservative college for the younguns is now out of the question.

I’ll be lucky to be able to afford ITT.

Thank You, Congress

Don’t look now, but there may be tuition assistance in this bill. Everything else is in there.

I don’t want it.
That was the plan...no student loans.
We almost had it, too.
Ah well, maybe the good Lord has other plans.
