I missed most of the last few weeks due to work load.

How to spend a billion bucks and get nothing for it. or better yet how to buy a billion bucks worth of votes while tanking the economy in the process.

Meanwhile, over on CNN the topic of the day is tax cuts for the rich.


Yep, the media treats Democrats as if they are their favorite sports team, supporting them no matter how bad the score or how many games they've lost. Only, the score here is wrecking real people's lives.

Canada has more control over banking and mortgages and does not have a mortgage interest tax deduction. All of which helped them not get into the phony derivatives, etc scandal that we have had to weather.

I don’t know about Wall Street but certainly there is a mood of optimism in the air. At least, there is here.

I think all of us are hearing similar comments by GOP candidates. Stopping the upcoming healthcare debacle, no to tax & trade or union card check, etc. Also entering is talk of making the Bush tax cuts permanent. Some of the better candidates are including lowering business capital gains taxes to help small businesses.

No matter what the Dems say, or claim, the proof facing everyone is high unemployment. I don’t know anyone who isn’t either unemployed themselves or who does not know someone who is unemployed.

Seniors too. Their normal COLA has been suspended for three years and every tick of rising costs is killing them if they don’t have substantive outside income. 0 and congress get fat raises, their supporters all get goodies and seniors are left to suffer. Add the loss of Medicare Advantage and seniors as a group are really unhappy. Nothing any Democrat can say overcomes that, which is why they try to change the conversation when it’s brought up.

Hi! I am just now checking in. I went to early mass and then to my sister’s for coffee.

Looks like I didn’t miss much, except I did see some rumblings elsewhere that Thomas Friedman was being sort of critical of Obama. I got on here and didn’t see anything, so maybe no one saw him or maybe it was wishful thinking.

I don’t know what to think about the Delaware race. Fishtalk has made a good argument for O’Donnell, and elsewhere I have see some criticism of her by conservative sites that normally would back someone like her.

Therefore, I am keeping my head down and not taking sides, since I figure Delaware will get it all sorted out without any input from me.

Welcome and good morning!

Friedman was like a husband or wife who knows their spouse is wrong but has to say loving words to keep peace in the family. So it was basically criticism followed by excuses and reasons why it is what it is. Add Krugman to the panel and it was a mutual admiration society meeting.

Good point. All those IOU's for Social Security Trust fund are due, and Democrats have been wrecking the budget since they won the mid-term elections in 2006.

GOOD to hear from you! I’m for Christine because I’m against the fossil House incumbent Mike Castle who will reliably vote with the Senate Republicans 50% of the time, like a typical Northeasterner. Chris Christie endorsed Castle, which I found a little surprising, primarily because he called him a conservative! Oy vey!

Democrats create trillions of dollars out of thin air to pay their donors and supporters but cannot seem to find the few billions needed to support seniors, many of whom are on fixed incomes.

No wonder progressives and the Dems think everything’s okay. When we drive past them we’re laughing our heads off seeing their 0 bumper stickers.

In less than a month folks with Medicare Advantage (including yours truly) will get the notices as to the availability of the program next year, including premium increases and/or benefit cuts, or cancellations. THEN we will hear what seniors really feel about Obamacare.

Many seniors have been told. They don’t believe it or they think it will happen to everyone else but not themselves.

The official plan info goes out on 10-1-2010. Reality will set in pretty quickly.

The heavy rains are on the East side of the hurricane. Y’all were on the West, which usually has less rain unless it’s real close.

Down here in the Alabama, when Ia hurricane hits Mississippi, Louisiana or East Texas we get lots of rain, but if it curls up East of us through Georgia then forget it. Then again, a direct hit (Opal, Ivan, Georges) means lots of rain and wind, tornadoes, trees down, no power—forget it! Not worth it then.

Of course, as socialists go he’s at least better than Gordon Brown. (Or is he—as Brown was rather spectacularly ineffective?)
