I am waiting for Willard to reach out and put his arm on Newt like he did with Perry...
Senior economic advisers to Barack Obama, the then US president-elect, turned away from a supersized fiscal stimulus because they doubted its practicality, according to a December 2008 internal memo.
The 57-page memo from Lawrence Summers, then the incoming director of the economic bureaucracy in the White House, lays out the thinking of the Obama administration in unprecedented detail. The memo was obtained by The New Yorker magazine.

Mitt Romney Blasts Fannie Mae And Freddie Mac’s ‘Failures’ While Profiting From Them
The Boston Globe noted today that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, who has a habit of lambasting the “failures” of government-backed mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, has been profiting from investments in the two firms:
On his financial disclosure statement filed last month, Romney reported owning between $250,001 and $500,000 in a mutual fund that invests in debt notes of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, among other government entities. Over the previous year, he had reported earning between $15,001 and $50,000 in interest from those investments.
And unlike most of Romney’s financial holdings, which are held in a blind trust that is overseen by a trustee and not known to Romney, this particular investment was among those that would have been known to Romney.
As Mother Jones’ Andy Kroll noted, this particular fund of Romney’s “also included investments in Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, and JPMorgan Chase. If Romney invested in those banks in the second half of 2007, as a campaign aide says he did, then Romney’s investments benefited from the federal bailout of those banks, which received tens of billions of dollars to stay afloat.”

Yeah, you should’ve seen the beautiful 11x11 mailer of Romney’s I got in the mail. Glossy paper, nice picture of Mitt and lots of fluff. This is the 4th mailer in the last week. The other 3 were ‘Newtralized’ on Saturday. This one is already boring and nothing new.
Paul blows it with Vietnam...Doesn’t know how close we were to total victory save for democrats.
Sooooo boring, anyone normal tunned out ages ago
I grew up in San Jose, and for many years we would only eat Chinese food at Fung Lum on S. Bascom. They closed their business a few years ago, and I still miss it! Did you ever eat there?
Fishing expedition for headlines and soundbites that can be used against the people.
Ron Paul: “I don’t even know why the Cuban people feel so intimidated”
There goes the Cuban-American vote
RuPaul just lied again. HE WAS NOT DRAFTED.
THe Air Force never in it’s history had a draft. I think
RuPaul has dementia.
Now you know why nbc doesnt have it on alot of local nbc stations...they knew no one would watch it..
