Did "Krugman gets the facts wrong" throw you when you read it briefly?

Easy..... Democrats have never had the party cohesiveness of Republicans and never will. About 20% of Democrats particularly from the south practically caucus with the Republicans.

Not specifically....but if there is a bigger credit whore in the Senate, I don't know who it would be in the entire USAMBNA.

No time to argue this but I think you may find this of interest: http://www.rgemonitor.com/us-monitor/25375...nie_and_freddie

Followed by everyone missing their credit card payment and going into a 30% universal default. Fun times ahead.

They will probably keep this vote open all day if they have to.

Stunning.

Are you referring to the credit card companies' whore in Delaware? Actually I tend to think getting Biden out of the Senate and into the VP slot might be a public good.

Diplomacy is a means of getting what you want. If Osama Bin Laden is willing to sit down to discuss how he should be killed and his organization dismantled, we should do it. And all this nonsense aside, Iran and the US potentially have huge areas of mutual interest as it pertains to theater politics, Iraqi border issues and potentially trade......remember all those years of talks with the Soviet Union when we still had missiles pointed at each other. Good diplomacy isn't about giving away, it is about getting more.

Relax. What are the chances of someone with a history of melanoma in his 70's taking on one of the most stressful jobs in the world ever becoming incapacitated? it'll never happen.

Let me get this straight....Rush is saying that the Democrats are to blame for the House Republicans walking out and not passing a Republican presidents bailout bill on their own. David H. Koresh.

The trouble with that is that the VP job is mostly about tie-breaking votes in the Senate, and waiting for the President to die.

Oh, those whiny liberals at the Bill Buckley's National Review, eh?

The riot is that anyone can be as militantly and aggressively feeble-minded as the content of this post.

Best player/coach the Chiefs ever had. Sleep well Reggie....old time hockey.

I thought McCain won the debate.....however, not making eye contact and at the same time calling someone "naive" is not a very good strategy for attracting independent women. Strange, but McCain thumping "I'm the Mavrick" actually makes Obama look more circumspect and safe... Good debate.

I always thought of him as the pedophile brother of the Quiet Riot singer.

The trouble with putting the House in charge of financing this thing is that all of them stand for re-election in less than 1000 hours from now.

That was Cartier.

He even juggles cats. Not very humane. Not very humane at all.

That's the market at work. And yes, I have to agree that given those variables the decision gets very murky.

The real question should be, how many Americans would trade a 2"x4" flag for a slice of pizza the same size? If it is good pizza, and I'm hungry, I make that deal.

11" x 18" Plastic American Flag Price (ea) 1–11 $0.49 12–35 $0.30 36–1439 $0.25 1440+ $0.20 If all fish were wrapped in plastic flags it would be more expensive than newsprint. But once you've caught over 1440 fish - it becomes a little more economical to use plastic flag wrap.

We all await the NFL announcement that the season will be canceled. No Brady = No Football. Simple as that. The upside is the Bills finish undefeated.

I don't think she has anything to gain by going on the "Meet the Press" type shows. I think a good campaign manager would send her right to the States and get her on the stump.
