Ed, I’ve also heard Rush mention you and HA a few times; have you measured whether or not your readership has increased? I’d guess it has from the positive comments he makes about you.

Ed, You have just qualified for understatement of the year.

Just like Clinton and all his illegal doings, the cover-up is sometimes worse than the crime. Geithner knew last year and lying about it just makes him look Clintonesque. HE STILL SHOULD BE FIRED.

That part seems to be a bit of a contradiction when giving AIG a free pass.

Our country was messed with when it was sold to the Third World; the coup de grace being 2003 when offshoring took off. Only now are we able to do something about it. Try having a whole region being smitten down for a generation; and having one single good shot at setting things right.

The law specifically stating the bonuses to be included in the Stimulus was unconstitutional to start with. Taxing it 90% adds to the screw up, not fix it. These people are morons.
