Month: June 2010

All the taxpayer money spent to bailout the banks has been repaid, and based on the interest we were charging them, we are making a profit (or a surplus) of at least $23 billion.

Last evening, Nemski, Cassandra and I met with State Treasurer Velda Jones-Potter. I am sure my colleagues will offer their opinions of the meeting as well, but I wanted to offer my take. I was impressed with her, and also the simplicity of her message. LiberalGeek has met Chip Flowers and is impressed with him and his plan to remake the Treasurer's office. It looks like the primary for the Democratic nomination features two able and bright candidates with two different visions of the office and what it can and should do.

So Soccer, or European or Global Football (as opposed to American football), is now apparently an super duper evil horrible destructive LIBERAL socialist plot to take over America, except of course we liberals have already taken over America, what with our devious democratic elections and what not, so of course now Soccer is an super duper evil horrible destructive LIBERAL socialist plot to destroy America. No, this is not from the Onion.
