Well…was thinking this was going to be one of those days where I had nothing to say but then ole Newt came through and gave me one thing to talk about but there is also the Israeli thing that Obama is in the middle of. Let’s start with Obama….of course the right is going out of its mind with what they perceive to be a slight of Israel and a lack of support for the traditional relationship. I think they missed the point of Obama’s statements…there has been a stalemate in the talks between the Palestinians and Israel and all that Obama did was kick the hornet’s nest to stir things up a little and get them off the dime….geez…doesn’t anyone understand politics?
Then, we have ole Newt talking about the 500K that he and his third wife owed to Tiffany’s, describing it as the “standard, no interest account”…yeah, Newt? In whose world is any charge account no interest? It is just another instance where the rich are treated differently than the rest of us and don’t see anything wrong with it. They can’t understand why the rest of us don’t get those deals…or even better they just don’t care. How out of touch is Newt and how can he even relate to anyone but the rich…not the type of person this nation needs as its president….geez…
One last thing, to those of you out there that were opposed to the bailouts of the auto companies since they were a “sinkhole” and we would never get our money back…..Chrysler paid off the loans today…in full….this is the kind of thing only government can do or will do to ensure that 30,000 people didn’t lose their jobs…..what do you say now repubs? How many more times will you be wrong? geez….
