just give them the money
it's not the big three's fault that you, congress, casually dished out $700 billion to wall street without even a fraction of the scrutiny you're giving to chrysler, ford, and gm in a silly show of new found concern about taxpayers' money.
no one's buying cars right now- foreign hybrids or gas guzzling F-150s. people don't have jobs. many don't have homes.
i hope the country holds congress accountable if they allow this industry and all of its related small, medium and large businesses to collapse. i hope we remember who voted against this when thousands of workers, retirees and their families lose their health care and pensions.
it seems a little crazy that part of congress's prosecution is about health care liabilities. these companies and uaw are being questioned and punished for giving their workers health insurance? yeah, their production costs are going to be a little higher when they are competing against countries where health care is considered a right for its citizens.
these hearings make me sick.

seriously, Obama?
the day after the GA senate runoff, you have your folks send an email requesting a $15 donation in exchange for a holiday mug. seriously?
it's a nice mug. but a message that the 59th or 60th democratic senate seat is worth fighting for would have been better. could we not have sent an email asking 13 million of your supporters to donate $15 to martin's campaign? that wouldn't have been more worthy of an email blast? seriously?
granted, martin probably would have lost anyways. but he probably wouldn't have lost by 17 points. you're the leader of the party now and you literally phoned in your help to the campaign. not a very good example. seriously.

VP-elect gives shout-out to Palin
Jonathan Martin, now blogless, emails the classic contrast between Joe Biden's prepared remarks today and what he actually said,
As prepared: "And Governor Palin, your being here today sends a powerful message that when campaigns end, we are all partners in progress. Thank you."
As delivered: “And Governor Palin, I want to thank you particularly. I might point out, as I told you, we walked in. Since the race is over, no one pays attention to me at all. So I'm -- maybe you will walk outside with me or something later and say hello to me," prompting laughs from all, but an especially loud one from Tim Kaine.
