Retain brainpower?

Seems like we can all agree that Mullaly is doing a great job at Ford. GM and Chrysler will never be able to attract a Mullaly. They will be stuck with the folks that created alot of the mess they are currently in. I've heard many a union member say that when you cut their compensation, it's a race to the bottom. Why wouldn't that same logic apply here. I understand the emotion of the issue. But weren't these companies bailed out so that they could eventually excel?

Tough to do with both hands tied behind your back.

Justices

aquaman,

I would view Alito's comments as acceptable. However, what would not be acceptable is if he stated he could more often come up with a better ruling because he was a white male with that background than a Latino female.

IMHO, two very different comments.

Emma,

If I understand your post fully, you are chastising me for posting facts, but you did not post any facts that dispute the facts that I posted. One can only conclude that you did care for the facts. Not much I can do to help you there. Thanks for a good Saturday evening chuckle!!

I realize there is much emotion here, but let's at least have some bi-partisan accuracy here.

FACT CHECK: Obama disowns deficit he helped shape

Apr 29, 5:55 PM (ET)

By CALVIN WOODWARD

(AP) President Barack Obama speaks during a town hall meeting Wednesday, April 29, 2009, at Fox Senior...

WASHINGTON (AP) - "That wasn't me," President Barack Obama said on his 100th day in office, disclaiming responsibility for the huge budget deficit waiting for him on Day One.

It actually was him - and the other Democrats controlling Congress the previous two years - who shaped a budget so out of balance.

And as a presidential candidate and president-elect, he backed the twilight Bush-era stimulus plan that made the deficit deeper, all before he took over and promoted spending plans that have made it much deeper still.

Going green hasn't helped California

Truth be told, there is no such thing as man made global warming. It is simply a reason to introduce a global tax.

Stunning how many seemingly bright folks have blindly jumped on the express.

You noted that the demonstration was made up of white middle aged tax cheats. So you're saying that Obama appointees attended...kool!!!!!

Knowing your contempt for Mr. Finley, Mr. Beckman and Paul W, you might find Libby Spencer's blog more to your liking.
