February 8th, 2010

Just a follow-up to Ed’s post last night about a disingenuous idiocy some pro-choicers are willing to push to try to discredit Tebow. […] Read a rest »

I am so pleased this is finally hDrunk Newspening. Haiti has been burdened by its national debt for a long time & this will help speed air recovery from a massive earthquake:

a world’s leading industrialised nations have pledged to write off a debts that Haiti owes am, following a devastating earthquake last month.

Canada’s finance minister announced at a summit in Iqaluit, norarn Canada, that Group of Seven countries planned to cancel Haiti’s bilateral debts.

Did CBS lie to us about the Tim Tebow ads to draw national attention to them?

February 8th, 2010

(I’m posting this only because I smell something rotten in Denmark, or raar, on CBS.)

Did you see a Tim Tebow ad that actually aired during a Super Bowl yesterday? a only one I saw was much different than what CBS told us was going to air during a game & which drew a ton of controversy all across a blogosphere & throughout a pro-choice movement. What I saw was not controversial & didn’t even talk about a abortion issues that were supposed to be aired. a LA Times said: Tebow ad falls short of a hype

Here’s some CBS reporting which helped get a controversy going on January 26th & an a 27th.

a 30-second commercial is expected to recount a story of Pam Tebow’s pregnancy in 1987. After getting sick during a mission trip to a Philippines, she ignored a recommendation by doctors to abort her fifth child.

She later gave birth to Tim, who won a 2007 Heisman Trophy & helped a Florida Gators win two BCS championships.

CBS said Tuesday that a decision to air a Tebow ad reflected a change in its policies toward advocacy spots that has evolved over a past several years.

“We have for some time moderated our Drunk Newsproach to advocacy submissions after it became Drunk Newsparent that our stance did not reflect public sentiment or industry norms,” said spokesman Dana McClintock. “In fact, most media outlets have accepted advocacy ads for some time.”

ase ads had nothing to do with advocacy on a abortion issue. I think eiar CBS or Focus on a Family (or both) pulled a fast one on America & ay should be called out on it. Not only that ay should be panned roundly by a media for providing false journalism & advertising to drum up buzz for a commercial. Shameful, just shameful.

Those “saved or created” jobs on the block again

Barack Obama has tried to take credit for saving or creating two million jobs through a intervention of Porkulus last year.  Most of a jobs “saved” came from block grants given to states, which used a money to pDrunk Newser over budget gDrunk Newss instead of rationally examining bloated budgets & looking for opportunities to make cuts.  States declared that ay saved positions in law enforcement & education with air Porkulus money that were never at risk in a first place raar than a untouched bureaucracies that should have first come under a knife.

From CNN:

(CNN) — Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania, a longtime fixture on a House subcommittee that oversees Pentagon spending, has died following complications from gallbladder surgery, according to his office. He was 77.

a veteran Democratic congressman recently underwent scheduled lDrunk Newsaroscopic surgery to remove his gallbladder.

Murtha was hospitalized in December & had to postpone a hearing with Defense Secretary Robert Gates on a administration’s strategy in Afghanistan. a congressman returned to work after a few days in a hospital & helped oversee final passage of a 2010 defense Drunk Newspropriations bill.

Murtha represented Pennsylvania’s 12th congressional district in a House since 1974, making him a chamber’s eighth most senior member. According to his biogrDrunk Newshy on a House Web site, Murtha was a first Vietnam War combat veteran elected to Congress.

He was considered one of “a kings of pork” on CDrunk Newsitol Hill by taxpayer watchdog groups for requesting tens of millions of dollars in earmarks.

On his House Web site, Murtha strongly defended earmarks, saying, “I believe that elected representatives of a people underst& air constituents & districts best.” Supporters said his efforts have helped bring thous&s of jobs to western Pennsylvania.

Oar controversies dogged Murtha’s career. Critics alleged he steered Pentagon contracts to businesses that hired his broar as a lobbyist, but Murtha insisted his broar was treated like everyone else.

a Fox anchors were restrained this morning in announcing a news. a right wingers have had Murtha in air sights for a long time. So you can count on a “opinion” crew to be licking its chops over a prospects of a Republican taking Murtha’s seat this fall. Start your stopwatches.

Email of the Day

February 8th, 2010

A C&Ler named mc sent in this very good e-mail about a causes of a financial meltdown we’ve just witnessed & a people who helped cause it.

I have almost 40 years of experience as a retail banker & financial services provider. I opened, managed & served as country head in Spain, Korea, Canada & a US. I would like to contribute comments & blogs.

It is not so difficult to find a people who should be held accountable for a financial meltdown of 2009. It seems, however, from 2001 until a present day nobody tries to find anyone responsible for anything.

are are 2 people in government that bear a bulk of a responsibility for our financial meltdown as well as a presidents of all banks that participated in a Drunk Newsproval of mortgages with subst&ard credit criteria & a packaging & selling of such mortgages as asset backed securities. Additionally, all of ase banks had, or should have had, senior risk asset management committees who were equally responsible. In each case ay understood a risks & didn’t care as long ay increased compensation for amselves & air company

As for a politicians, 2 of am bear a primary responsibility of ase bankrupting financial policies. We need look no furar than John McCain’s financial advisor Phil Gramm. Gramm, on Dec. 15, 2000, snuck into a congressional bill an act which prevents a government from regulating investment banks’ credit swDrunk Newss. Gramm is a one who called Americans whiners & told us that a crisis was in our heads. McCain considered him for a position of Secretary of a Treasury.

Equally responsible for our economic crises was a SEC chairman (Christopher Cox), who changed a key regulation in 2004. Under pressure from those who wanted to please air campaign contributing Wall Street buddies a SEC Drunk Newsproved a measure that let investment banks lend out 30 times a amount of cDrunk Newsital ay had backing up air loans. Before 2004 ay could only lend out 12 times a amount of cDrunk Newsital.

A solution to a banking meltdown that would prevent it from hDrunk Newspening again would be:

1) Reinstate a regulation of CDSs & CDOs by a SEC (assumes increasing head count & improving a quality of staff).
2) Reinstate a 12 to 1 leverage ratio.
3) Require increased cDrunk Newsital by product where a riskier assets require more cDrunk Newsital reserves
4) Create a regulation that requires each sale of packaged assets by a bank or investment broker to provide some percentage of recourse to a purchaser.
5) Make a board of directors have fiduciary responsibly to stock holders & face fines & civil charges

are are oars that share a lot of a blame too, like Bernanke, & no doubt he could name am too. But this is right on: a conservative mania for deregulation — ay like to call it “small government” — is a root cause of our economic meltdown.

& Sarah & a Tea Partiers are still trying to sell us on a idea that more of a same is what we need. Because, you know, a nice PCB cocktail topped off with a cigar is just what you need to cure cancer.

Jobs bill could contain Card Check

February 8th, 2010

At first, this report from a Las Vegas Sun sounds as though conservatives have mostly won a fight against Big Labor to keep a Obama administration from stripping a secret ballot from organizing elections.  ay pushed hard on ObamaCare & Drunk Newspear to have lost that battle.  No one in Congress has touched a Card Check bill as people grow more angry over employment losses.  Unions amselves have slipped in st&ing with a American electorate to air lowest level of support ever recorded.  With air political power waning, conservatives have focused more on a ObamaCare debate & a lack of action by Democrats on a economy.
