Good Little Consumers

I was reading through an article on MSNBC about the proposed "economy stimulant" and ... wow. Here's a little snip:

"The sooner we get this relief in the hands of the American people, the sooner they can begin to do their job of being good consumers," Boehner said.

sheesh.

How the elections are going... or are they?

I've just noticed that the major networks disagree on who is ahead for the election .. interesting.

I tried to get a more "official" count from the party websites, but - it seems as if both parties are just trying to bash the other (with more links about non-party candidates than their own .. ) and can't be bothered to let their members know how the elections are coming along.

Plus, I wanted to try out this nifty widget from MSNBC
