I gotta find a different way

to start my day, so I don't get too upset, too early, watching 'Rick the Dick' Santelli continue his unabashed assault on reality, as CNBC, the financial channel, gives him a platform, (a few minutes each morning) to spout his right wingnut BS. Today, his 'guest' who just happened to agree with him, confirmed Rick's two main talking points. First, the Obama administration is virulently 'anti-business', although all the exchanges, Dow, Nasdaq, S&P are at ALL TIME HIGHS, more than doubling after the Bush catastrophe, with businesses reporting record profits. Second, he keeps saying inflation is a HUGE problem, and the gov't isn't using the correct measurement, although it's the EXACT same as it's been for decades, and DEFLATION is more of a concern to the policy setters because it is more real and more dangerous. BUT, does being wrong every day for over FIVE YEARS, and giving advice that would have caused any follower to 'lose his ass' in the markets make 'Rick the Dick' reconsider? Of course not! He's got the other right wingnuts urging him on and calling him a hero. It gets SO old. Remember the little boy who cried 'Wolf?'........

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
