(Your roundup is late this morning because we’re trapped by Icepocalypse 2009! and the drawing straws to decide who to eat didn’t go as well as expected.)
- The headline of this story — Brides Scramble After Fire Ravages Restaurant — promised a lot more than the story delivered.
- Same here.
Let’s see if the Tarrant County Republicans have the stones to stick to their guns on this. Obama’s stimulus plan is almost 100 percent Chicago-style pork, and it deserves to be his first of many coming defeats on Capitol Hill.
The more I read about the stimulus plan the more gnawing the pain in my gut. The other day Obama commented that he would ban earmarks on the stimulus plan is laughable. That it gets reported with a straight face is laughable. While there may technically be no earmarks, the bill is larded with expenditures which have nothing to do with stimulating the economy and everything to do with paying off political supporters. And this is change we can believe in???
