If you will recall back in December, Obama's pay czar announced
pay limits for those evil corporations that received bailout money. Employees of bailed out companies can no longer earn a base salary of more than $500,000. Not only that .. but at least half of that salary would have to come in the form of company stock. Now let's move on to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They have received more than $111 billion in taxpayer money to stay afloat. In fact, the Obama administration has since pledged "unlimited financial assistance" to Fannie and Freddie. Are you sitting down? OK ... then hear this. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?
Their two CEOs are getting paid as much as $6 million for 2009. Didn't know that, did ya? Why would you when our lamestream media has been mum on the subject. They felt extremely compelled to harp on AIG and other evil corporations for private jets, salaries and bonuses ... but when it comes to Fannie and Freddie,
according to Newsbusters, ABC and CBS offered a total of three brief mentions totaling 175 words and NBC didn't say a thing about it.
More people are now identifying themselves as "conservatives."
Gallup polls for 2009 show: conservatives (40%) outnumbered both moderates (36%) and liberals (21%) across the nation in 2009. We will see if the Republicans can turn this into votes. However, I am not convinced that we would be much better off with the Republicans in charge. I guess it couldn't get worse than the current trifecta of Obama, Nancy and Harry. Maybe split control? The GOP has a lot to answer for before I'm ready to trust them with the entire operation again. I can dream of a Libertarian majority, can't I? Stop laughing!
Well now it turns out that the
Gitmo detainees don't want to go. A lawyer for many Gitmo detainees says that while his clients clearly want to go home, at least they are being held under Geneva Convention conditions in Gitmo. He says, "As far as our clients are concerned, it's probably preferable for them to remain at Guantánamo." So we may see lawyers of Gitmo detainees set up legal roadblocks to prevent their clients from leaving Gitmo. I guess the supposed horrific conditions must not be so horrific, eh?
Related note: It is going to cost the taxpayers
$200 million a year to try KSM and four other Gitmo detainees in New York.

Who knows what the final product of healthcare negotiations will look like, but as of right now healthcare plans will cost more for married couples than unmarried people living together.

Today I believe that we are supposed to get another unemployment report, and it probably won't be pretty. The Obama administration says it wants to create jobs, but then
implements policies that do just the opposite.
Local governments are having a hard enough time as it is with their budget. But then the imperial federal government comes along and
imposes even stricter smog limits that will cost billions to comply with or lead to a loss in federal highway dollars. There's a great way to create more of those elusive jobs!
