“Of course, Obama will never admit in word what he’s doing in deed. As in his rhetorically brilliant national-security speech yesterday claiming to have undone Bush’s moral travesties, the military commissions flip-flop is accompanied by the usual Obama three-step: (a) excoriate the Bush policy, (b) ostentatiously unveil cosmetic changes, (c) adopt the Bush policy.”

I’m just hoping that some of this stuff has complications that the average American just can’t see at the moment. I’ve been preparing myself over the last few weeks to remove my nose from Obama’s ass. I think it’s always healthier to be skeptical of anything that happens in government.

“Accordingly, what’s surprising is to see the reactions to the release of those Justice Department memos, even by some of the most eloquent and forthright critics of Bush malfeasance: Paul Krugman, for example, writing that we used to be “a nation of moral ideals” and never before Bush “have our leaders so utterly betrayed everything our nation stands for.” To say the least, that common view reflects a rather slanted version of American history.”

Barack sure has some pretty lips, however not very flattering to Mr. Clooney’s visage.

$10 Bill by Michael Tyznik
Michael’s proposed redesign for the US currency bills is phenomenal. It’s too bad something this like would probably never happen. But oh how I wish it would. Check out the rest of the bills.
Sure would be nice to have some updated currency. Might as well do it now while everything else in the economic world is changing.

Rolling Luggage
A Time to Get has some great advice:
“Unless you suffer from back, knee or neck ailments, your bag weighs over 40 pounds, or you are carrying more than two pieces of luggage, pick up your carry-on bag while walking through the airport.* What is it, 100 yards MAX from check-in to gate? Your arms should strain a little when carrying luggage, you should have to switch hands while walking to the gate, the pain lets you know you’re alive and capable.
I’m tired of tripping over small bags wheeling behind men, obliviously tugging them along four feet behind them on telescopic handles. Our Grandfathers didn’t wheel ten pound bags behind them, neither should we.”
