Clearly personal virtue is the only solution to the crisis. Personal Virtue has historically been the most effective means to manage the commons after all. Only when combined with shunning. By the way in the "Taper Community" no one would erase a master recording simply because their "remaster" effort produced a superior version. Remember: trade freely but trade lossless.

Afterall we picked St. Obama! Telegraph Guardian Economist Financial Times over fee quota you'll have to search for link yourself Der Spiegel Spiegel again J-Post Daily beast written by apresident emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations and a former official in the Carter administration. Newsweek

Here is Obama's entire statement: ( Link )I bolded the quote used by the LA Times. In the post above I copied the entire LA Times story. I think claiming that "out the door" means a bookkeeping entry authorizing cash expediture years in the future is somewhat tortured logic. Remember at the time one of the major criticisms of the Obama stimulous was the clain that the expeditures were in fact not timely. Remember all the claims of "shovel ready" projects.

I am confused you seem to be saying J_B is a Stalinist thug. I would never make that accusation despite being convinced at one time he supported the Hugo Chavez regime. Certainly Chavez is no Stalin! Why would you suggest that?

From the LA Times: Confused about President Obama's stimulus package? The administration may not be the place to find clarity. The White House leadership has made statements about the stimulus that often are inconsistent -- and at odds with facts put out by the administration. Effect of the stimulus * Vice President Joe Biden on Friday: The stimulus "is responsible for over 1 million jobs so far." * White House senior advisor Valerie Jarrett on Oct. 18: The stimulus "really staved off a disaster and we saved millions of jobs around the country." * White House release June 2: "Just over 100 days in, over 150,000 jobs have been created or saved." * White House senior advisor David Axelrod on June 7: "The stimulus itself has produced hundreds of thousands of jobs." Purpose of stimulus * Vice President Biden on June 2: The stimulus is "an initial big jolt to give the economy a real head start." * Biden on July 26: The stimulus "was intended to provide steady support for our economy over an extended period -- not a jolt that would last only a few months." Life span of stimulus * Obama on Jan. 28, two weeks before passage: "Most of the money we're investing as part of this plan will get out the door immediately and go directly to job creation." * Obama on July 11: "But as I made clear at the time it was passed, the [stimulus] was not designed to work in four moths -- it was designed to work over two years." Jobs saved or created by the stimulus * Christina Romer, Council of Economic Advisers chairwoman, on July 13 when asked if she knew the number of jobs that had been saved or created: "It's very hard to say exactly, because you don't know what the baseline is, because you don't know what the economy would have done without it." * Romer and vice presidential advisor Jared Bernstein released a report Jan. 10 that included a graph titled, "Unemployment Rate with and without the Recovery Plan." The graph showed that with the stimulus, unemployment would not exceed 8%, and without it, unemployment would reach about 9%. Unemployment is now 9.8%. * Bernstein on June 8 said of the report: "Looking back, it was clearly too optimistic."

So I guess he discovered employment is a laggin' indicator! Bravo J_B!

Wow J_B help me out: 1) Please show ( and link to) to my "islamophobia" posts but first give a definition of "islamophobia." I realized you havent actually said that they were islamophobic but that they merely reeked of it. Hedging your insults? 2) Provide examples (and links ) of me delving into xenophobia to demonize those nations that didnt swallow my lies about Iraq. Also please list and link to my lies about Iraq and show how any nation didn't swallow MY lies. Any nation that can resist my lies must be delt with! 3)Please show when I went out of my way to suggest that the Lancet(?) published estimate of Iraqi civilian deaths might be in error. The while you're at it go back and see how you defended completley biased reporting of the so called "Jenin massacre". Oh yea try being just a little bit nicer.

A bit over the top there Jay. By the way Jay if you havent yet check out Russ R's chat with Calomiris it's the best one yet. He's had a shortage of really interesting guests over the last few months, but this was worth driving around the block once or twice.

Well gang it looks like the jets will be made in SC.....to the machinist union I say thanks for your support. The Puget Sound region will prosper in the future because of your wonderful strategies! Lots of changes around the Sound. Elliot Bay Books might leave to find cheaper rent and increased browsing traffic. Oddly I drove by Alderwood Mall last weekend and it was hopping. Could it be that the strategy of making driving a pain in the ass could be helping to destroy Seattle's retail base. ON a related note GM will certainly prosper under the guidance of its UAW and government overlords. The future is indeed RADIANT!

OW things could be worse you could be working everyday and be sick like me!

In a manner of speaking....security at my family compound is in the control of a organization from Morro dos Macacos.

I believe that the forecast portion is 100% accurate.

Tiresias

I'll admit your red lips were kinda cool but whiskers poking thru the make-up kinda freaked me out. Maybe we should try again in a place less bright.

It's only been two days and yet I feel so empty......... Happy Felix Day...... memories like the...... "In Z We Trust"

Go to smokin gun and read the transcripts. Turns out she wasn't so willing despites drugs and he had vaginal and anal intercorse with her. I say throw him jail......the sad thing is that anyone defends him......

Viva California! Oddly we are increasing government control while Germany is about to cut taxes!

Felix was shakey but great HR by Jr! Nice pics! It felt like winter out there yesterday.

I should write an essay called: "Why I am not a conservative" Free Minds, Free Markets!
