Of course we would - no one else is packing heat!

have to recalibrate my offensiveness to "stun" from "kill"

kevbone is the WalMart of spray - all volume

Holy shit!

It's much better to shift state resources to support failing companies so they can then use state resources to acquire successful companies as we are currently doing in the banking sector?

That isn't a compelling reason? Our industrial prowess is, and always will be, the core of our military strength. If you are speaking of managerial incompetence, well, AIG is prime example of that on a bigger scale. Cigarette smoking union smucks vs. cigar smoking CEOs

In USD - about the same I believe - a couple $ for a beer. Probably less if you were directly exchanging hard currency. In local currency, this is how someone paid for a beer in December last year:

that's a monthly rate of 5,540,000,000.00% a ten fold increase over last week http://www.cato.org/zimbabwe

1) The Big 3 were making per car profits >$10k selling SUVs just a couple of years ago - there's a reason the Japanese wanted in on that market. People most definitely wanted them. With gas ~$2/gallon again they may want them yet again. As someone in the market for a mountain car the economics are stunningly in favor of SUVs atm, even looking at $4 gas again. 2) Detroit won WW2, not Wall Street. 3) AIG is currently diverting all cash given to them by the government to their subsidiaries which will then be spun off leaving the taxpayers, as usual, fucked. 4) I don't agree with any bailout. If one industry is bailed out all should be; tipping the competitive balance in favor of one is the most egregious market distortion. Unless of course we are talking tulip futures.

It's amusing that a paltry few billion for Detroit raises so much ire but $150 billion for AIG is aok with the free-marketers, and Goldman Sachs paying out $7 billion in bonuses after getting a $6 billion bailout is cool.

Especially if you are riding trams quite a bit, step in is the way to go. I might be able to sell you a pair of the old Atomic Big Daddys cheap

REI is selling off the rental fleet, downstairs, at the Seattle flagship. There looked to be a few childrens sizes left.

Pick up a copy of "Ski Patrol" when you are at it. no, I don't know where you could buy the masks.

heavily photographed climbers are still broke, heavily photographed surfers are rich, as in, 7 figure income at age 22 rich here's a much more fun wave http://www.surfline.com/video/video_player/video_player.cfm?id=20237

You going to use the strapon?

I'm sure they were concerned about the marginal rate increase for people making >$250k/year

You've a stronger stomach than I, she makes me want to vomit.

Trick question: PP will see the troll potential.

I'll shoot the moon. Palin is a pathological liar - the record speaks for itself. She will lie about anything and everything no matter how bizarre. Why not fake a pregnancy? If it were her daughter Palin's own conduct would be more explicable than rushing back to Alaska after her water broke without consulting a DR
