AIG now stands for quot;arrogance, incompetence and greed quot; ...according to U.S. House Representative Paul Hodes (D-NH). Now it ratchets way up... U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), said AIG executives should follow quot;the Japanese example quot; by publicly apologizing and quot;do one of two things: resign or commit suicide. quot;

Well, we said it here first when the story first broke broke Jul 29, 2008 - that Ted Stevens would be convicted of 7 counts of lying on Congressional financial statements, after reviewing the extensive evidence. The obnoxious longtime Republican Senator did NOT help himself being argumentative during his trial testimony. See our initial story here.

House Minority Leader John A. Boehner (R-Ohio), gathering his GOP colleagues in a private huddle for a third straight morning, declared that there was no bipartisan compromise on the $700 billion financial rescue effort, despite announcements to the contrary by Democratic Senate and Congressional Leaders...

The carefully GOP manipulated TV coverage of the RNC Wednesday night was an interesting sociological snapshot of the base of supporters physically present. You would have thought that some of the nationally known speakers - Meg Whitman, founder of that small little company E-Bay and Carly Fiorina, former chief executive of Hewlett-Packard were giving a speech to themselves inside a closet when talking of GOP reform and prosperity in the future - absolutely NO response what-so-ever from the convention hall packed audience. Truly astonishing, because some issues discussed to be accomplished by the potential McCain Presidency were out there and on the far side.

The expectation is that much of the internet traffic originating from the Pepsi Center and Invesco Field at Mile High relating to the Democratic National Convention (DNC), will be blogger traffic, including video blogs, in addition to the traditional media... and Joesph Biden becomes Barack Obama V.P. running mate after his name was leaked ahead of any formal announcement. There is no with more foreign policy experience in either political party than Joseph Biden, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and 2x Presidential Candidate.

Does the United States now elect slackers who abuse their privilege of representing this nation by NOT fulfilling their duties in Congress, so they can run for higher office? Or do complacent voters just neglect these facts and further contribute to this compounded problem by simply turning their cheek the other way? Pretty disgusting if you ask me either way- that any U.S. Congressman or U.S. Senator has the impudence to quot;expect quot; from American citizens to respect them and their potential future leadership in higher office, when in turn they do NOT deserve the current Congressional seat they are occupying by not performing their existing Constitutional obligation...

No doubt President Bush and his entire NeoCon White House, as well as the stupendous GOP affable mouthpieces Bill O’Reilly, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Haggerty would rather be dead, than be caught talking with sincere civility to suspected enemies of the state (one of the reasons the United States failed unilateral foreign policy has been so detrimental to worldwide stability), and the same failed U.S. policies that are so diametrically counter/opposed to Barack Obama’s U.S. the world partnership in which his recent Berlin speech clearly proposed.

Yacrosoft or Michoo – too Icahnish? When America was once prosperous, not too long ago and most U.S. industries had at least a bright near-term economic future, the greedy class of American could enrich themselves privately, away from the media and general public – but, those times have changed. This recent statement in The Washington Post article says it all - “Icahn, who owns a 5 percent stake in Yahoo, emphasized he still believes a sale of all or part of Yahoo may still be the best way for the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company to lift its sagging stock price.” No mention whatsoever has been discussed publicly of what to fix that people don’t like about Yahoo that may be causing the lack of financial windfall that Carl Icahn believes he should benefit from by investing in Yahoo, the well liked consumer based Internet icon stock.
