The news this week has only reinforced the fact that we are facing an economic crisis of historic proportions. Financial markets faced more turmoil. New home purchases in October were the lowest in half a century. Five-hundred-forty-thousand more jobless claims were filed last week, the highest in 18 years. And we now risk falling into a deflationary spiral that could increase our massive debt even further.
While I’m pleased that Congress passed a long-overdue extension of unemployment benefits this week, we must do more to put people back to work and get our economy moving again. We have now lost 1.2 million jobs this year, and if we don’t act swiftly and boldly, most experts now believe that we could lose millions of jobs next year.
Gen. James L. Jones, a former commander of all NATO forces, is being considered for a number of top foreign policy jobs in the Obama administration: secretary of state, secretary of defense or national security adviser.
General Jones combines a four-star résumé and bipartisan admiration. A decorated veteran of the Vietnam War, he also mastered the subtle art of coalition diplomacy during wartime. As head of NATO forces, he served in the military’s most diplomatic of war-fighting assignments. The job required finding consensus for military action among squabbling member governments when the alliance took over significant portions of the war in Afghanistan.
The briefing book. Before President-elect Obama traveled to Afghanistan during the campaign, General Jones briefed him on the American and the Atlantic alliance security and assistance mission there. He also has briefed Mr. Obama on energy policy issues.
General Jones led a study for the Atlantic Council of the United States, a nongovernmental organization, that concluded: “Make no mistake, NATO is not winning in Afghanistan.’’ He also has said that the war in Iraq caused the United States to “take its eye off the ball’’ in Afghanistan, and has warned that the consequences of failure are just as serious in Afghanistan as they are in Iraq. “Symbolically, it’s more the epicenter of terrorism than Iraq. If we don’t succeed in Afghanistan, you’re sending a very clear message to the terrorist organizations that the U.S., the U.N. and the 37 countries with troops on the ground can be defeated.’’
General Jones was once Commandant of the Marine Corps, among other commands during a lifetime of military service. He currently is president and chief executive of the United States Chamber of Commerce Institute for 21st Century Energy, which seeks to find ways to assure that the nation’s energy supply is “adequate, affordable and secure while protecting the environment,” according to the organization’s mission statement.
He was born in Kansas City, Mo., on Dec. 19, 1943. He received a bachelor of science degree in 1966 from Georgetown, where he played basketball (the general is 6 foot 4) and which later awarded him an honorary doctorate of letters, in 2002. He graduated from the National War College in Washington in 1985 and wears the Defense Distinguished Service Medal with two oak leaf clusters; the Silver Star Medal; the Legion of Merit with four gold stars; the Bronze Star Medal with Combat “V”; and the Combat Action Ribbon.

My dream is for Atrios to write about how much skyways suck.
I think we should charter a forced 300,000,000 person charter trip to Europe, show everyone the fucking trains in France and Spain, and, after explaining to the majority of the Americans why the people there "spoke kinda funny," bring everyone home and start work on a ten thousand mile network of Supertrains.
The boom in the passport photo business alone might save the economy.

Either the Wall Street pigs will have to pay for their gambling debts around the world or the taxpayers will have to.
If the pigs like Geithner succeed in hanging it on the taxpayers you can say goodbye to Health care and all other initiatives.

With respect to the Bail-O-Rama, the number I have heard bruited about is 5 Trillion.
A trillion here, a trillion there, pretty soon you're talking about real money.
In fact, I think it's going to be fake money Real Soon Now. I know about the dangers of deflation, but I think Pres. Obama does, too; so the printing presses are gonna run overtime.
I was weighing paying off my mortgage about a year ago and thought about all that could go wrong. I'd rather pay it with cheap dollars than expensive ones, and doubtless many agree with me. So I think that's how the Obama administration is going to attempt a repair: massive spending, massive public works, and massive inflation.
To be honest, I don't care how it gets solved; just want things fixed. I don't want Americans to lose their homes or go broke. If this costs me a bunch of money in taxes or lost value of assets, well, OK. Better than losing my daughter to war or something.

Arguments can be made pro and con (here, at least) for skyways. I tend to think of them as a con.
But they're not privately controlled (public/private in Minneapolis), and they lessened the blow of retail flight to the suburbs back in the late 60s. I'd still like more emphasis on street-level retail, though.

Jack Ott (Constitutional expert):
On the other hand, consideration must be given to the events that would transpire if we were to learn today that Mr. Obama was ineligible to serve was forced to step down. Undoubtedly our country would witness unprecedented riots and civil strife, probably requiring the establishment of marshal law to restore peace in the streets. The question of who then would be sworn in as president would have to be resolved, and it may even become necessary to hold another presidential election to satisfy all of the interest groups that would demand a voice in the process.
Or we could ignore the Constitution and proceed on our merry way. Then the next time a Constitutional issue arose, it would be a little easier to ignore it again, based on precedent.
However, that is precisely what we are doing today. Despite the seriousness of the issue and its potential implications, it is being totally ignored by the print and television media. As a result, relatively few Americans are even aware that the issue exists. The only place where serious attention is being given to it is on the internet, which only a minority of Americans use to obtain their news. Even conservative talk radio has been relatively mum on the issue.
Maybe you mean "martial law," but who knows? Experts like you speak a different lingo than ordinary folks.

I did get to talk to mayor nutter once about education - I told him his chief education officer is good and he should listen to her.
5 years ago she was my boss as i learned how to teach. I had her cell # and we talked a lot about how to make it work.
the story on my blog of my first day teaching was first told to her.

I seem to remember (might be wrong) that most of the skyways connected private buildings. The skyways might be public, but if you can't get to them except through private buildings, with security guards and whatnot (or even just the social obstacles of walking through, say, an office building)...
That's true, but the city decides their hours of operation; and the building operators and the city split the costs of maintenance.
For instance, a lot of the newer buildings are "skyway-centric", as in they are designed to move people through the building, not to stop and mingle. They're also designed not to interfere with business.
But most of the retail in the skyways is shit. It's fast food and convenience stores...hardly businesses that draw people to an urban center.

Operation: Destroy Sarah Palin
Her VP nomination acceptance speech was amazing, energizing and excited millions. She was sharp, wholesome, down to earth, boldly conservative and beautiful. Then, the liberal media, blatantly committed to getting Obama elected, set out to destroy her. “Sarah Palin is stupid” was their mantra. Every late night talk show host, biased liberal TV interviewer, biased liberal newspaper reporter and democrat talking head united to create the paradigm, “Palin is an idiot”.
Suddenly, every word out of Sarah's mouth was under severe scrutiny. Who could survive such a tsunami of attacks on their intellect? Meanwhile, Obama saying the US has 57 states barely drew a mention.
Even the National Organization for Women did not defend Palin. Her Conservative traditional values do not fit their liberal agenda. Palin chose to have her Down Syndrome baby rather than abort it. Sarah proved that a woman can have a thriving family and successful career. She loves and respects her husband without feeling subservient to him. All this rubs the NOW gang the wrong way. But what REALLY ticks them off, Sarah Palin is pretty.
Why did Sarah diddle First Dude's partner, then? That doesn't smack of respect.

I guess my point, though, was - has he completely abdicated any and all responsibility regarding his supposed "governing" functions? Why is this motherfucker allowed to fuck things up for another two months?
"If universal health care, a clean energy economy, withdrawal of troops from Iraq, an end to torture, and massive new infrastructure investments are a “center-right” agenda because Tim Geithner is Secretary of Treausry then I’ll take it. The crux of the matter is to keep pressing for the agenda"

Atlas Juggs yesterday:
A (not so) MInor Point on Obama's Birth Certificate
Patsy sent this. While reviewing Bob Unruh's article in WND in regard to the lawsuits for the birth certificate. I came across this paragraph.(see below)
Of course he is a total fraud no matter how it turns out.
"Hawaii Revised Statute 338-178 allows registration of birth in Hawaii for a child that was born outside of Hawaii to parents who, for a year preceding the child’s birth, claimed Hawaii as their place of residence," the document said. "The only way to know where Senator Obama was actually born is to view Senator Obama's original birth certificate from 1961 that shows the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor that delivered him."
HOW COULD STANLEY ANN DUNHAM HAVE DELIVERED BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA JR. IN AUGUST OF 1961 IN HONOLULU, WHEN OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON RECORDS SHOW HER 2680 MILES AWAY IN SEATTLE ATTENDING CLASSES THAT SAME MONTH?

copyright dave, these next two months are the fucking karmic result of the US Supreme Court installing this dipshit into office, and then the Pat Peales approving it in 2004.

She waited for her water to break, continued to give a lecture, got on a plane, caught a connecting flight in Seattle, flew back to her home state, drove past two perfectly good hospitals to get to a rinky-dink hospital in some small town, and then gave birth. I mean, who doesn't?

Remember, people, words can't hurt you.
Unless you're Texaschilibean: Stumpbroke & Steercotted (and currently have the living bejesus Skullfucked out of it Reality) and then, you get all pissed off and start yelling about how people shouldn't be "messing with Texas" and how it won't "suckcome" to something or other.
"suckcome" That wasn't a Freudian Slip. That was a Freudian pratfall on a bananna peel, into a wading pool full of lark's vomit, followed by a swan dive into a swimming pool full of rabid skunks... while wearing it's finest Fredrick's of Hollywood lingerie... and the video posted to YouTube.
TCB:S&S. One of the classic Eschaton trolls, like a zoo chimpanzee, it has grown tired of flinging its poo, and is now on the tire swing, sullenly masturbating.

I said last night that Bush never worked a day in his life and Butler got all pissy with me, demanding what I did for a living.
It then (erroneously) accused me of claiming to be a teacher and then went off on a rant about how teachers didn't do shit (its own experience?).
If eating junk food and masturbating were marketable skills, Butler would be as rich as Bill Gates.

Someone was vacuuming just off camera. The pups were excited. Not sure if they wanted to play with it or were afraid of it, but they were worked up about it.

What really cracked me up was the fact it said I earned $30,000 a year (wrong - and Butler has never earned that much in its life) - which was the same as a WalMart greeter.
I doubt if any WalMart greeter earns 30 grand a year.
It was really pissed off that I called Bush the worst president ever and said he never worked a day in his entire life.

humanities, or attending poetry readings. sure, he'll take one of his
bunnys to the occasional opera or city festival, but it's all about
showing off his wealth and privilege in large crowds, not out of any
real love of culture.

Oddly enough, I submitted a suggestion this morning to change.gov regarding amping up AmTrak into an above ground, environmentally-friendly, Bladerunner-style super train that would rival anything in Europe. Yes, it would have to look cool because Americans love shiny, futuristic-looking objects. I think this should be one of President Obama's first green WPA-style projects. I suggested having national contests to tap Americans for design submissions.

The reason the newspaper industry is in steep decline.
28-point headline: FAMOUS CONSERVATIONIST RESCUES RACCOON
AndyMN
it's a self-created death spiral they're in. they drove away all the thinking people, cutting back on quality writers and research depts, making papers useless to people who need meaningful noncelebrity information in their lives. they added insult to injury, by becoming uncritical mouthpieces for the republican party and large corporations, who have never been known for the production of interesting, truthful, reality based information. their condescending attitude towards their remaining readers is guaranteed to annoy and turn off the young and thus future market, and indeed it is, as iirc Murdoch himself pointed out recently.
it's one industry i won't weep to see die in the New Depression. sorry, guys, you brought it on yourselves.
