The election result was really the worst-possible result for Obama's 2012 re-election prospects in part because Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid -- two much-hated Democrats -- aren't going anywhere. The Democrats held the Senate, and Reid held of Sharron Angle, so on that side of Congress, he's still the man in charge. And Pelosi wants to stay on as Minority Leader, though she's angered the NYT (!) editorial page, which has asked her to step aside. They claim it's because she's not a good communicator, and thus her skill set doesn't match the job, but that's not the real reason. It's because everyone hates her, and she'll hurt the Democrats in 2012. Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/liberals-are-terrified-because-pelosi-and-reid-are-still-around-2010-11#ixzz14hq1r0zk

An All Inclusive is Always False. ;} Oh, and by the way, where is all the evidence of that "massive Democratic voter fraud!!!" we were breathlessly told by the Houston Republican gr ... er ... I mean independent "Tea Party" group in Houston was scheduled to occur this year (in minority areas, naturally)? -bradblog
“I will say that when it comes to some of-- my supporters— part of it, I think, is-- the belief that if I just communicated things better, that I’d be able to persuade-- that half of the country that voted for John McCain that we were right and they were wrong. “One of the things that I think is important for people to remember is that-- you know, this country-- doesn’t just agree with the New York Times editorial page. And, I can make some really good arguments-- defending the Democratic position. And there are going to be some people who just don’t agree with me. And that’s okay.” Huh? Who asked you to explain anything to John McCain voters? Who cares what John McCain voters think? Did someone tell the President that we're disappointed with him because he hasn't gotten McCain voters on board? Hell, he's the only one whose mission in life is wooing people who are unwooable. The majority of the country voted for Obama, they're the only ones he should be worried about convincing.
No one is asking President Obama to "make some really good arguments," like this is law school. We're asking him to fight for something, anything at this point. Things are not going to get better until the President understands the problem. And he clearly doesn't.
Back in the real world, outside the hospital for ailing banks, it's harder and harder to get paid by anybody for anything, so the circulation of money slows in the everyday economy. Accounts receivable go unreceived. Payrolls can't be met. Pink slips are issued. Mortgages won't get paid. Credit card bills lie unopened on the kitchen table while the late fees, penalties, and other cockamamie charges rack up, and one day some suspicious looking fat men in mullet hair-doos and wife-beater shirts, with flames tattooed on their necks, show up with a tow truck and start hitching your car to it and you wonder for a moment how you managed to park illegally in your own driveway - wait a minute...! 8D
What the heck is a wife-beater shirt?
I'm thinkin' torn off sleeveless shirts. Just guessin'. I was wonderin' that myself. Like a serial killer. Can you ID a wife beater by the clothes he wears? Kunstler channeling red necks as wife beaters? He whiffs every once in a while . 8D
I found this when I did a little digging. When I was a kid we used to call these Guinea Ts - because the Italians wore them all the time, weather permitting. I guess that would be politically incorrect these days.
That was my impression. ;}
