Bush pardons two turkeys. Could one of them be George Ryan? Sen. Durbin says he is considering commutation for former Gov. George Ryan. Gov. Blagojevich could be seeking sympathy from Illinois voters by reaching across the isle to agree with commutation. Former Gov. Thompson also seems to be on board with commutation. Did you know Thompson's law firm helps defend Ryan? *Caller notes this could be psy-ops by Sen. Durbin to stick it to the Illinois Government Machine.
Closure of the Dana Thomas House may be the wrong address ... why don't we shut down the Gov. Mansion! Also, are we re-writing history by wanting to move the House that Lincoln owned? Maybe they shouldn't have agreed on that adjustable mortgage.
There is chaos in India where several sites witnessed ghastly terror attacks by gunmen with bombs. the death count is over 200 including up to 20 possible gunmen. Reports indicate there is a Pakistani link. India continues to investigate, but what about the initial warnings that preceded the attacks. These should be focused on. Also, how can the Problem Reaction Solution paradigm play a role in this? Or is this just a conflict over Kashmir?
President Elect Obama has given 4 press conferences since "winning" the election. 3 have been just this week about the economy. He is nominating Clintonians and former Fed Governors to key positions of advisory boards. Is this really the change voters expected? Its more of the same of what I expected.
