yaetmo said to queen: You know Queen, that just about how I feel those certain people who have long over-justified Brinker capabilities, performance and record. I chuckle as I see those same people as they have now started to acknowledge his shortcomings, his spins, which have become more apparent with his current debacles.

"Now started"?. . .so yaetmo, who do you know who has never acknowledged any of Brinker's "spins and shortcomings"?

I watched an excellent program on the history of money, last night on the History Channel. . . it included GWB and Henry Paulson spinning several months ago about how "sound" our "fundamentals" were, even as our economy toppled like a house of cards around them. That's not to say it's their fault. I think they were probably honestly spinning (if there is such a thing) with what they believed or maybe HOPED was the truth of the situation, much as Brinker believed what he said even though he was as wrong as they were. . . but it illustrates just how silly it is to focus on any single person who didn't have a complete grasp on the domino-like "magnitude" of the current situation.
