You are better off to stay out of planes, trains and subways until this is over.

This H1N1 doesn't sound any more dangerous than your average flu. Why change your behavior?

We had a "Banana Republic" moment this morning when Obama blamed "speculators" for his inability to cut a deal on Chrysler

He has to blame somebody when his charm offensives fail...lol.

Funny thing about the Biden moment today is that he is right on this one. You are better off to stay out of planes, trains and subways until this is over. But it wasn't politically correct for him to say so.


Biden's most amusing gaffes are always inconvenient truths.

Speaking of Chrysler's and GM's Chapter 11s, what court and what judge will hear them? There will be tremendous political pressure on the court(s); can they resist? The judiciary is usually resentful of being strong-armed by Washington.

I was supposed to get on a plane to Utah this past Monday, and was a little relieved that I didn't have to step foot in DIA.
