Banks are NOT lending.
They and Wall Street (at least the too-small-to-succeed entities outside the very small and exclusive 'magic circle' of too-big-to-fail) are scared silly of legislative 'reform' with good reason.
- We should be weeping when these fella's are smiling.
Look at these two 40-pound brains. They blew up housing, Fannie & Freddie, and NOW for their next magic act are going to fix, and I mean REALLY FIX things through more legislative "reform." What assholes.
Oh goody. Yay.
I used to think that whenever politicians talked, no matter what they pretended to be saying or talking about, they were talking about money. Our money.
- I have added to this thought. Now, whenever the clowns-on-the-potomac talk, no matterwhat they pretend to be saying or talking about, they are talking about more power & control by government and less freedom and liberty for the rest of us.
yay. huzzah.

Brewer to Obama: 'We Will Not Surrender Any Part of Arizona' (VIDEO)
Well, this is getting to be an Arizonapalooza weekend!
See, "Mexico Represents Single Biggest Drug Trafficking Threat to U.S.," and "Most Illegal Immigrants Smuggling Drugs, Says Gov. Jan Brewer."
And here's this awesome clip from Gov. Brewer:

I should probably be posting Michael Jackson, since this is the first anniversary of his death (brilliant performer, despite his eccentricities), but Katie White of the Ting Tings goes a little better for a weekend Rule 5 warm-up. (And I'll be posting a hot Bethany Dempsey encore for that!) Until then, enjoy "That's Not My Name":

...I mostly took to Twitter! (Background is here.)
And it's funny how when you think you have a pretty high-impact post and it gets little love after all. Or maybe it wasn't that hot to begin with. Folks can check it out, "World Cup Gives Leftists (Another) Chance to Root Against America." (I'll be rooting for USA tomorrow, of course.)
Here's the pic for a teaser. Looks like a gang-banging Mexico-loving L.A. soccer fan, yo. Anybody surprised?

Worth a Thousand Words
The stark difference between the free and the unfree is illuminated in that
picture. The boundless energy of human beings is most assuredly not unleashed by
governments of boundless power. That energy is unleashed only by free political
institutions and free economic systems. Donald Rumsfeld

Greenpeace Fights for Last Blue Fin Tuna
I never trust the estimates of impending fish population collapse, considering how little respect for truth environmentalists so eminently demonstrate. Still, this article's pretty interesting. At NYT, "Tuna's End":
THERE ARE TWO reasons that a mere fish should have inspired such a high-strung confrontation reminiscent of Greenpeace’s early days as a defender of whales. The first stems from fish enthusiasts who have for many years recognized the particular qualities of bluefin tuna — qualities that were they land-based creatures would establish them indisputably as “wildlife” and not just another “seafood” we eat without remorse. Not only is the bluefin’s dense, distinctly beefy musculature supremely appropriate for traversing the ocean’s breadth, but the animal also has attributes that make its evolutionary appearance seem almost deus ex machina, or rather machina ex deo — a machine from God. How else could a fish develop a sextantlike “pineal window” in the top of its head that scientists say enables it to navigate over thousands of miles? How else could a fish develop a propulsion system whereby a whip-thin crescent tail vibrates at fantastic speeds, shooting the bluefin forward at speeds that can reach 40 miles an hour? And how else would a fish appear within a mostly coldblooded phylum that can use its metabolic heat to raise its body temperature far above that of the surrounding water, allowing it to traverse the frigid seas of the subarctic?And, well, while we're on the subject of fishing ... See, "Expired Fishing License Disqualifies $1 Million Big Rock Tournament Winners."

I remember, do you?.............from Rico
I remember the "stink" made by our Congresscritters during hearings held on Gen. Petreus...including the way Sen. Obama handled himself at the time.
I also clearly recall the MoveOn.org Gen "BetrayUs" advertisement and campaign.
- It remained on their website until...shocka...Obama selected Petreus [shades of Truman, MacArthur and Korea, which didn't turn out all that well for us or the Koreans] to be headwaiter in his desultory attempts at losing yet another war. You can look now, but it's been gone. Erased. Never happened. Never mind.
- History rewritten a la Orwell's "1984."
The perfidy, ignomy and irony displayed by our Marxist 'Left' seems to know no bounds.
- Prepare to be treated like Poland was by Hitler and Stalin.
So much for "dissent is patriotic" or "speaking truth to power"....or winning wars.
Patton and Eisenhower could NOT have prevailed in WWII if our (ahem) "leadership" had been a bunch of thin-skinned pansies like they are today.
