Somewhere.<BR/><BR/>I don't watch much news just now. I read what I can tolerate and try to tune out the drone.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03718645722631873821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-10208005928434378492009-03-18T16:01:00.000-07:002009-03-18T16:01:00.000-07:00Take a bow!!

Do you think these guys would think of going anywhere near the Great Unwashed?<BR/><BR/>I'm sure that money is already out of the country. At the very least, in Swiss bank accounts or somewhere else where it will never see our shores or benefit our economy ever again.Lisa :-]https://www.blogger.com/profile/02237889098638895390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-81133506824002771492009-03-18T05:03:00.000-07:002009-03-18T05:03:00.000-07:00Call me silly, but dammit, I've been waiting for n...Call me silly, but dammit, I've been waiting for news just such as this.

(words fail) was beyond belief. I read that Elie Wiesel and his foundation lost a lot in the Ponzi scheme and called Bernie Madoff 'evil.' This from a Holocaust survivor who KNOWS evil. Personally I'm not sure if Madoff and the AIG execs rank up there with Nazis, but I agree with you that something is basically broken. *debbi**debbi*https://www.blogger.com/profile/04686342184813596517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-83220823943201133932009-03-17T17:50:00.000-07:002009-03-17T17:50:00.000-07:00Fortunately, it looks like Washington is as pissed...Fortunately, it looks like Washington is as pissed as we are. It's time for them to act as the 80% shareholders and deny the bonuses. As if it isn't outrageous enough...did you see today that eleven of the bonus recipients NO LONGER WORK FOR AIG?!?!? So much for the retention argument.sunflowerkat https://www.blogger.com/profile/11643564072168293568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-91431482027494224272009-03-17T08:32:00.000-07:002009-03-17T08:32:00.000-07:00Amen sister, amen.

Auto workers, teachers, local, county, and state workers under union contracts are being asked to take furloughs, pay freezes or pay cuts. Somehow the "we have a contract" doesn't cut any ice for them. <BR/><BR/>We've limited our news exposure mostly to newspapers and news magazines for the same reasons. Hype, hype, hype with the same stories over and over and over........JACKIEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11883028058826030899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6403384531250069062.post-78632443216005778752009-03-17T06:01:00.000-07:002009-03-17T06:01:00.000-07:00Me too, Lisa.
