President Obama...nice ring to it right?

Sounds like the cellulite challenged double X chromosome is starting to sing (Fat lady is singing). The end is near "My Friends". Read on. Buckley leaves National Review after Obama endorsement Posted: 06:56 PM ET From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney (CNN) — Christopher Buckley, the son of conservative icon William F. Buckley, said Tuesday he's resigned from the conservative National Review days after endorsing Barack Obama's White House bid, among the most powerful symbols yet of the conservative discontent expressed this election cycle. In an online column , Buckley said he had decided to offer his resignation from the magazine his father founded after hundreds of readers and some National Review colleagues expressed outrage he was backing the Illinois senator. "While I regret this development, I am not in mourning, for I no longer have any clear idea what, exactly, the modern conservative movement stands for," Buckley wrote. "Eight years of &

The Greed goes on....

The real story here is how Citigroup is pretending to be mad about not getting Wachovia at a dollar a share as opposed to seven dollars a share. Now they just hope for the free payday. Citigroup Drops Bid to Block Wachovia Sale, Presses Ahead With $60 Billion Suit for Damages By Mark Hamblett October 14, 2008 Citigroup, Inc. may have abandoned its attempt to purchase the assets of Wachovia Corp. but continues to pursue its claim for $60 billion in damages.The focus in the latest manuevering was whether those claims belonged in federal or state court.Citigroup no longer is seeking to block the acquisition of Wachovia by Wells Fargo for $15 billion but insisted in a statement Thursday that "it has strong legal claims against Wachovia, Wells Fargo and their officers, directors, advisers and others for breach of contract and for tortious interference with contract" and that it "plans to pursue these damage claims vigorously."Wachovia filed notice of removal of Citigroup

Krugman wins Nobel economics prize The New York Times columnist, Princeton professor and Bush administration critic awarded for theory on free trade and globalization. STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) -- Paul Krugman, the Princeton University scholar and The New York Times columnist, won the Nobel prize in economics Monday for his analysis of how economies of scale can affect trade patterns and the location of economic activity. Krugman has been a harsh critic of the Bush administration and the Republican Party in The New York Times, where he writes a regular column and has a blog called "Conscience of a Liberal." He has come out forcefully against John McCain during the economic meltdown, saying the Republican candidate is "more frightening now than he was a few weeks ago" and earlier that the GOP has become "the party of stupid." "Krugman is not only a scientist but also an opinio
