An Eventful Week



"You know, this is an amazing week. Massachusetts goes Republican, health care dies and the Supreme Court unshackles the First Amendment. It's the best week I've had since spring break in medical school -- and I don't even remember it." -- Charles Krauthammer

Krauthammer Quips: 'Best Week I've Had Since Spring Break in Medical School'

Too bad the stock market had its worst week in a year. Everything else was going so well...

it IS too bad about the market, that's for sure....maybe it's that company sweet deals that Obama worked behind closed doors at the WH might not come to fruition now...you know, that same Obama who hates big business...until he needs it to push us into socialism?
Krauthammer is terrific.
And great cartoon, CUBE.

We deserve a week when we don't feel like we've fallen down a rabbit hole.

LOVE the graphic though I think it might be early to celebrate the demise.

Z: BO just can't bring himself to do what needs to be done to stimulate the economy and produce jobs. Cutting taxes to encourage investment and growth goes against every fiber in his being. He will have to be forced into it because he won't go willingly.

cube said...

Jan: Right, we do deserve it.

I agree that we shouldn't celebrate too early, but the Mass loss makes the Obamacare obamination bill they were trying to ram down our collective throats a lost cause. Another health care reform bill will immerge, but they won't be able to pass it in the dead of night without scrutiny from the republicans. For that, I am grateful.

It really has been a week to celebrate.

Debbie: As I emailed you, one more problem the BO admin will not address.

As Obama spoke on Friday bashing corporations and banks the stock market dropped around 150 points. It was a great week for conservatives with the Brown win and the Supreme Court standing up for free speech. Krauthammer is great!

It was a week of historic significance and I hope America can continue to ride this wave.

The stock market will continue to be topsy-turvy. Every time President O'Bummer opens his mouth the market takes a nose dive.

And one disappointment is that the new Supreme Court justice Sotomayor turns out to be one of those who thinks that considering the Constitution is optional in Supreme Court rulings. And on the free speech case, she did not exercise that option.

But, it is not surprising.

a friend, a really smart friend, is lamenting in facebook about how the MF overturn lets corporations take over america.

I really wonder why people have such a hard time with this!
