Whoa, I didn't know that's where Friedman's wealth came from. A bunch of parasitical local retail-strangling super malls. Somehow, it's fitting.
I'd say this anyway, but pooor Tom!.
Posted by idiosynchronic at November 15, 2008 03:36 AMCBS's 60 Minutes will air the first televised interview with President-elect Barack Obama and his wife Michelle this Sunday.
Here's a preview, where the two describe the moment they knew that the Democratic ticket had prevailed on Election Day:
Asked when it sunk in that her husband had won, Michelle Obama told Kroft, "I remember, we were watching the returns and, on one of the stations, Barack's picture came up and it said, 'President-Elect Barack Obama.' And I looked at him and said, 'You are the 44th president of the United States of America. Wow. What a country we live in.'"
"How about that?" President-elect Obama added. "Yeah. And then she said, 'Are you going take the girls to school in the morning?'"
"I did not," Michelle Obama replied, laughing. "I didn't say that."
Posted by Judith at November 15, 2008 08:35 AMIf anything ever happens to Obama, every radio/TV commentator who incites the hatred of people should stand trial.
In a Maine convenience store, an Associated Press reporter saw a sign inviting customers to join a betting pool on when Obama might fall victim to an assassin. The sign solicited $1 entries into "The Osama Obama Shotgun Pool," saying the money would go to the person picking the date closest to when Obama was attacked. "Let's hope we have a winner," said the sign, since taken down.
Obama Faces More Personal Threats Than Other Presidents-Elect

Anyone else notice that Muck hasn't been around to tell us how well the economy is doing? Maybe he should have been listening to you guys instead of questioning your ability to know about such things.
