For the first time ever all of the folks on Forbes 400 richest list are BILLIONAIRES.

That must mean the economy is doing great, right?

So, is Jimmy Carter going to monitor the US elections in November to see if they even begin to meet the minimal standards for a Soviet style election? Maybe they can announce the results early, like in October, to save everyone the trouble of going to the polls.

Virt,

The link to Media Heads Meet with Rove was extremely disturbing.

It might have been the same article TIKI but didn't it say that the total was over 1.25 trillion dollars!
If they're not doing what Gates and Buffet are doing with their surplus then something is wrong.

Poof and piffle. I did Osama's nails on Wednesday, and he was almost surely alive at the time. I defy the running dogs in the White Hut to kill my best client! Yes, he has syphilis and keeps twelve dwarf sheep, but his raels are good! Oh, Mehlman, put me down for a $20,000 donation if my KBR sub-contract is still a go. My dog still speaks highly of you.
