Quote of the Day
The President's attempted diktat takes money from bondholders and gives it to a labor union that delivers money and votes for him. Why is he not calling on his party to "sacrifice" some campaign contributions, and votes, for the greater good? Shaking down lenders for the benefit of political donors is recycled corruption and abuse of power.I hope he doesn't pay too dearly for this...
...because you KNOW he's gonna pay.

With the news that we're going to get an eight percent stake in Chrysler instead of being paid back over $7 billion of taxpayer money the hedgies that resisted are looking like heroes.
