Obnoxious and Disliked

I'm well aware that many people are cheering, especially those who would identify themselves as "tea party" Republicans. Hey, Scott Brown won in Massachusetts, right? Shouldn't that be cause for celebration?

Not so much. I was intrigued by a tiny clip circulating around the Web right now, about 30 seconds of Sen. Brown saying that, "...it's important for everyone to have some form of health care." I can't stand unsourced videos, so I wanted to do a little digging.

Well, the good news is that I finally seem to have my website hits back down to a manageable level. The bad news is that it took a month of not posting to accomplish it. I seem to take lots of random hits, to the point that I ended up turning off linkbacks. Comments are still fine, the hits don't seem to matter now that spambots can't just fill this blog with linkback spam.

I'm still on the fence about where to take this blog, how often to post, what subjects to really focus on, and a lot more. However, this blog will remain up regardless, and I will update it as soon as I figure out what this new year is going to look like.

I'm not sure that you'll see me talking much about MSNBC most times, but this segment was wonderful.

Rachel Maddow on Obama's Afghanistan surge

I love the first 1:30 contrasting the "Nobel peace laureate" Obama with his decision to escalate troop levels. She even mentions the CIA, "secret" wars in Pakistan, and other things. Okay, so maybe critical thinking CAN, occasionally, come from the media.

Hey, if something pisses off the White House, I'm tempted to take a look at it. Since I've been looking at car bailouts and such over the past couple days, I thought this would be right down that same alley.

And now, since I posted YESTERDAY...well, a followup to prior blog entries can't hurt, can it?

Looks like GMAC, Chrysler's lending arm, is going to get a THIRD bailout from the government. Why? Because it couldn't raise enough capital on its own.
