Traveling needs regulation and other stuff

There was a time in this country when a snowstorm didn’t throw airline travel into a tailspin for two or three days. The Atlanta airport was just crazy… more on this later.
- Rick Santelli’s rant that got so much publicity may have been planned. Right wing billionaires were probably behind it. Read on. It is sad when you look at a billion dollars in your account and you think, “Damn, I must have more by any means necessary.”
- Democratic presidents create jobs. Now, even the Wall Street Journal believes this fact.
- The Dow fell below 7000 for the first time since 1997. I just know Republicans are going to blame Obama for this awful economic crisis.
- Bush lawyers made many errors in early counter-terrorism documents according to new memos released today. I’m not surprised. Bush wasn’t interested in the process. He just wanted a result.
- Barack Obama has offered Russia a deal in order to get Russia to help with Iran. We want Iran to stop pushing for long-ranged missiles and nuclear weapons and Russia wants us to stop Star Wars. Obama basically offered them a compromise. We will cut back on development of SDI if they lean on Iran. This could be a great deal for us. We have been throwing billions of dollars into a program that I don’t think has ever worked. Maybe it has worked to some degree, but is it keeping us safe? I don’t think so.
