Why don’t big business guys, or their stockholders, understand that they’re ferrying a scorpion across a river in exchange for his promise that he won’t sting them when he gets to the other side?

Why don’t libs realize that the big businesses they hate, frequently use the government to block as much competition as possible? A smaller government that did much fewer things would allow those big businesses to have to sink or swim. Conservative opinions on government functions would actually help them fight the business monster.

They overreached in trying to grab two more trillion plus dollar bags of boodle to go with the stimulus package; but they did get the stimulus bonanza, and they may still get a hunk of health care.

Figure a 6% corruption rake and they’re already $60 Billion to the good off the stimulus. If they get health care they’re another $60+ billion to the good. Big stakes poker.

That would have given the Dems in Congress an edge. Rather than be saddled with a mountain of radical legislation that they were expected to pass in the wink of an eye, they would have had time to stick it to the people a little bit here, a little bit there.

Democrat&Republican

“A Pox on both their Houses.”

A lot of folks are striving very mightily to drive a stake through her heart. It’s hard not to think they see her as a threat.

Not totally illogical either. Who really thought Al Franken could get elected Senator a year before he did?

I personally think that a majority even of Republicans won’t see Palin as the best Presidential candidate for at least a couple of election cycles, if ever; but we have a man in the White House whom the political luminaries surrounding Hillary Clinton thought no threat as little as eight months before he was elected.
