And before we have the usual Obama water carriers chime in with it's Bushes fault, Obama has had four months to impact the economy with his stimulus and it continues to tumble. We are now far exceeding the expectations of unemployment that Obama predicted if we didn't borrow all that money from our children.

Henry Louis Gates.

If a cop responds to your home to investigate a possible burglary in progress, refusing to show identification, making a scene, and loudly, belligerently accusing that cop of racism (and insulting his mother, btw) is probably going to get you arrested for disorderly conduct. Professor Gates should have simply produced his ID proving his residence, and then said "thank you" to the officer who may very well been risking his life to protect Gates' property.


Racism exists in America, of that there's no doubt. But I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that Mr. Gates has damaged not only his own reputation and credibility as a scholar, but also, and more importantly, the efforts of those (admittedly few) well-meaning folks who work to ensure racism and stereotypes one day become a thing of the past.

Newsweek declares the Recession is over....LOL :S

Because the unemplyment level has leveled and the layoff rate has declined.

Well when the business owner lays off everyone but himself...I guess you could call that *OVER*. When there is no one left to lay off and not go out of business..I guess that is a *victory*..... :S Lefties are so smart.
