Re: The CNBC Santelli rant

Matt — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 17:16:29 -0000

I agreed with Santelli for this one issue, but I am also against the bail-out of Wall Street. My concern with the mortgage "bailout" is that I bought a reasonable house at a reasonable price and now i get to subsidize the guy who got a $500k house and and got an interest only loan.

I know there are legitimate tragedies out there, people losing jobs and medical bills climbing, but I'm not sure that we have a plan to sort that out. I don't any of my money going to speculators or fools, be they on Wall Street or Main Street.

You reversed the headline, at least you did as I understand the word "substitutes" to mean. It should say, "EA Substitutes 360 Footage For Wii Graphics In Tiger Woods Commercial"

If the guest room is unoccupied for most of the year, why not just manually close it yourself? Cost: Free.

Grass would be fertilized and possibly have pesticides on it. Any run-off from watering it would end up spawning toxic algae blooms in the Potomac.

Wood chips might come from chopped up bits of pressure treated lumber, and we know that would be bad! What if the wood chips was from trees that were grown near a power plant? They'd practically be made of radioactive coal dust.

Maybe the kids should just stay inside, with all the smog in the air in D.C.. Oh wait, the toxic indoor air might kill them too...

It's been said 5 times already but it needs to be said again.

Antibiotics are for bacterial infections. Flu is a virus. Flu is unaffected in any way, shape, or form by antibiotics.

Repeat 10 times and then re-write this poor excuse for a story.

Re: Coal Becomes West Virginia's State Rock

Last week, the governor of Virginia declared coal the state rock, and described how it “remains essential to economic growth and progress in West Virginia and the United States,” according to Green Inc.

You mean the governor of WEST Virginia. We've been our own state for almost 150 years

In some western states, namely Colorado, gathering rain water is actually illegal because it, "interferes with downstream flow". I wonder if we can ever get laws like that changed.
