1. Remember how hyperventilating Republicans got, once upon a time?

Oh, there was Obama, bowing to heads of state all over the world, even if he was just inclining his head because he was taller and polite, it was bowing, I tells ya!

Anyone hearing a peep from the usual quarters of how embarrassing it is for the United States to be so craven before the House of Sawed?

2. Let me guess...MBS says it was a "rougue" killing, so the case is shut

He knew nothing about it, and the arms deal continues.

Am I right?

4. Think Citi Group.

All about the money and nothing more or less.

The Treasury Department is issuing Billions in Notes and Bonds monthly to stave off our massive debt created by the lopsided Tax give away. Which btw,benefits foreign investors to the tune of almost 50% of the total give away.
