Duh

LONDON (Reuters) - Right-wing "nutters" in the United States Congress holding up a deal to prevent a catastrophic debt default are a greater risk to the global financial system than problems in the euro zone, a British minister said Sunday.

Business Secretary Vince Cable said "irresponsible" people who had been gleefully anticipating the collapse of the euro currency had been confounded after European leaders agreed a second rescue package for debt-stricken Greece last week.

"The irony of the situation at the moment, with markets opening tomorrow morning, is that the biggest threat to the world financial system comes from a few right-wing nutters in the American congress rather than the euro zone," he told BBC television.

Seems the Secretary needs to keep in mind that it's the American voters that put those nutters into office - hence, Americans are pretty nuts.

The Loon Brigade has simply made the calculation that they'll oppose anything Obama tries to do in order to destroy his presidency at all costs. Obama is a fool for thinking they weren't crazy in the first place.

Regardless what happens.. Americans deserve this. Besides, it's the best way to destroy what's left of the middle class.

We drove around town in the S550 today. I hadn't noticed before but when you stop at a light, the front end of the car raises up a few inches for some reason. The car then lowers itself while you're driving depending on the road conditions. There's A/C coming out of the seats, which are covered in the finest leather and feel fantastic.. a fabulous sound system.. and when you step on the pedal, it accelerates like a sports car. The power is monstrous.

Of course, the car cost more than many people's homes.. so it should be remarkable. The only thing that isn't well designed are the various controls at the center console which can be switched on and off by the paws of canines.
