    O'Reilly's bogus coverage of the Portland peace protest

    Anybody see his 'Talking Points' today? What a jackass! He shows footage of those 15 anarchists out of the 20,000 peaceful attendees as if THEY were the rally. Very misleading and irresponsible journalism. His show is complete garbage.

    I'm sorry, AR

    The stock market is not holding up. I can be of no service. My best recommendation at this point is to put your money under your mattress. Over 5% of my vast wealth is gone today.

    Cheney's trip

    Not going so well. I guess there's still a little work to be done in Afghanistan. ...Hey, this is the most war action the kid has ever seen. ...Unless of course you count shooting his lawyer friend in the face. I'm pretty sure his proximity to China made their stock market tumble too. The...

    Hannity & Colmes

    I know they've always been a joke, but when did they become Greta Van Susteren & Larry King? They haven't discussed anything remotely news-worthy or political since Anna died.

    VLNC up 20% today. Now what?

    Still very new to semi-aggressive trading. Caught my first biggie today. Bought Valence Technologies a week ago. They are at the forefront of large lithium-ion batteries, which seems to be the wave of the future for hybrid cars. After GM went begging to congress for funding of this...

    Biden on Daily Show

    Most unelectable guy I ever liked. Dammit - he's so close, but he doesn't stand a chance. Not these days. Too out of touch. Dems' version of McCain.
