OT: After all the talk about following the rules of your faith that just occurred about marriage. Aren't Mormon's forbidden to gamble? I am sure they all are, but Mormons take it more seriously(hehe). Well, I think the rules are more like guidelines for all religions and the more important you are the more latitude you get, just like real life.

Romney Calls on Gingrich to Return Freddie Mac Fees (Bloomberg)

Romney attacking Gingrich over GSE "consulting" ill gotten gains from "housing history bubble". Gingrich shooting back about corporate raiding making him extrodinarily wealthy. Buffet on CBS 60 minutes this weekend saying "I did not set up all kinds of tax vehicles to make sure there are hundreds of little Buffets running around for generations controling the world" Of course you didn't uncle warren, you just openly admit that you leveraged the tax code that "other people" put inplace to protect uber rich people like yourself to drastically extend the profits of industries that were signifigant during your particular lifetime.  Along those lines, Obama on the  same program saying "It might take more than one term or one president to fix the economy" Ariana Huffington is all upset that the savior does not have a sense of urgency. Front page

Ron Paul? (snarc) No,No he is far too extreme and timely to hold the riegns of federal government. Something that has the power to point a gun at the heads of non protected citizens' (see above) to harvest the 20% of our GDP that has been working out really well ... for certain free market people mentioned above.

Ehh, maybe we can have a "successful businessman" like Trump hold a presser for "super smart" people like gingrich in a oppulent casino perpetually in some state of bankrupcy protection so that they can shine the light of liberty for the american people to see!
