Meet The Press was preempted by the French Open last Sunday, so I toddled over to ABC to get my political fix on This Week. NEVER AGAIN! It was horrible! I couldn't even watch. Ann Coulter and Mike Huckabee were panelists. That will teach Gov. Rendell to tick off David Axelrod - poor Rendell having to sit across from the Witch of the Republican Party.

    I'd say the French Open did the country a favor.

    Obama was of course correct. American corporations are making money hand over fist. What Obama did not say and should have is that the American workers who make those huge corporate profits possible are being abused and are not seeing the first dime of these increased profits. As for the Mitt, well as usual he is full of s__t. He has no idea how ordinary folks live. I wonder if there is something in the book of Mormon where god spoke and on the 8th day he created Bain capital to ship all our jobs to China. Please Mitt go back to Utah. Peddle your bull out west.
