Oddly enough, I don't have any problem with that. :p:D I expect it will be that way for most of the rest of your life.

Little Miss Sunshine, that's you all over again. :p

Little Miss Sunshine, that's you all over again. :p

I was born in one of the highest birth years of the whole Boom, so I'm feeling right at home. ;)

Ok, that settles it. All of you are officially outside the circle of trust. No bailout money for you.:mad: :p

These guys really just do not get it.

It's beyond funny anymore.

You aren't paying attention. I'm giving you all a chance. Send me one dollar. $1.00 and I will let you in on the ground floor of this earth shattering, exclusive offer. IPO in my telegraph business. It is a failing enterprise that I will petition the Obama administration for bailout money. I should be able to rescue this business for a mere 200 Billion. If that works out, i'm planning a new business that will help prop up the Equine business, the agriculture industry, service industry, etc. My plan will be to use Horses. Yes, horses to speed delivery of the U.S. Postal service throughout the United States. Think of the job creation!

Dude, you are a friggin genius. How about we get a bunch of birds and tie messeges to their legs and send them over the ocean. We can also invent a high tech way to communicate using radio waves to send a code consisting of dots and dashes. If that don't work, we get a bail out again.:D

Do I take it that your'e in? I need some executives to assist with the initiaL skimming.

If they are failing - they are FAILING for a reason. Let them fail. New outlets will replace them.

Exactly, and there are some - mainly those who didn't drink the "information wants to be free" kool-aid the left was offering up several years ago - like the Wall Street Journal that seem to be doing quite nicely, thank you very much.

Rupert Murdoch wrote an op-ed on the subject last week that was an interesting read; one of the things he pointed out that no-one else seems to have pointed out is that, once the government declares media outlets to be non-profits, they can no longer back political candidates - something the left would just love to shut down, as can be seen by the hysterical reaction from the Democrats in Congress to the temerity of the Catholic Church speaking out on the abortion funding issue - Woolsey demanded that the IRS investigate whether their tax-exempt status should be yanked, effing b**ch:

(if anyone finds the NSDAP trappings offensive, sorry, but since Herr-y Reid took the gloves off by essentially equating the opponents of Obamacare with pre-Civil War slave owners, it's fair game as far as I'm concerned; to wit:
