A growing, productive economy? Not sure if that was an attempt at a trick question or not.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Only because the multimillionaire is opposed to paying him a living wage even going so far as to use congressional action to prevent it.

Homework assignment: Find out who qualifies, in Adjusted Gross Income, as being in the Top 50% but under the top 10% in tax year 2006. Extra credit: Justify that income range as being something other than "middle class".

Trickle. Down. Doesn't. Work.

It's a perfectly good people mover that would be a perfectly good HHR replacement that would sell well here in the US and is apparently built on a platform that will be sold in the US, but GM won't sell it here. I've stopped caring.

Wasn't there an article about a week ago saying that the GPS was going to calculate how far from home you were and only recharge you enough just to get you home?

When did this happen? Oh yea... when Obama was 4?

Raines was CEO! Davis IS CURRENTLY on McCain's CAMPAIGN STAFF.

Franklin Raines was CEO and that was from 1999 to 2004. Rick Davis was getting checks from Freddie Mac while being on McCain's campaign staff as recently as August. Try again.

Sarah Palin who recently said, "When you run for office, your life is an open book." McCain Camp: No Palin Medical Records Till After The Election from The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan by Andrew Sullivan This Howie Kurtz piece is amazing in many ways but there is one staggering piece of real news buried in it: "Governor Palin has no history of health problems," [McCain campaign spokesman Michael] Goldfarb says. "We believe that a candidate should be able to preserve some privacy in this process, and we're confident the American people will validate that judgment come election day." So the only objective evidence we will be allowed to have about Palin's medical history, including the bizarre story of her fifth pregnancy, is Michael Goldfarb's assurance that she has "no history of health problems" and that "privacy" trumps even basic transparency and accountability in a national campaign.

An article in Newsweek has now revealed that McCain's campaign manager, Rick Davis, was receiving monthly $15,000 checks until last month from Freddie Mac, the mortgage agency that the government recently took over. In addition, the head of McCain's transition team, William Timmons, Sr., was a registered lobbyist for Freddie Mac until this month according to an article on Bloomberg News. His firm received $260,000 this year for unspecified work. Although McCain likes to rail against lobbyists and how he will put them in their place, having his campaign being run by people who lobbied for Freddie Mac cuts to the heart of his pitch as a reformer. This story is soon going to be all over the place (see for example, Newsday, the NY Times, and Roll Call).

Again, Why would any business expand in the current market?

I would imagine that depends on the speed you're traveling. What about regenerative braking?

and Palin's husband was in an Alaska separatist movement until 2001.... you obviously don't care about an even closer association.

Great... so they're more productive... and pay less taxes.... BUT THEY STILL HAVE NO CUSTOMERS!@!!!!!!

Protoss Dragoon?

That's just dumb..... ... so I've driven 40 miles... and now I'm stuck in traffic. The gasoline motor is still running but not doing anything other than creeping me along at 5mph when it could be using that excess energy to recharge the batteries. Sorry, if this is true, GM just lost me on the Volt.

who'd he bang to get the rugrat?

I need to get one of the new "Geezer \ Gigit '08" signs

I have a shell casing about that size <don't know the actual size> on my mantle from 1917 that my great uncle fired.

I'll say it again.... tax breaks for companies won't amount to a hill of beans if there aren't people to buy the products they produce

It's like I have a freakin crystal ball or something!

Obama's tax plan is mostly neutral though slightly negative. McCain's is VERY negative. McCain will be a fiscal conservative out of necessity... there won't be anything left to spend.
