10 Things Obama Can Do ASAP
President Elect Obama (smiling broadly) should do ten things as soon as possible:
1. Name his Treasury Secretary to soothe the markets. They don't like uncertainty. Doing so can act as a "stent" in the clogged arteries of credit lenders until he takes office and might save Christmas for small businesses who need to buy inventory now.
2. Speak publicly about his regulatory intentions for banks and send a transition team to Treasury.
3. Announce a WPA-like infrastructure project to rebuild crumbling bridges, roads, levees will be the first order of business.
4. Announce his plan for a Conservation Corp that will be building Green Infrastructure.
5. During the lame duck session of Congress pass a Foreclosure Freeze until well into the first weeks of the 111th Congress and pass a stimulus package.
6. Name his Defense Secretary. Call for an end to air raiding villages in Afghanistan as President Karzai has asked today. 40 Civilians at a wedding party were killed today by US air-strikes and 28 wounded. This is ginning up the Insurgents.
7. Meet with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Explain that we have a mandate. Let them know he intends to be bold. Their constituencies are the house and the senate and they have to sell it. Being overly cautious and timid is not the way to undo the damage that was done by the radical right. Physics is physics. Clinton governed from the middle and it was perceived as weakness and exploited by Newt Gingrich.
8. Make Joe Lieberman Ambassador to The Palestinian Territories!
9. Do The Randi Rhodes Show!
10. Buy those beautiful girls a puppy. Tip: Yorkies and Silkys don't shed!
She's on Huffpost now.

"Is that a joke?"
Randi Rhodes thinks she's funny. But all she is is a pathetic liar. She is one reason why conservatives fight the Fairness Doctrine. Nobody wants to listen to her.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Posted: 11/6/08 at 3:59pmYou either.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Randi is an odd one. I'd listen to her show and say "Yes!...Exactly!.. Good point!.....Wait, what?.....WTF?"
She gets off track and kind of goes nuts. About 80% of the time she's great.
And this is about right- 8 of the ten are right on. Then...she's gone.
And Goth....There is NO fairness doctrine.
