Week #1 Wrap Up: Who's Winning; Who's Losing

President Obama is now into his second week of office and some trends are developing:

WINNER's COLUMN:

Wall Street Executives who managed to pocket over $18 Billion in bonuses, all the while trillions of dollars of stock market value evaporating. 2008's Robber Barons make Enron's Ken Lay (known to Bush #43 as "Kenny Boy") look like a rank amateur. [see http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/CEOProfiles/story?id=6778419&page=1].

Exxon Mobil - $45 Billion profit in for fiscal 2008. I'm sure this is just a coincidence after having their cronies Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld & Rice minding the store in D.C. for the last eight years. [see http://money.cnn.com/2009/01/30/news/companies/exxon_earnings/?cnn=yes]

Tomorrow's Super Bowl Winners: The Arizona Cardinals, who are going to win their first Super Bowl to honor the memory of hero Pat Tillman.

The Rule of Law in the Executive Branch.

LOSER's COLUMN:

That crazy ex-Governor of Illinois, Rob Blagojavich. Fire your barber!

Rush Limbaugh, invoking his wing-nut ditto-head listeners to root for Obama and America to fail. The sad thing, he will be laughing all the way to the bank, as listenership will go up, along with his advertisers and income, during the Obama administration, just like it did during the Clinton years.

The 1.5 million civilian residents of the Gaza strip, now picking up the pieces and trying to re-build after a six-week punitive war waged by Israel.

The hard working, tithe-paying members of the New Life Church of Colorado Springs. Their collection plate monies have gone to pay thousands of dollars in salary & severance pay to Pastor Ted Haggard. Lately the church revealed they also paid substantial sums to a young male adult volunteer who had a lengthy affair with Pastor Ted while he was still in charge at New Life and still married to Mrs. Haggard. Doesn't it give you goose bumps knowing this crack-smoking, hustler-bonking, self-hating, counselor-predator was having weekly conference calls with top white House officials, including Karl Rove, and occasionally Pres. Bush #43?
