3/22

1. Protesters have been visiting the homes of AIG executives. They have a whole protest tour going on, although it’s BYOTP - Bring Your Own Torches and Pitchforks. Or toilet paper for high school kids.

2. Companies have been using bailout money to give campaign contributions. I guess this is what they meant by being committed to recycling.

3. The head of the Senate Budget Committee said that the economy would bottom out this year. But Republican leaders like Rush Limbaugh are pessimistic. Actually, they would be pretty pessimistic if the economy rebounded too, because no one would vote for them anymore.

4. Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York is supporting Obama, because if he doesn’t, we would never get re-elected.

5. The world’s cheapest car has now gone on sale in India. It has no airbags, no air conditioning, no radio, no power steering, no wheels, and no driver. Actually, technically, it’s a spoon. Here's a picture of the car. It’s not only the world’s cheapest car, but also the most expensive soap box racer.
