Believe you, me, it's neither going to get any better or go away anytime soon.

Let's leave the wild, unsubstantiated fantasies to the wingers, where they belong.

12. I've cross-posted to DKos from time to time. The reason I don't do it all the time, as you probably
know:

It's a lot of work!

Good job.

4. Absolutely true. I'm so so so fed up with the absolute lies and hatred spewed by
the RW. It's immature, unproductive and utterly regressive. Damn they make this seen as an ignorant country and laughing stock of the world.

9. I'm amazed at the unsubstantiated garbage that has passed for "news" over the India trip.

My particular favorite is the 'bomb-proof kilometer long 12X12 tunnel complete with air conditioning and closed circuit tv monitors' built just so Obama could visit the Gandhi museum.

As it turns out this was just a tent erected over the entrance and front part of the museum so Obama could safely get out of the car and walk inside.

17. Interesting article cross-linked in that diary from BombayNewsNet...
http://www.bombaynews.net/story/703926

It details the deals, monetary value and jobs affected. One thing I found interesting was that Harley-Davidson is negotiating to build a plant in India. That oughta make the biker's heads spin!
