-Exxon Mobil announced quarterly profits that are the highest ever recorded by an American company. They are making $1,500 per second. Per second. I don't think there's a derogatory comment I can make that you haven't already thought of yourself.
-Oddly, these record profits actually fell short of Wall Street analysts expectations. There's something really amiss with the thinking of people on Wall Street when a corporation can make $1,500 per second and still falls short of expectations.
-The new John McCain ad compares Barack Obama to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears and refers to Obama as "the biggest celebrity in the world." I don't know that Obama is the biggest celebrity in the world, but he is certainly popular wherever he goes, as Obama proved on his Premature Victory Lap around Europe. McCain does make a good point in this ad. Obama, Spears, and Hilton are all well-known for being nothing more than being well-known. Obama may have contributed slightly more to society than the blonds in question, but not much more. And thankfully, no video of Obama having sex has ever popped up on the Internet. Yet.
