State of the Economy

What a dreary day in the united States! To start the day off, an American icon ( General motors ) went and filed for bankruptcy. This puts many workers on the unemployment line and it will not help our economy in any short order. Not soon after GM filed, the NYSE delisted the firm. If you still happen to own stock in GM, I do, then it's possible that we may never get our money back out of the company. My bet is that in the longer term, I'll recoup my investment with a very decent return. Can't do any worse than i've been doing with Microsoft.Time will tell, I guess.
I'm wondering if I can now buy a GM vehicle at one of those major dealer discounts that I've been hearing about? Not happening in Tampa,Florida, yet.

Reverse Racist?

So once again, racist Rush Limbaugh is up to his old tricks, the typical conservative asswipe!
You've all heard about him calling judicial nominee Sonia Sotomayor a reverse racist because of her stance with the firefighters, in which, according to Rush, she sided against the white firefighters.
What I would like to know is, what the fuck is reverse racism? You are either a racist or you are not. Going by the theory of Mr. Limbaugh, if you are a racist against a white person of color, you are a reverse racist. If you are racist against people of other color, then you are just a racist. What is the fucking difference? There is no difference in the real world. A racist is a racist, period!
