1. Wolf Blitzer: Biggest idiot on the THree Monkeys Media

:eyes:

[Rose Siding]

2. Wolf pointed out that the admin was using retail-type marketing tactics

That's a pretty unflattering observation to make. His geniality on the topic is irritating but I don't think he was an idiot this time.

3. Cafferty wouldn't give Wolf the point

and was acting kind of obtuse about the matter. Nice to see Wolf have to kiss Cafferty's ass at the end...

4. It would be interesting to know how much the oil and armaments

industries have simultaneously prospered since the beginning of war. I think it's a point he should have brought out.

5. Exxon's profits alone are $114 billion since 2003

$21 billion in 2003
$25 billion in 2004
$36 billion in 2005
$32 billion in the first three quarters of 2006

6. Well, well. There's a surprise. And they'even won a third appeal!
