A NEW WEBSITE and stuff.

In the old days of broadcast announcements we would say, "bulletin, bulletin, bulletin, a new website now available. OK, we wouldn't say "new website etc."' but the bulletin is correct. There would also be a few audible tone beeps for emphasis.

I now have a new website courtesy of Steve Diamond and Ellen Mann. Thank you both.

Here's the link.

Again I thank you for tuning into this blog from time to time.

Stuff on the news wires:

Senate Democrats on Tuesday lost in their bid to have major oil companies pay billions of dollars more per year in taxes but are vowing to keep the issue alive in high-stakes budget talks with Republicans.
By a 52-48 vote, Republicans and oil-state Democrats sank a bill repealing $21 billion in tax incentives over 10 years for the five biggest private integrated oil companies.

Democrats Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Mark Begich of Alaska and Ben Nelson of Nebraska opposed the bill, while Maine Republican Sens. Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe backed the plan.

We are in a tax and cash crisis in this country. The poor and elderly are being whittled of savings and assets and services. The oil companies are making billions and billions of dollars in profit and the Senate won’t pass an oil company tax bill. UNBELIEVEABLE!

NOT ONE OF THE SENATORS WHO OPPOSED THE BILL CARES ABOUT AMERICA. THEY CARE ONLY ABOUT THEIR CONSITUTENTS AND GETTING REELECTED.

SHAME, SHAME, SHAME ON THEM AND THE SENATE.
