Perhaps the Tories should hire the researcher who is providing Kirsty Williams with the right bullets to fire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-74411021093417358692009-02-10T09:01:00.000+01:002009-02-10T09:01:00.000+01:00I couldn't agree with you more, is this the best p...I couldn't agree with you more, is this the best person Labour can put up? On second thoughts he was the ideal person for Labour, you can't have a reasoned discussion with this buffoon. Labour and their friends in the media have done a fantastic job, in putting all the blame on the banks. Gordon Brown was at the hart of the expansion in credit he even gave a knighthood to the boss of RBS for his services to banking. It is very sad to see all those who work in banking are being tarred with the same brush; most should be allowed to keep the bonus they have earned, with the obvious exceptions, why should some one at a local branch on average pay suffer because of another’s folly in an unrelated area of the bank.<BR/>Last night’s newsnight discussion would have interesting if it wasn’t for that destructive elementAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-66985173438909749692009-02-10T05:45:00.000+01:002009-02-10T05:45:00.000+01:00"It's no time for a joker" - how right you are Gly..."It's no time for a joker" - how right you are Glyn. Take Biden (and I'm sure President Obama is hopes somebody will), Biden is turning into a Gatling gun gaffer. <BR/><BR/>But then Biden's loose lips were well known before Obama picked him as a running mate. <BR/><BR/>Toby Harnden of the Telegraph put it like this: "Barack Obama throws Joe Biden under the bus" after Biden's latest gaff: "there's still a 30 percent chance we're going to get it wrong". <BR/><BR/>But what does all this say about Obama. <BR/><BR/>Specifically, if Joe Biden is a joke who is the bigger joker? Biden for being a joke, or the person who picked him as a running mate? <BR/><BR/>We have had a terrible week in DC. Obama's picks for senior positions have led to one fallout after another. The New Mexico governor that Obama tapped for Commerce Secretary withdrew because he's under Federal investigation, then there was the Tom Daschle debacle, then another withdrew ... <BR/><BR/>Reminds me of that song, "three wheels on my wagon, and I'm still rolling along..." <BR/><BR/>Obama is down to three wheels - how many will he be down to by the end of next week? Will the President be into negative wheels by year end? <BR/><BR/>We have to have a wheel-stimulus package. The Senate has to agree to my bill or there will be a wheelastrophe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-532495956118748122009-02-10T01:35:00.000+01:002009-02-10T01:35:00.000+01:00World to Prescott: What you've created is a total ...World to Prescott: What you've created is a total bloody mess<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqpYXMq1hTwAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
