2. This is the heart of Willard Mitt Romney's experience and practice of running a business and making money. Take a company, make it bleed, and while it is in the throes of bankruptcy, continue sucking the money out while employees lose out on everything. Yes. Mitt, let's take a real close look at how your conscience and values effectively guide your business mind:
3. Time to take a break....with Bill Maher. We need a laugh now and then. You have 6 minutes, and you can go to the bathroom before you get back:
4. Let's see how the "obstructionist Congress" responds to an opportunity to move this country forward. Boehner, McConnell and their boys have claimed that Obama has done "nothing". Let's see what the "nothing" is, and who really is doing it:
