If you can’t stand a little sacrifice and you can’t stand a trip across the desert with limited water, we’re never going to straighten this country out.

Kill Bill says:
What a joke, Krugman says the gropement can print all it wants. Geithner said the debt ceiling should be infinite while Bernanke prints then spends 40 billion a month on mortgage backed paper
Obama wants to cut medicare etc and Boehner wants more tax revenue to buy drones.
The fiscal cliff is a ruse to create more customers for big health insurance, wreck small business, fine taxpayers for not buying health insurance they cannot afford while expanding our ginormous military and support the MIC.

Great cartoon. I notice the artist penned a little “apologies to Schultz”
I wonder if he did that to keep from getting sued by the Charles Schultz estate.. I have a hard time feeling warm and ffuzzy about Charlie Brown. Did you know that Schultz was a billionaire…and that his estate owns tons of commercial real estate nationwide? They sold a whole city block in downtown Austin a while back.
They keep running his cartoons…he’s been dead for nearly 13 years. They just keep ringing the cash register. It seems ghoulish to me. Maybe it’s the cartoon preferred by Sue Grafton readers, I don’t know. It’s very American, I’ll say that. Reminds me of Disney.
Not sure what my real complaint is here. Maybe I just have Peanuts Envy.

Tesla Was Cash Flow Positive Last Week, CEO Musk Says
The Model S last month was named 2013 “Car of the Year” by Motor Trend magazine, the first time the award has gone to an electric vehicle. Tesla has said it will build at least 20,000 of the cars at the Fremont plant next year, and add the Model X electric sport-utility vehicle in 2014.
Tesla rose 0.3 percent to $34.72 at 9:45 a.m. in New York. The shares increased 21 percent this year through yesterday. SEE:
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-12-04/tesla-was-cash-flow-positive-last-week-ceo-musk-says.html
I love this company. They’re spon on just as Tesla himself was spot on 70 years ago with his ‘Direct Free Energy’ concepts. It’s the company that will bring us back to NikolaTesla if we can keep the lobbiest from killing his concepts again.

Motor trend car of the year means shit if you actually spin wrenches or sell cars. Here is a list with some real crap.

My favorite being the 1983 winner, Renault Alliance, followed by the 300 series by Mopar.

Oh my Eddie, nicely done! I’m still giggling.
As if it matters, or we pretend the GOP has any solutions that are within the realm of working to “fix” anything.
Both of them are trying to fix a spending addiction by continuing to spend.
The main difference is Obama wants to tax a little bit more than the Repuke’s keepers want him to.
Whatever, this kabuki theater matters not at all. Next year is going to be more expensive than this one, and we can only pray our assets and wages stay flat and not shrink (more).
Whatever these bastards come up with is going to hurt us all. Bank on it. And Fiat on.

Jimski, who can argue with their 1960 choice, the American Motors Rambler. Actually, if you owned one now it wourld (guessing) probably be worth a bundle.
No, my point is that what’s going on at Tesla Motors is mega important because this brings to the forefront the concept of free energy…Nikola Tesla’s incredible discovery that was buried by JP Morgan and the power industry including big oil. Morgan famously said, ‘if you can’t meter it I won’t allow it’. And so it was destroyed.
The Tesla car is following that route of taking free energy and packaging it into their vehicles via recharging stations. Free energy is the great discovery of the 20th century and that is the key aspect of this great new car and why it must survive and be supported…no matter how they are financed.
Besides, this new Xmodel is huge and goes 0 to 60 in 4 seconds. Me want one.
