By Capt. Fogg: "Let the irony begin" -- Republican bragging about economic expertise rings hollow as the taxpayers look at shouldering unbelievable new bailout debt, as Congress and the Bush administration decide what to do.
Thursday
By Michael J.W. Stickings: "Zapatero! (or, where the hell is Spain?)" -- Let us count the ways McCain seems to have an embarrassing growing set of deficits regarding Spain vs. Latin America, mid-east borders and religious sects, Chechoslovakia (?) etc., etc., etc.

Monday
By Michael J.W. Stickings: "Richard Wright (1943-2008)" -- ". . . a founding member of Pink Floyd and the band's longtime keyboardist died today at the age of 65," begins Michaels outstanding and very moving tribute to Wright (commenters say it is the best on the web).
By Carl: "How the mighty have fallen" -- Carl knows New York ever so well, and writes an excellent piece about "three huge names in the brokerage field -- Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, and Merrill Lynch -- tumble into oblivion."
