http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/christopherbooker/6845686/Copenhagen-accord-keeps-Big-Carbon-in-business.html As fairy-tale snow gently descended on Copenhagen, the great global warming conference degenerated through pantomime, boredom, chaos and anger to its entirely predictable conclusion – a colossal pile of fudge with a very hard and nasty rock hidden at its centre.

The Democrats have given the thumbs up to Ben Bernanke, architect of the "no strings attached, give yourself a bonus" Wall Street bailouts. Republicans have given the thumbs down. http://blogs.wsj.com/economics/2009/12/17/senate-banking-committee-roll-call-confirmation-vote-for-bernanke/ How can any objective person claim that the Democrats are not the party of Wall Street now?

NEW DELHI: Another Immigration reform seems to be on cards in the US. According to InformationWeek, a 600-page Comprehensive Immigration Reform for America's Security and Prosperity Act of 2009 proposes changes to visas provided to foreign students who get advanced tech degrees in the United States. It aims to make it easier for foreigners with advanced degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics from the US universities...

Under the Democrats' national health care scheme not only would OPM be charged with overseeing and administering federal employees health care but they will have the added charge of administering civilian federal health care as well. What does that mean? Basically, that Americans will be treated as “civil servants.” Are you starting to see the danger? The expanded “portfolio” of OPM should worry all Americans.

Not me. I think the gov't may have a legitimate role to play in setting up an appropriate regulatory healthcare framework to enable the private sector to provide and administer services to as many people as possible.

I can't watch that but are you saying Rubin is being unfairly maligned based on actions his son undertook? You'd think Taibbi would have enough on that scoundrel Rubin without needing his son (in fact I know he does as he's written about it).
