Most days I don't even watch any of the political shows in the evening…I'll watch repeats of Seinfeld, Will & Grace and Living Single…. All we actually get is commentating, no actual reporting of facts…just opinion and I think its hard for a lot of people to tell the difference between the two.

Well..that too…but I was talking about Roger Simon. Telling that kind of truth on national television is sure to get a few knives thrown his way.

True. The thing about Obama is that he is overly cautious. Sometimes he doesn't like offending people. He needs to throw these people under the bus.

“Wall Street is selling Obama down the river.”

Obama tries to loosen credit for small businesses

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama freed billions of dollars to help the nation's small businesses on Monday, hoping to get credit flowing again to Main Street, not just Wall Street. He heaped praise on the little guys of American industry, often overshadowed in the blitz of government bailouts.

The centerpiece of Obama's latest plan will allow the government to spend up to $15 billion to buy the small-business loans that are now choking community banks and lenders. That, in turn, could allow those banks to start lending money again to small companies to invest, pay bills and stay afloat.

"You deserve a chance. America needs you to have a chance," Obama said in an appeal to all those who run small businesses or hope to one day.

Obama's effort was, at one level, fundamental to helping the economy rebound. Small businesses have created about 70 percent of the new jobs over the past decade, and as their credit lines have dried up, so has their ability to thrive or survive.
