Today

* There is a great bumper sticker at Cafepress:


I Support President Obama bumper sticker
Here in central Ohio, there are still a few nutcases with Bush-Cheney
stickers on their cars. I'm not sure about their reasons for displaying such an unattractive sign.

* What is it with CNN's Lou Dobbs? Has he gone off the deep end or is he trying to improve his ratings?

* The "Cash for Clunkers" is a big success at local car dealerships.
Dispatch:
The back lot at Dennis Hyundai is a jalopy graveyard, tangible evidence that the public has responded in droves to the federal government's "Cash for Clunkers" program....
....Dealers across central Ohio report strong turnout for the incentive, which began in earnest on Friday. Customers can get up to $4,500 for trading in a gas guzzler for a more fuel-efficient new car....
....The effect was particularly notable at Dennis Hyundai on the North Side, which sold 131 vehicles under the program from Friday to Monday....

Awesome! What a stroke of genius!
