Making little rocks out of big rocks

Sorry for the dreadfully light blogging lately - for the record, here is a short summation of my thoughts lately.

• Bush will issue between 150-200 pardons between now and when he leaves office
• I'm still furious about the bailouts
• I think my initial view of Obama, as being an excellent figurehead, with no fixed ideology, is coming into sharper focus.
• And this is the funniest commentary on the bailouts I've seen yet. It's a good indicator that popular opposition remains strong.
