9209. wonkers2 - 11/14/2008 6:30:01 PM Very true. GM, Ford and Chrysler were shortsighted in betting so heavily on SUVs. Also, they missed the boat on diesels. GM and Ford have been skating on thin ice for a long time because they are so heavily leveraged. They lobbied successfully with the help of the UAW and Iron John Dingle against improvements in fuel economy standards. 9210. wonkers2 - 11/14/2008 6:41:39 PM However, the failure of the U.S. auto companies will have a cataclysmic effect on the American economy. 9211. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 11/14/2008 7:17:47 PM The cataclysm is coming one way or the other. Paulson is a still a whore for Wall Street and ineptitude continues to be rewarded because cronyism still rules in this administration.

Nicolas Sarkozy saved the President of Georgia from being hanged "by the balls" — a threat made last summer by Vladimir Putin, according to an account that emerged yesterday from the Élysée Palace. . . .
The Russian seemed unconcerned by international reaction. "I am going to hang Saakashvili by the balls," Mr Putin declared.
Mr Sarkozy thought he had misheard. "Hang him?" — he asked.
"Why not?" Mr Putin replied. "The Americans hanged Saddam Hussein."
Mr Sarkozy, using the familiar tu, tried to reason with him: "Yes but do you want to end up like [President] Bush?"
Mr Putin was briefly lost for words, then said: "Ah -- you have scored a point there."
