The Sunday Funnies: I admit it -- I just don't get it.

“Nuclear weaponry, of course, would be the be-all, end-all of just too many people in too many parts of our planet”

“When Putin rears his head, he is headed for Alaska. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there.”

“Oil and coal? Of course, it’s a fungible commodity and they don’t flag, ya know, the molecules, where it’s going and where it’s not. But in the sense of the Congress today, they know that there are very, very hungry domestic markets that need oil first. So I believe that what Congress is going to do, also, is not to allow the export bans to such a degree that it’s Americans that get stuck holding the bag without the energy source that is produced here, pumped here. It’s got to flow into our domestic markets first.”

“Displacement transactions permit the lateral movement of gas through a transportation network. The configuration of many pipelines is such that it may not be apparent whether a given movement of gas is forward or backward from the point of receipt. It can be argued that all transportation service is performed by displacement as the physical delivery of the same molecules of gas is impossible.”

“As I say, inaction is not an option. We’ve got to shore up our economy. This is a crisis moment for America, really for the rest of the world also. Looking to see what the impacts will be if the impacts were not to shore up the impacts on Wall Street on Main Street, because the ultimate adverse effects on Main Street, and how that affects globalization that we’re a apart of. And what the bailout really does is help those who are concerned about the healthcare reform, make it better. Make it make more sense. To shore up our economy. It’s gotta be all about job creation. To reducing taxes and reigning in spending and giving tax relief to reduce taxes for Americans. And trade, we’ve got to see trade as opportunity, not as competitive, scary thing, but one of jobs being created in the trade sector today. All those things under the umbrella of job creation. The bailout is a part of that.”
