2 things that brightened my day

1. Waxman replaced Dingell. Now I hope that we can get a full stop on the idiotic mountaintop removal of coal, which ramped up during the Bush administration. If one thing signifies the Bush administration's wanton disregard for the environment and overall poor energy plans, it's mountaintop removal for coal seams.

2. Joe the Plumber got a book deal. Good for him, just what America needs. A misinformed idiot speaking on issues of socialism, foreign policy, and the future of our country, none of which he seems to grasp but he will be championed by Fox News and most likely Republicans in 2012.

3. What the hay, just for kicks. If the Republicans continue to stonewall automakers and the worst happens, they will lose Ohio in 2012. The automotive industry is still strong in northern Ohio and the Republicans can't win the state without northern and parts of eastern Ohio. Not only for auto plants, but also associated and contributing industries.
