DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS:

The rest of PowerLine's Week in Pictures is here.

WHY I'M ADDING SAY UNCLE TO MY BLOGROLL: "We say more dumb shit before noon than most people say all day."

THE WEEK President Obama was first inaugurated, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed at 8,078; NASDAQ closed at 1,477. Yesterday, the DJIA closed at 18,197; the NASDAQ at 5004. Those were increases of 125% and 239% respectively. During that same period of time, my personal wealth has grown by 152%.

And I thought Republicans were the party that looked out for the Wall Street wealthy....

RAMIREZ ON THE ECONOMY: it grew!

WHAT A SURPRISE: Progressives are racist (too?). I've been wondering, for years now, when members of the 'victim party' would be recognized as the racist bigots they are ... it looks like it's beginning to happen.
