Drudge: Rush Limbaugh has signed a new contract through 2016. The deal is worth a reported $400 million over the eight years, that translates into about $38 million per year with a $100 million signing bonus. Over the course of the contract Rush will make enough money to give every man, woman and child in the United States $1.33. Yes, Limbaugh could literally buy the country a Coke.
AP Poll: People would rather barbecue burgers with Barack Obama than with John McCain. Do you think that there will ever come a day when people look at candidates and say something like “I like his fiscal policy, I’m going to vote for him.” Rather than “That guy seems like he would be fun at a barbecue, I’m going to vote for him.”
St. Pete Times: First it was the airlines, now some restaurants are going to start charging you for things that you’ve always gotten for free. Things like ketchup. I have decided that I’m going to blame this on farmers growing corn for Ethanol instead of food.
AJC: Herman Sloan, a Municipal Court judge here in Atlanta doesn’t like cell phones in his courtroom. He REALLY doesn’t like them. So when someone’s phone rang, and then another guy’s phone rang, He gave the two numbskulls a choice between a $200 fine or ten days in jail. Not surpsingly they both took the fine. Herman Sloan is my new hero.
