...Bank of America wants to give back the TARP money it borrowed. In one very funny sequence in Capitalism, you back up an armored truck to various banks and demand the return of our money. Maybe you were just a tad early? And the AIG money? I don't think we're going to see any of that. You cannot steal money, and then invest the money and then give it back. You can't, let's say you are the president of the Kiwanis. You can't take the organization's money, go make a profitable investment and then...

Perhaps Merkel really did have a more pressing engagement - the German embassy did not immediately return calls requesting an explanation. But for all the positive spin U.S. officials had put on Russia's hints of greater willingness to support new sanctions, Medvedev's absence from the podium on Friday spoke far more loudly of the difficulty the U.S. faces in mustering a durable coalition for sanctions. Without Russia...
...President, if I may return to a previous question, who in the Obama administration do allege has been supporting the opposition and fermenting the opposition? The Secretary of State got involved directly in the chaos that was going on in Iran, in Tehran, as well as the Secretary of Defense, and then finally Mr. Obama actually took a position, but then he corrected it himself...
