Some Assembly Required Everything here is someone's opinion

Once again, it's time to read "Some Assembly Required" -- follow link. Here are just a couple of "teasers"

"Boogeyman Watch: A University of Michigan study found the major underlying factor driving the foreclosure crisis was loan originators' aggressive marketing of refinancing using adjustable rate mortgages. 'Aggressive marketing' sounds so much better than screwing the buyers, doesn't it?"

and

"E Pluribus Unum: In 2009 there were hundreds (well, 294 plus 124 by Irish nuts) of terrorist attacks in Europe, most the work of ethnic separatists. About 40 were credited to extreme leftist movements and a few from the far right. One was by a Muslim."

and:

"Bad News Leads: Only 37% of Americans feel the GOP vendetta to repeal the Affordable Care Act makes sense, and another 36% want an even more ambitious modern health care system, not less. If those who buy the GOP line understood what they will lose if the Republicans get their way that 36% would soon be over 50%, pleading for more, not less. And why do the 37% conned by the GOP get all the press while the 36% who want even more government sponsored health care reform never get mentioned?"
