News Morning Newsdome: Shameful CEOs
Posted by Alejandro A. Leal on Fri, Jan 30, 2009 at 4:30 PM
- Yep, its bad: Consumer spending and business investment all but disappeared.
- Worth my vote: President Obama chastises excessive CEO compensation as "shameful."
- I don't know why this headline gives me inner peace: Exxon profit down 33% as prices fall.
- A reality show that seemed real? Reality that was too theatrical? The end of the Blagojevich affair.
- Karl Rove off the hook. Four days before leaving office, Bush lawyer sent a letter to Rove's lawyer instructing him not to answer to future subpoenas.
- Not 2006: A PC manufacturer wants to make cellphones. Duude, you still have a Dell?
- Whoa, nobody told me it was Super Bowl weekend... do the Cardinals really have a shot?

Wall Street bankers handing out annual bonuses, which are down from last year BTW. Shameful? Maybe. A politician who advocates spending trillions of dollars of "stimulus" and will send his tax cheating Treasury Secretary to attack them? Shameless, definitely. BTW, the reductions in bonuses this year have cost NY state $ 1 Billion in taxes and NYC $ 275 Million because those evil bankers aren't paying as much in taxes. Nothing like a little deionization and class envy to grab a headline.
