Nat'l Rifle & Nat'l RTL
* Nat'l Rifle & Nat'l RTL: Gun Owners of America president Larry Pratt helps compare the National Rifle Association with National Right To Life (NRA with NRTL). GOA is to the defense of the God-given right to bear arms as American RTL is to the right of children to bear arms (forearms that is). And Larry warned us about the dangerous HR45, the Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009.
* From the Floor of the Merc: CNBC's Rick Santelli on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange trading floor emceed a virtual revolt from the futures traders against Obama spending like a drunken democrat through his destructive stimulus fiasco. Santelli points out that the government is rewarding those who don't pay their mortgage, and if spending a trillion will bring in $1.5 trillion, then why not spend a trillion a day! (By the way, for those who joined Bob on his Bible Tour of Turkey, does this bring back memories? We enjoyed a great tour of the Merc prior to flying out of O'Hare for Istanbul!)
