On Sunday, I fell victim to the lawn mower. As I was mowing the lawn, I hit a 3"x1"x2" chunk of basalt. My shin was the victim. Seeing my shin bone through the wound convinced me that I needed to pop by the local ER and get a stitch or three.

It's interesting to hear all the talking heads and financial experts going on and on about how unexpected this financial crisis is. Even Paul Volker is surprised at how fast everything collapsed as if this was totally unexpected. Follow me below to see evidence that we all should have known about how tenuous the foundation of our financial system really was years ago.

We give a lot of much deserved grief to CNN over it's coverage of real issues. But occasionally, they manage to eek out a base hit for the good guys. This time, it is a hanging curve ball crushed out on to Weyland Ave!

Are we really about to hand out $1 TRILLION to the creators of the biggest looting of taxpayers money in history? As a country, we are broker than broke and the solution is to borrow more to keep our corrupt system afloat?

As a night owl in the Pacific Time Zone, I was watching The Rachel Madow show when MSNBC broke in with a news flash that there was a possible car bomb attack on the US Embassy in Yemen. No details yet, just a 30 second blurb by one of the staffers at MSNBC.

UPDATE:

From MSNBC.com

SAN'A, Yemen - A car bomb exploded outside the U.S. embassy in Yemen on Wednesday, officials and witnesses said.

An embassy spokesman told NBC News that the heavily-fortified compound's main gate was hit by an explosion at 9:15 a.m. local time. The blast was followed by "several secondary explosions", the spokesman said. Witnesses also reported hearing heavy gunfire.

Smoke was seen rising from the site and regional TV news networks Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiya reported that one of the embassy's buildings was ablaze.

According to local reports, a second car carrying gunmen in police uniforms arrived at the scene soon after the car bomb exploded. They reportedly immediately began firing at the embassy's guards.

Please go to ABC Poll Comments and demand that ABC make the reporters cover real issues. I went to ABC.com to check out the headlines and ran across this. I entered my comment (included below the fold) and I am asking you to please go and enter a comment of your own.

UPDATED: I just went to ABC Poll Comments to see if anyone actually left comments. I counted 10 new comments asking to here more about the issues. Thank You all for taking the time to leave comments at ABC Poll Comments. I hope more of you see this and join in. It's a party, you don't want to miss it do you?

Is this election going to be the close election all the pundits are talking about? No way, this has landslide written all over it. But as long as people focus on national polling numbers instead of the state by state polls, it will look like a close election.

This dairy contains information that is easily accessible on the Internet. But I would venture to guess that although most people have heard of the Keating 5, not many people actually know the story.
