Are Koch Brothers Hedging Government Default?

Here's a question I'd like to see the media investigate: Are the billionaire Koch Brothers that fund the Tea Party betting on derivatives that will soar if the U.S. government defaults on its debt? 

It's a fair question to ask: Where are the rich backers of the Tea Party putting their money? We know many of us will lose if the U.S. defaults, but who stands to gain? What are those connected with Freedomworks and Americans for Prosperity, such as Tobacco and Oil industry executives, and ex-FW-CEO Dick Armey, betting on financially?

Fuck the House Tea Party Radicals!

The tea partiers are a minority of the Republican caucus and only represent about 18% of the US population.

Speaker John Boehner should grow a pair and say too hell with the radicals in his own caucus that are holding the entire government hostage and just hold a vote on a clean debt ceiling and continuing resolution bill.

Built for 14 years, the third-generation Ford #Mustang stayed in production longer than other 

However, before it launched as a 1979 model it went through many design iterations including one incredibly awesome woodie-side shooting brake. Imagine one of these with a high-output 302 as the ultimate surf-wagon!

This woody wagon is the greatest Fox-body Mustang that never was
In production for 14 years, the Fox-body, third-generation Ford Mustang was ubiquitous, and it’s the reason “5.0” means something to a generation of gearheads. But the Fox’s road to showrooms was long, winding, and a little weird. Here’s the story.

This is a pretty amazing +LEGO  Mustang

This video of a 1:8 +Ford Motor Company Shelby GT500 #Mustang is pretty amazing (just make sure to mute it since the soundtrack is really bad). With everything from functional disk brakes, to moving pistons in the V8 and even a differential, this clearly took a lot of time to build.

If you actually believe capital punishment is a good thing, why insist on it being clean and antiseptic?

Lethal injection is the euphemism of death penalty methods. It makes killing seem clean and devoid of controversy which it clearly is not. It's good to see drug makers finally backing away. 

As drug companies back away from death row, who will fill the gap?
In 1998, Michael Yowell was convicted of killing his parents while trying to steal their money to buy drugs. After the killings, he was arrested and charged with murder. Since he lived in Texas, it…
