The economic crisis: Wolves at the door

Financial mess and gathering recession dominate Barack Obama's agenda

Turns out Spitzer likes to pay for it, sex that is. He's been linked to an online prostitution ring that was busted last week and allegedly admitted this fact to his senior advisers this morning. I knew there was a reason he was so desperate for new revenue. Those girls don't come cheap, you know.
