Fifteen states are in an economic crisis. Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island and Wisconsin are teetering on the verge of insolvency. Official unemployment is at 10.2%; counting those who have drawn all available benefits and are still out of work, and those who are working part-time but who need full-time, the figure may well be over 20%. The number of houses in various stages of delinquency or foreclosure is at its highest since such records were kept. After nearly a year of telling us how great his “strategy” is, Obama has finally decided to call together some people to talk about jobs; but that won’t be until next month. Whether that will be before, or after, he decides what to do about Afghanistan, is not known.

Q. Why is Mike Tyson such as ass? (Janice – Covington, KY)
A. I met Mike once; I have my picture with him hanging on the wall. He was a pure gentleman. To shake his hand was like shaking hands with a country doctor. He was soft spoken and very polite. The very next night, he won his first major professional bout at the Las Vegas Hilton. What changed him? Ask Don King.
