My current heresies

Subversive thoughts for the day:

If you can't understand the risks of an adjustable rate mortgage, you aren't sufficiently financially savvy to own a home.

A Congress with sufficient time to chat with baseball players (twice!) about what they've injected, but without sufficient will to make any meaningful legislation, should probably be universally fired and replaced with people more interested in helping the country than in meeting athletes.

Presidential candidates should actually have positions on issues.

People who are paid to analyse candidates should talk about those positions, not about candidates' clothing, spouses or 'presense'. Those who talk about these other items should be treated like gossip columnists, and treated with the requisite respect.

Does Al Sharpton DO anything? Or is he just professionally offended?
