Sauce for the Goose


Three Japanese nuclear reactors built by GE seem to be in the process of radioactive meltdowns. Should Jeffery Immelt, the CEO of GE be summoned to Japan to be humiliated and asked to explain these failures to the Japanese people … and exactly what his company is doing to remedy things? Should he be asked by the Prime Minister of Japan, Naoto Kan, to set up a multi-multi-billion dollar slush fund to compensate the victims of this tragedy? You decide.

(For those who don't get the subtle parallel reference of this blog entry ... think of the BP company as  the gander that was sauced.)

Par for the Course


Let's see ... Japan is in radioactive meltdown, Qadaffi is in the process of a lethal cleansing of his opposition, Saudi Arabia has just invaded Bahrain, the rest of the Arab world is teetering on the brink of anarchy, Iran is once again "eliminating" street demonstrators ... and what is the leader of the free world doing? (See: ABC Story.)

Afterward: And his picks to win the March Madness basketball tournement (see BBall Brackets.)
Even later: And he and his family are off to Rio (see Blame It on Rio.)
