I've done a courtesy search for the term 2007 for you. See if you can find what you're looking for in the list below:

• More “green” magic!

  Check green this nonsense out:

  Oil companies will pay $6.8 million in fines for not meeting federal quotas for blending in cellulosic biofuels – those produced from grasses, wood and plants – even though there weren’t enough of those biofuels available for use, the New York Times reported. Those fines are likely to rise in 2012 because the cellulosic biofuel quotas that refiners have to meet will rise more than 30 percent to 8.65 million

• Proof is in the pudding..

  A while back, when we where debating the democrat’s demand that they be allowed to raise taxes as part of the strategy being looked at to bring the outrageous and out of control government spending that has been going on since the democrats took control of congress and the purse strings back in 2007. Some of us pointed out how horrible an idea allowing them to raise revenue now , while pretending to make cuts … Read more

• FM and FM Reloaded

  A couple off weeks ago, the SEC indicted a number of executives from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for fraud. A detailed look at the indictment is here. Money quote is a long one, but I think you have to read it:

  The SEC’s complaint against the former Fannie Mae executives alleges that, when Fannie Mae began reporting its exposure to subprime loans in 2007, it broadly described the loans as those “made to

• LSM trying to bullshit us again..

  I told you this was coming, and well, here it is:

  (Reuters) – Home sales rose in November, adding to hints of recovery, but updated data showed the housing crash was much deeper than previously thought.

  The National Association of Realtors said on Wednesday that sales of previously owned homes increased 4 percent from October to an annual rate of 4.42 million units.

  At November’s sales pace, the 2.58 million unsold homes on

• I smell a rat!

  No, not regarding NAR suddenly coming clean about housing sales numbers being inflated by as much as 20% or more, but by this admission, right at the time the crooks trying to win next years election, after 3 abysmal years of idiotic and destructive policies, can then suddenly claim things got better. Revise the numbers downwards, and blame Boosh as well for this since it conveniently started in 2007, then come up with new … Read more

• CBO numbers fail again.

  Recently I posted about how the CBO had to downgrade the effects it was claiming for the Patronage Bill. Certain people then proceeded to not just question that this was what happened, while trying to defend this epic trillion dollar failure, but to imply I was purposefully being dishonest about the CBO being dishonest – leaning left in that dishonesty – or the way the LSM reports on this crap. Well, the the usual … Read more

• Turkeys and Drumsticks 2011

  For four years running, I have taken advantage of the Thanksgiving Holiday to give out my awards for Turkey of the Year and Golden Drumsticks. The latter are for those who exemplify the best traits in our public sphere. The former are for those who exemplify silliness and stupidity. I rarely give them out to someone who is evil; they are reserved for those who regularly makes me shake my head and wonder what they’re … Read more

• Iranian nukes and politics

  “Unexpectedly” – man that word sure as hell seems to be abused by the LSM since Obama won the WH – we are told by the IAEA that The Iranians will soon have a nuke thanks to help from ex-Soviet scientists right as everyone is talking about Israel doing the world’s dirty work for it, yet again, I should add. It seems Iran has solved whatever issue was holding them back and will soon … Read more

• Fugly Prius Owner

  Sanctimony is hard work, even for the truly pious. Check out this prog Prius owner, know how I can tell her political affiliations? Her love and compassion for her fellow man, her tolerance for all things different, her calm and patient attitude in disagreements, her matriarchal affection for child rearing, oh, and her fastidiousness both in her grooming and appearance.

  Saving the planet is a full time effort, and real environmentalists do not suffer the … Read more

• The Long Hard Slog

  GDP went up at a 2.5% annual pace last quarter, which is pretty decent — wasn’t “austerity” supposed to kill us? We’re now back to GDP level we were at … almost four years ago. Yes, it’s time to party like it’s Q4 2007. An important point, jumped out at me, however:

  real GDP is finally back to its pre-recession peak, and it’s taken us an historically very long time to get here. The
