This past week was filled with WTF! moments.
A Little WTF here and a little WTF there and walk around a corner and, well look at that, another WTF.
Picking one single WTF will be a challenge to say the least on the matter.
Let's look at just a few of the WTF's for the week of January 18 to January 24th (from Monday to Sunday)of 2010:
Martha Coakley runs a "can't loose" campaign in the special Senate Election for the state of Massachusetts and forgets to campaign. Ultimately handing the win to Scott Brown.
Air America goes off the air. While not a big deal (if the ratings of the radio station were any indication) the fact that the Democrats had another blow leveled against them in a single weeks time could have lasting repercussions.
President Obama finally wakes up and returns to being the Obama we were seeing before the inauguration. Where has this guy been?
The First Amendment comes into question.
Free speech?
But whom should have that free speech?
We the People or we the corporations?
This is the big win for the WTF! of the week.
The 5 to 4 decision by the Supreme Court allowing corporations to pour millions into federal elections.
