“Radioactive.”
Good word to describe the Redoutable Wrangel's true character. (Mis-spelling is deliberate -- I think the 'W' helps set him off more properly.) Has ever there been a more openly abusive, self-enriching MO? And yet we see him persistently re-elected, lavishing among the ruling councils of Washington's power elite, while Poor Harold has what should be Wrangel's richly deserved moniker chained to his ankle.
For Poor Harold, this certainly must have been a year of particularly memorable learning.

All Car Companies should have came forward with a full disclosures of what car were dangerous. Instead of waiting for a huge media blitz and tons of public pressure. I never seen so many car companies GM - FORD - TOYOTA - HYUNDAI having recalls all at the same time. I had no idea my car was affected until I looked on http://www.carpedalrecall.com and found I had a bad Anti Lock control unit on my 2008 Pontiac G8 , my co workers Ford Truck had a recall also. So be careful
