Just in case you missed them:

1. The Arabs now own one of the most beautiful buildings in the world, a symbol of America’s best large city, New York - the Chrysler Building.

2. The Belgians now own America’s largest Brewery, Anheuser-Busch.

3. At the current accelerating rate of daily debt, the national American debt will hit $10,000,000,000,000 (ten trillion dollars), sometime within the first week of Barack Obama’s presidency.

4. The second largest bank failure in U.S. History - the collapse of the mortgage holder IndyMac - was immediately followed by a FED plan to bail out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - which holds $12 trillion in mortgages. Stocks still fell this morning.

5. Blood-swapping, appallingly tattooed, anorexic baby factory Angelina Jolie, the over-rated “actress,” gave birth to twins.

See, prayer really doesn’t work.
