It won’t go overnight, but its demise will be virtually guaranteed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Without that bailout, Detroit will need to drastically restructure itself. With it, the automakers will stay the course — the suicidal course of declining market shares, insurmountable labor and retiree burdens, technology atrophy, product inferiority and never-ending job losses. Detroit needs a turnaround, not a check.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/19/opinion/19romney.html"&gt;Mitt Romney - Let Detroit Go Bankrupt - NYTimes.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://brian.sweeting.net/post/60585501</link><guid>http://brian.sweeting.net/post/60585501</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Nov 2008 16:07:10 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>"There’s a delicious irony of seeing private luxury jets flying into DC, and people coming off of..."</title><description>““There’s a delicious irony of seeing private luxury jets flying into DC, and people coming off of them with tin cups in their hands, saying that they’re going to be trimming down and streamlining their businesses. It’s almost like seeing a guy show up at the soup kitchen in high hat and tuxedo. Kind makes you a little bit suspicious as to whether or not…we’ve seen the future. There’s a message there. Couldn’t you all have downgraded to first class or jet-pooled to get here? It would have at least sent the message that you do get it.””&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;Rep. Gary Ackerman, D-New York, to the chief executive officers of Ford, Chrysler and General Motors at a hearing of the House Financial Services Committee. &lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/11/19/autos.ceo.jets/index.html"&gt;Big Three auto CEOs flew private jets to ask for taxpayer money - CNN.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://brian.sweeting.net/post/60566532</link><guid>http://brian.sweeting.net/post/60566532</guid><pubDate>Wed, 19 Nov 2008 14:04:00 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>Getting beat at Wii Bowling by a 4 year old.</title><description>Getting beat at Wii Bowling by a 4 year old.</description><link>http://brian.sweeting.net/post/60230000</link><guid>http://brian.sweeting.net/post/60230000</guid><pubDate>Mon, 17 Nov 2008 21:26:42 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>My Top 5 Artists (Week Ending 2008-11-16)</title><description>&lt;a href="http://www.last.fm/user/sweeting/charts/?date_to=1226836800"&gt;My Top 5 Artists (Week Ending 2008-11-16)&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;ol&gt;
