Rose Colored Glasses

Now, the mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the color of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes
--Joe Jackson

Interesting article on Charlie Rose. Am not a huge fan but the way he weirdly leans over that table when chatting with guests catches my attention.

During the meltdown last fall, the way he softballed questions to Warren Buffett, Tim Geithner, Hank Paulson et al in a manner that leads me to believe he has a core belief in the value of central planning and intervention.

I do like how he relies on private donations for his show. Although he operates on PBS, he refuses public sources of funds. So perhaps he's more market driven than I had suspected.
