Friday Morning News And Links

Active rigs: 189 (steady)

RBN Energy: NGL storage, the series continues.

WSJ Links

Section M (Mansion): seldom read.

Section D (Arena): Later

Section C (Money & Investing):

Section B (Marketplace):
Section A:
  • Obama-NSA spied on all Americans -- well, at least anyone who connected to the Internet; providers had no clue; blame it on Bush Patriot Act; no links; story everywhere; as noted earlier, a new scandal would knock the other bucket of scandals off the front page [Later, Obama press conference, in which he said: "All in Congress knew of NSA intelligence gathering; no one is listening to your phone calls." If that is accurate -- everyone in Congress knew -- it speaks volumes about Schumer, Rangel, Markey, others.]
  • Household wealth at pre-recession levels; Obama won't note it because his 47% are not participating
  • The president's civil-liberties record questioned: spied on all Americans -- well, any who used the Internet; and all this time folks were concerned about Google tracking ISPs. Cue up Connie Francie
  • FISA: the government's secret court
  • When NSA calls, ATT, Verizon, Sprint, others answer
  • TrainWreck: analysts expect "glitches" in health-care exchanges
  • Op-Ed: IRS political timeline -- and the president's speeches; mainstream media fell for it, hook, line, and sinker
