Obama to the big three automakers: “It’s my way or the highway!” GET IT?? By the way, GM chairman Rick Wagoner is being shown “the highway.”

This weekend in rampage shootings: Eight killed in rest home, six die in California townhouse shooting, 19 dead in Pakistan police school, and a man beheads his five-year-old sister in front of a cop. (Not an actual shooting, probably because he didn’t have a gun.)
