QUOTABLE QUOTE (gotta love this man!)
In his speech to John Podesta's Center for American Progress, former Sen. John Edwards departed from his prepared text to say:

"I might have missed something, but I don't think the President ever talked about putting a cap on the salaries of the CEOs of Halliburton and the other companies. . . who are getting all of these contracts."
