The GOP tacticians think that the best course of action is whatever opposes President Obama. On time budget? Block. Terrorism insurance? Block, pass an alternative version that is laden with off-topic items, but claim Democrats didn’t pass (though the Senate passed clean version back in July).

Move on immigration?

Complain about normalizing relations with a country, Cuba, whose human rights are abhorrent but are actually better than those GOPers who say that waterboarding isn’t torture and that the CIA was correct to torture terrorists for no actionable intel.

On and on it goes. It’s all situational politics and not principled positions on anything.

Had to pop back in for a quick article drop, since it’s something of a flying pig moment:

CEO gives back bonus, says he doesn’t deserve it

Well, here’s something you don’t see too often. Or maybe never…

Rick Holley is CEO of Plum Creek Timber Co. PCL 0.46% , a Seattle-based real estate investment trust that owns and manages around 6.8 million acres of timberland in 19 states. Today Holley disclosed, via a regulatory filing, that he has returned 44,445 restricted stock units back to the company because “he does not believe that he should receive such an award unless Plum Creek’s stockholders see an increase in their investment return.”

At today’s opening price of $41.80 per share, Holley’s giveback would work out to more than $1.85 million.

SNIP

Holley tells Fortune that the board was “surprised” when he informed them of his decision. “I told them I wasn’t asking for their approval. They had given these to me and I appreciated their confidence in me, but I didn’t feel comfortable taking them… This has been a year where total shareholder returns are down 10% or more. It just wasn’t the right thing to do.”

Strange indeed, but honorable. BBL for real.

I think it’s admirable. You got too many executives who are happy to take the bonus and run with it without too much afterthought. I think it’s nice to see a person in corporate America look at the big picture rather than his own wallet.

Even the North Koreans know that the Russians are virtually bankrupt. If that’s Putin’s attempt to counter the US rapproachment with Cuba, that’s a pretty lame one. In fact, that’s a step back for North Korea whose primary back is China.

Cuba rapproachment could lead to further thaw in relations between US and, say, Ecuador and more importantly, Venezuela. That’s right. If Venezuela improves relations with the US, then Russia is even more isolated in energy policy.

Trump would never go for the kind of vetting that shows that he’s anything but self-made. He got his money from his dad’s real estate empire.
