Zings Of The Day, August 10, 2011

The Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:
DIS
)
said yesterday
that net income rose 11 percent with help from ESPN, its theme parks and consumer products businesses. Shares are down 8% today. I guess it's a little smaller world after all. Harry Reid (D-NV)
named three Democratic senators
to the "super committee" in order to find at least $1.2 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade. How is this even legal? Oh right, it's not. But then again, neither is online gambling and that's less harmful then Congress. Capital One Financial Corp. (NYSE:
COF
) said it would
buy the U.S. credit-card business
of HSBC (NYSE:
HBC
) for about $2.6 billion. What's in your wallet?
