Bailout or not, it's virtually no choice at all. The working and middle classes are getting hosed whether it's through increased taxes with fewer services for generations to come in the case of a bailout or another depression if there isn't. Make no mistake, the architects who got fabulously rich off the swindle and the politicians that enabled it are sitting pretty either way.

I think this is what happens when the human body is subjected to the denim "icing" process.

How come I always have to log in twice?

I think it has more to do with this:

Ads in threads:

Great Caesar's ghost, I do not dare to ask! You're a moron. Which "strong man" are you sizing for a crown and scepter?

No riots yet (from left or right).

Great Caesar's ghost, I do not dare to ask!

The way things are going, pretty soon they're going to be adding some zeros to the end of everything. It'll cost $1000 for a Baby Loaf of cheddar.

The Penny?! Why do we need to redesign the nation's coinage and currency every year? American currency didn't change for the first thirty years of my life, now I don't know what a fucking nickle looks like this week! National Erectile Disfunction? Too many talentless art-school graduates? Make up your fucking mind already; it's currency for crying out loud, it doesn't matter what it looks like!

"From zis angle, your legs look like two leetle vienerschnizels nestled togezer."

"What a pleasure it is to meet you Mr. Caray. I've always loved your Cubs broadcasts and when you sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the 7th inning stretch!"

"Why are the flowers lit better than I am?"

In a voice that makes you want to shove pencils into your ears and break them off: "Charlie...Charlie!...Charlie...Charlie, Charlie...Charlie."

"I am sending you this floating bouquet of flowers with my powers of mental telepathy."

Besides the relative lack of TVs in 1929 Franklin Roosevelt wasn't even President! The McCain Campaign won't even allow the media near Palin, much less get an interview for fear they might ask her a question!

It's nearly unfathomable how many Americans in positions of power have been so wrong these past couple decades. No wonder people turn towards conspiracy in order to make sense of it. "They're fucking up so epically, they must be doing it on purpose."

So if we didn't bail out the billionaires, how would they continue to provide the charitable contributions upon which our social safety net is supposed to rely?

Here's one of my favorites from Thomas Friedman when he was cheerleading for an American Empire and shoving deregulatory schemes down Third World throats in an equally grandiloquent turd:

Let's hope it succeeds.

He's off to a great start: Tony Rezco William Ayers ACORN I can hardly believe that given the events of the last week and the decades of fallout we're likely shoulder in the aftermath, that this moronic character assassination crap is what you choose to hammer on. Astonishingly desperate.

Not since the Gang of Five stopped posting here last week.

"Dabgummit, I don't gib a damn whut the French want!"

I totally should have kept driving. He was so frantic though, i thought maybe he was in trouble. He had no car or anything and it looked like he was trying to just get ANYONE's attention. In that case, stopping would seem a good way to get shot.

Not that most of us will have the energy to power something so trivial as a TV set, that is.
