Brilliant.

[Lo]

Hah!

My anarchist mom wanted to make a "where's my bailout?" T-shirt, but decided against it when her friends seemed too honestly sympathetic with a "bailouts for everybody" plan.

I know exactly where my bailout is.

It's tied up in the American Structured Securities Rescue Act for a Prudent Economy.

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

[Dello]

If I don't get a bailout, I can't feed my kids. Won't you please think of the children?

For a second there I thought some really awesome congressman might have came up with an awesome amendment to that bill.

Damn. When I ran out of money to finish fixing my fixer-upper that I got with a no-doc mortgage, I sold it. Managed to pay off my mortgages but was left with some hefty credit card debt, which I took a second job to pay off.

That was two years ago. I have $3000 left of that credit card debt. Aren't I at least deserving of a teeny weeny bailout? Or even if I'm not deserving, won't someone help me anyway?

Hell no dude, you're small enough to fail.

I'm telling you I worked my ass off on that house. It was in such bad shape, rehabbing it was a public works project.

Read reason's Q&A: Whom Will You Vote For? Many Libertarians opted to spank the Republicans good.

You'll enjoy this then ...

Qaeda wants Republicans, Bush "humiliated": Web video
Thu Oct 30, 2008 6:15pm EDT

DUBAI (Reuters) - An al Qaeda leader has called for President George W. Bush and the Republicans to be "humiliated," without endorsing a party in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, according to an Internet video posting.

"O God, humiliate Bush and his party, O Lord of the Worlds, degrade and defy him," Abu Yahya al-Libi said at the end of sermon marking the Muslim feast of Eid al-Fitr, in a video posted on the Internet. ...

Well, there you have it.

Osama is NOT endorsing Obama for president.

*wink, nod*

It's an old political trick. If anything positive happens anywhere in the world, take credit for it. If anyone gets spanked over something, position yourself in such a way that it looks like you had a hand in their admonishment.

IT looks like Al Qaeda are picking up tricks from Lyndon LaRouche

So sheer stupidity is to blame for this current crisis? I don't know.. This video makes you guys sound like dicks. It is funny, though.
