Sorry, but John McCain is blowing his opening statement.  Barack Obama gave him an open barn door on the issue of "failed policies of the last eight years".  Barack Obama's good friends Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Jim Johnson, and Franklin Raines are directly at the genesis of this crisis. ...

Hank Paulson is desperate.  Since the Republicans in Congress have decided that it is better to do the right thing rather than anything, Hank Paulson was reportedly compelled to drop down to one knee before Nancy Pelosi to beg for her help in pushing the Bailout Bullshit through Congress.  Bill Medley must be shaking his head.

Washington Mutual -- the bank famous for making fun of "stuffy old banks" -- has been taken over by the Office of Thrift Supervision and its assets sold to a stuffy old bank -- JPMorgan. You have to love the irony.  Washington Mutual was one of the biggest no-doc/interest only/subprime loan wh...

Fat Jack Murtha, D-Johnstown, PA  is getting sued.  The Congressman -- a Marine turned ratfucking bastard and unindicted co-conspirator in ABSCAM -- is being sued by one of the "Haditha" Marines he accused of "cold blooded murder".  Without evidence, without trial, without jury, Fat Jack Murtha abandoned his fellow Marines, and turned his back on Semper Fidelis. What is latin for "Always a Cocksucker"?

I thought the Palin pick was brilliant.  But the move to "suspend campaigning" in order to debate one bad idea after another is downright stupid.  Use the bully pulpit of the campaign to push for the right kind of approach.  Use the bully pulpit to display your leadership, your unders...

Joe Biden is an asshat. “When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened,” Sloe Joe Biden told CBS News. Hey Joe, better brush up on your history. Franklin Delano Roosev...

The government bailout plan -- which I have now decided is a VERY BAD idea (see below for more details) -- like any government "plan", needs a witty and catchy acronym.  Prompted by a post at National Review Online's The Corner I would like to suggest "Secured Housing Investment Trust", or S.H.I.T. Why?  Because this a single big bad of manure that is being foisted on the American people.

One of the most magnanimous media distortions this campaign season has been their complicity in positioning Hair Plugs Biden as a "lunch bucket" "man of the people" Democrat.  Nothing could be further from the truth, and Michael Medved does a great job of destroying that bull-dookey.

Jihad Joe Albero, Southwest Delaware's most notorious cyberterrorist and perjurer, can't count, can't confirm, and can't research.

The news on the buyouts gets worse as time goes on.  Hank Paulson is channeling John Maynard Keynes.  Now, he not only wants to bail out irresponsible bankers here in the United States, but word is out on the street that he wants the authority to bail out foreign bankers, too. What in the...
