But you don’t understand how the “Mainstream” works kathyinstlouis. If you’re going to be “balanced” you’re going to have to show how Joe Biden is just and stupid and clueless as Caribou Barbie. As that’s simply not possible the “Mainstream” reverts to. . .silence.

Is this not the saddest indictment of John McCain’s judgement of all? The press has to censor their opinions of his running mate so that they don’t appear to be piling on. That the man chose someone so incredibly ill-equipped and uninformed that the press must cover for her is, indeed, a sad thing. That John McCain is such a thickhead that he would have chosen this woman without finding out if she was up to the job is a disgrace.

To the press: Stop covering for her. You are acting as enablers for a very angry, jerky man who made an awful decision. Grow a pair and tell the American people just what a bad choice this was.

Supposedly all these brave new representatives were merely listening to their constituents who don’t want the Wall Street Bailout. Wait until those folks lose their 401k, retirement funds, can’t get their kids college loans, and/or lose a home over this shakeout. Do you think that any of those people who lost money in all this will remember that they thought the bailout was a bad idea? They will blame the House Republicans for their woes. What a bunch of losers.

No one wants to do this bailout of a bunch of Wall Street thieves, but if the entire world has an economic collapse, it will seem as if the bailout was a good idea that should have been tried. I don’t know a lot, but I truly believe that old say, ”Success has a thousand fathers, failure is an orphan.”….or something close to that.

McCain “pre-recorded” speech congratulating himself for passage of the bailout bill.

The question is what will they do after McCain loses?

The demagogues that be will set to work stoking the flames of resentment to insure that they DO turn out in 2012.

Boehner was blaming the fact that Republicans didn’t vote for it on Pelosi’s speech.

Wasn’t that a lovely whine?

Especially after Boner, hissownself, in between tears, said in *his* speech that this vote would separate the men from the boys, and the girls from the women.

Guess he was right, huh?

I mean, who could have anticipated that mean ole Nancy would give a speech that hurt da widdle feelings of those Repub “men” and “women”?

Friends don’t let friends govern while drunk.

Fear not! St. McCain is going to cut taxes for himself and his cronies!
That always fixes the economy, right? Oh and he promises to control spending. Stop right there. I know that you’re thinking that Republics always promise to do that but never actually do that. Well, McCain’s differ….did you know he was a POW? Really, he was!
