- When McCain said he was dropping out of the race to fix the economy, he was really having a filthy swingers orgy, in public, with Joe and Hadassah. [Ben Smith]
- Simulate the retarded, child-like speech patterns of national idiot Sarah Palin, with this fun word-generating internet machine! [Andrew Sullivan]
- Bill Kristol wants McCain to suspend his campaign once more, to go fix the economy all over again. [Weekly Standard]
- Pun abuser Maureen Dowd is BANNED from McCain’s Straight Talk Air. [Howard Kurtz]
- You know what’s also on the verge of collapse? Pakistan. Pakistan has become too big and too expensive for the taxpayers. [Matthew Yglesias]
- Maybe instead of “bailout” this thing should have been called “Economic Stability Plan” or “Hey Let’s Nuke Iran” and then more Republicans would have gotten behind it. [Politico]
That Fareed guy on CNN also says it’s time for Palin to return to guarding the Alaskan coastline…
I agree with the last point made. This is not a financial crisis that can’t be fixed by a good war, preferably a world war. We’ve done it once before, we can do it again!
Death to the infidel Shah! no wait, we..they..got him already….
Great, another $700b to bail out Pakistan? Thanks Wall Street.
National Idiot? So that’s what she’s running for.
She wins by a landslide.
Henry Paulson in press conference now, wearing silver rhinestone cape and giant jewel on his forehead.
Last week, I said, “Jesus, all they have to do for this week’s SNL skit is just have Tina Fey basically repeat Sarah Palin’s answers verbatim.”
And what do you think they did? Lorne, I’ll expect my check next week.
I have never agreed with Kristol on anything, but in this case I agree that McCain should once again suspend his campaign to help save the economy. Kristol and I only disagree on the details. For instance, under my scheme, McCain would suspend his campaign until 2016 to allow Barack Obama to become president and do what is necessary to get the country back on track. In 2016 McCain can resume his campaign and lose to Harold Ford (who will himself edge out Hillary “18 million” Clinton for the Democratic nomination).
nurple: So now Haji from Johnny Quest is running Treasury?
stew: Fareed Hates her. See this article he wrote if you’re interested:

Note: he is one of those swarthy Muslims with a Ph.D., so it’s no surprise that he loathes Bible Spice
Q: What is the role of the US in Iraq and Afghanistan?
“Afghanistan will lead to war and it doesn’t have to lead, as I said, to a Cold War, but economic sanctions, diplomatic pressure, again, counting on our allies to help us do that in this nation at this time. It is for no more politics as usual, that embracing of the Congress today, they know that something is broken and John McCain has a great plan to get caught up this time. People are getting sick and tired of politics as usual and somebody’s big, fat resume maybe that shows decades and decades in that Washington establishment, where, yes, they’ve had opportunity to deal with this.”
AAAAAAAWESOME!
Serolf Divad: Hear, hear.
Serolf Divad: By 2016 Walnuts will be eating apple sauce through a straw & trying to remember why his caretaker reminds him of a trollopy c*nt.
Is anyone else thinking of that scene in “Terminator” where the little post-apocalypse children were watching TV, or what was actually just a fire inside of a television?
Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi: A plan to ask middle-class Americans and their children and their children’s children to pay for the bloated, overpriced houses, stocks and risky investments of the world wealthiest people, while those same middle-class languish without basic health care and unaffordable education and sky-rocketing housing costs, is so outrageous, that it just.might.work….
Texan Bulldoggette:
And this is different from today… how exactly?
I love this from Bill Kristol’s blog, quoting the McCain campaign:
“Barack Obama failed to lead, phoned it in, attacked John McCain, and refused to even say if he supported the final bill.
“Just before the vote, when the outcome was still in doubt, Speaker Pelosi gave a strongly worded partisan speech and poisoned the outcome.
“This bill failed because Barack Obama and the Democrats put politics ahead of country.” –McCain-Palin senior policy adviser Doug Holtz-Eakin
So it’s the Democrats’ fault that the 67% of House Republicans voted against the bill? If Barack and Nancy had only endorsed it more strongly, then more Democrats would have voted for it so that then the Republicans could have blamed them for whatever went wrong afterward? This isn’t spin, it’s contortion.
Did anyone else get hot and bothered by Katie Couric: “Go ahead, David, spin me!” ?
Sure, bring Hadassah into this just before the Jewish holidays - how many more days then until Bubba starts campaigning?
The country is facing too much crisis. Let’s call off the election and torture some Gitmo prisoners until they admit doing whatever it was that was done.
Odd, ain’t it, that 67 percent of House Republicans are attacking Wall Street as effectively as some terrorists did with airplanes?
Serolf Divad: Well, in Walnuts defense I think he can still chew his own food & change his Depends at this point.
The rate Walnuts temper is unleashing though, he’ll have an aneurysm if the black guy beats him & then Cindy can have him committed. If I were Cindy, I’d put Walnuts in one of those homes that are on the local news for a)sexually assaulting the oldsters, b) robbing them and/or 3) beating the crap out of them. Then she can run away with Raoul, the illegal Mexican pool boy.
It takes a real talent like Bill Kristol to be able to masturbate oneself while having both hands and your head up your ass.
Texan Bulldoggette:
Cindy’s been counting on McCain incapacitating himself. That way she can get her hands on all his money. She only married him for his money, you see.
…or wait, was that a different couple.
Serolf Divad: Yeah, I don’t know what Cindy ever saw in him. According to biographies, he’s always been a dick. Now he’s just an old, crotchety dick. I’d have unloaded him years ago.
I wonder if the taxpayers will also be required to purchase their own rape kits after this.
Pakistan is on the verge of collapse?? Somebody tell Obambi. Now would be a good time for him to trot out his famous “nuanced” foreign “policy” (heavily disguised as I donb’t know what the shit I am talking about but I’ll bomb them anyway just to make sure), and bomb the shit out of them. Maybe he’ll hit something other than a pharmaseutical factory.
Obamanot:
Sigh…. if only Obama could see Russia from his window.
Serolf Divad: cryonics, anyone. We could guarantee a lifetime supply of liquid nitrogen to keep McCaint on indefinite suspended campaignation…or until he dies. Until he dies? Until he dies.
If Dowd is banned from McCain’s plane, how are her and Palin going to make nice and paint each other’s toes?
