Barack Obama ate a hamburger… Sarah Palin got a gun… torture, they’re still going on about that… Sean Hannity is insane… what else today? Oh right, the thing, the thing where goods and services are bought and sold and jobs and money and stuff! Ben Bernanke said optimistic things about it today, albeit with a tragically ambiguous, stinging back: “Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said today that the nation’s rate of economic contraction may be slowing and that he expects growth to resume later this year, but he also suggested that the economy could perform well below its potential for years to come.” What is this nonsense about the American economy having “potential”? Like building GREEN CARS and shit? [Washington Post]
Green cars, red cars, white cars: they’re all the same - foreign.
Who the hell wants a GREEN CAR anyway? Almost everyone you see on the road is silver or black. What the fuck are these guys thinking about here?
The economy can produce baseball hits, runs, errors. Maybe cards. Balls are made in Haiti or somewhere, I believe.
I’m STILL hungry. Fuck cars.
I replaced “economy” with “penis” because I’m bored at work and running the clock out. To wit:
“Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said today that the nation’s rate of (penis) contraction may be slowing and that he expects growth to resume later this year, but he also suggested that the (penis) could perform well below its potential for years to come.”
…that’s what she said.
I have a green car. The pollen doesn’t show.
The velocity of our decline into total insolvency is slowing slightly. Hooray!
Ben sure puts the stag in stagnation
Hedley Lamar: I have a green car - it’s a total pussy-magnet….
Bearbloke: Wow. Trade ya.
liquiddaddy: This has limitless possiblities:
Four score and seven years ago, our forefathers brought forth on this continent a new penis….
I’m leaving now in my NOT green car to go and drink quatro de cinco Mojitos.
Hasta, beetches!
This dude can’t predict yesterday’s weather. Why is he still here?
So we’re arrogant, rich (compared to the rest of the world, whom we’ve impoverished), mean and not living up to our potential. America is back!
Meanwhile, the Nationals and the Astros are tied at 10 in the eleventh inning, and in a rain delay. What, this isn’t a baseball thread? Oh yeah, the munnies. Is this Bernanke at today’s day game?
Nah, the big news today is Miss “opposite marriage makes Baby Jesus cry” California’s T&A shots.
Hedley Lamar: Ok, maybe I’ll trade ya - here’s mine, whaddya you got?
Bearbloke: That is a beary green car.
Bearbloke: Never mind…. I got my own pussy magnet. http://www.myspace.com/lucky_labes
stew: Comeuppence is a bitch.
Hedley Lamar: My 1978 Vega was Soylent Green.
Back when I had a car, it was green. But it was had a massive engine for its size and I drove the hell out of it. Man, those were good days. But that was 2 years out of the last 12 years. So I figure if I get a Hummer for about a month, I can survive without a car for a year right? (or are Hummers now illegally out of business?)
That photo is actually Mark Levin at a Phillies game.
