Mitt Romney Isn’t Telling Us Exactly How He Will Ruin The Housing Sector
Good news, everyone!

[...]

Michele Bachmann Says Comical Thing About Economy
Staunch conservative baby harvester Rep. Michele Bachmann sez: “First we were told that Bear Stearns was too big to fail, then we were told that Freddie/Fannie were too big to fail, then we were told that AIG was too big to fail. What’s next, Starbucks too big to fail?” Ha ha ha, oh heavens, we [...]
