Check out this hilarious (and sad but true) video that Reason magazine came up with to help explain the new automobile warranty system now that it’s being run by the government. You can expect this same brilliant efficiency to be applied to the healthcare system once the government takes it over, too. Yes, you can.
Time for a little review on AIG. First, let’s recall that we as taxpayers have a $170 billion dollar investment in AIG, which amounts to an 80% ownership of the company. Of course, in real life, you and I don’t have any say in how AIG is run. We didn’t even get asked if we [...]
Meet my new favorite congressman, Thaddeus McCotter, representing the 11th district in Michigan. He had a particularly brilliant 2 minutes on the House floor the other day in response to the “outrage” on display over the AIG bonus money fiasco. Love this guy. Here is his YouTube page. Also, you can follow him on Twitter [...]
Check out this video compilation showing some news coverage of the growing Tea Party movement. I’m not sure if the messiah can give enough fabulous speeches to quell the rising tide.
Turns out we won’t need the services of the good Dr. Kevorkian for those AIG executives after all. Senator Charles Grassley has retracted his call for them to either apologize or kill themselves. He’s actually after remorse, repentance, and contrition. Rest in peace, Dr. Kevorkian.

Good news, curvy divas! A new study has revealed that when economic times get rough, men are attracted to plumper women than they are when money’s a-flowin. Is it wrong for me to hope for a full-blown depression?
If you find yourself befuddled by terms such as “credit default swaps” and you want to learn more about what caused this economic quagmire in which we find ourselves, watch this video. The Crisis of Credit Visualized from Jonathan Jarvis on Vimeo. Good stuff. Two things I think are really funny about this: (a) the [...]
Okay, these video clips are a little long, but they’re really worth watching if you can spare the time. CNBC’s Rick Santelli had a “Joe the Plumber” moment this week when he indulged in this rant from the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade: To which the White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, responded [...]
