Multiple Clusterfuck Pile Up at Highway Interchange

How much more completely awesome can a Federal Reserve Chairman be?

Learn how to merge, asshole!

When you Google the words "fire Bernanke" you get a boatload Hummerload of hits.  It would appear that everyone running for the GOP nomination has said in their speeches that if elected, they would hook up a U-Haul behind Ben's Hummer and send him back to Princeton.  Ron Paul is the exception - he says don't fire Bernanke, fire the Fed.

It's a Freedom of Speech Issue..... Man......

What? I'm covered....

Bazooka's, in downtown Kansas City, offers videos of its nude and seminude dancers next to the stage while a dancer performs live with her intimate areas covered, as the law requires, The Kansas City Star reported Thursday.

"Bazooka's" What an awesome name for strip joint...

How Fraud Fuels Inflation from Charles Hugh Smith

Like the line on this blog says - I'm not a writer.  I pretend to be one.  Charles Hugh Smith is in fact the real deal.

Give 'em hell Chuck!  You 'da man!

I read his blog daily.  In my opinion, he is truly gifted plus seems like a pretty cool dude.  Back in the day, he'd probably be one of the guys I'd smoke some weed with and bullshit about the world's problems.

Of Two Minds - Charles Hugh Smith  I pity the fool who doesn't read Chuck... now get the fuck over there and get educated!

WMC Mortgage Idiot Thread

Some dipshit with his/her head in the sand defending WMC mortgage practices.

To use a line from Jaws - "You're not going to believe there's a maneater out there until it swims up and bites you in the ass".

"No no Im not talking about what the articles say Im talking about what you are saying. You are making some big accusations, that you have first hand knowledge of fraud and antics of a frat house mentality at WMC. I was in effect calling your bluff and you failed. Either provide the info or I suggest you retract the statement.

I worked for WMC I know many there that were high up. If I was one you were calling a fraud (target of your post) etc you would be getting a lot of steam from me right now.
Prove what you are saying outside of what you read from LA Times or some other third party source or retract the statement."

Hide and watch what gets uncovered dumb ass and while you're at it - go fuck yourself.

Bankers Are No Good at "No Snitching" - It'll Be Fun Watching 'Em Rat Each Other Out

...and then.... one time at band camp.....

In a rare criminal prosecution to emerge from the financial crisis, two former Credit Suisse traders admitted on Wednesday to conspiring to manipulate the value of about $3 billion in subprime mortgage-backed securities in order to hide losses as the U.S. real estate market began to collapse in 2007.

They must have had some iron clad evidence for them to roll so quickly.

Robert Khuzami, head of the SEC's enforcement division, said in a statement that "the senior bankers falsely and selfishly inflated the value of more than $3 billion in asset-backed securities in order to protect their bonuses and, in one case, protect a highly coveted promotion."

Higgs, who apologized for his conduct, said in court that his boss and others had known about the manipulation and assisted in it. He looked dejected and spoke quietly in describing his conduct to U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan.

Sing for me bitch!  Sing like a canary!

The Higher Education Tuition Gambit Crack Up Boom

Missouri is fast reaching the point where many students from low- and moderate-income families will be priced out of a college education, presidents of public universities told a House committee this morning.

 

Reaching terminal velocity on those tuition rate increases....

 

 

 

 

Ron Paul - More of a Movement and Philosophy than a Candidate

Good luck and Godspeed, Ron Paul

So I go to drop off the Smug Bastard's 2011 tax documents at my trusty accountant's office to get the IRS their fair share of my loot and what do I spy with my little eye parked in the lot????  A pick 'em up truck with an "End the Fed" bumper sticker.  Turns out the truck is owned by one of the young fellows working there... go figure.

“What am I doing in Maine? Why am I not in Florida? I came to get delegates, that’s what we’re doing here,” said Mr. Paul. “[A]fter spending two days plus up in Maine, I was very encouraged. The turnouts were fantastic. Usually overflow crowds. Tremendous enthusiasm. The other candidates aren’t paying much attention. The interest was phenomenal.”

Give 'em hell, Ron.
