Ah, the product of a Harvard Business School education – doesn’t know the difference between a bailout and a buyout. Or isn’t embarrassed to act that way.

One Company, One Nation under Glod. That’s where we’re headed. Obama will get the blame though.

yeah…and bear stearns wasn’t a bailout either….and when the FDIC goes under i’m sure it won’t be a bailout either. start savin your dollars to literally burn because it will be cheaper to do than buying wood.

twist - An old friend of you and Doom is on the case (and quoting Bert Ely to boot). She doesn't sound amused. "Taxpayers on hook for mortgage rescue", by Rachel Beck, Associated Press, July 15, 2008.

We knew it could happen, even though they said it wouldn't. The government is using our money again to haul private companies' hindquarters out of the fire — this time it's troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

It's a plan with holes in it.

It's a plan that comes too late.

It's a plan that still insulates those leading those same poorly managed companies.

Yet American taxpayers are on the hook for a mess that could undermine confidence in our financial system, depress the value of our currency and lead to higher inflation.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it’s a duck.

Igor says: untrue.
