He cried "Wolf" one too many times.


So now we're all going to be eaten by wolves.

1. I was just thinking about that.
The boy that cried wolf.

So when is China foreclosing on America?

6. Yeah, cry wolf
But also, when you dumb down your base systematically, they will inevitably turn and bite you in the ass when you least expect it because they're too stoooopid to know better.

4. How do you know it was the truth?
Can you support that statement or is it just a hunch?

13. I doubt Buffet expected the bill to fail, or he'd have waited.

14. Knowing Buffet, well as well as a nobody can know the man, he didn't care about the bailout
Either way, he got a HUGE bargain. Stocks will rebound with or without the cash giveaway.
