Someone sent me an email with a photo of a protestor's sign on Wall Street. It said "Jump, you Fuckers, JUMP."

Hope the guy is still out there with his sign. :grr:

2. Oh, yes
I heard Texas puke rep Culberson tell our right-wing "news" station that in an interview in about 2004. "The country is broke," I believe were his words.

Did they throw him a hardball on that one? Why, no, they didn't. Clear Channel owns them.

4. Actually we have been in the hole at least since the Viet Nam
War. That is why the oil producers put us on notice that they would set oil prices. The money we were paying for oil didn't buy them what they felt they should get for a non-renewable resource.

Dick Cheney has more money than Midas. The Bush Klan is rolling in it. The Walton Family rice bowls are overflowing. Cindy McCain's Budweiser distributor is drunk on wealth.
