My Aunt Raymonde. May she Rest in Peace

I kind of liked the way we bailed out AIG again.

 

[catocom]

I don't think copperfield coulda made that money disappear any faster.

 

[catocom]

well, just saw on cnn...
most jobs seem to be consulting and such.
No manufacturing that i heard.

 

[chcr]

What bugs me is that the government (last administration) tried a bailout which failed miserably. Now the new guys come along and do the same effing thing and expect it to work because they're what?

Different people?
Newly elected?
Their hearts are pure?

It would be comical if it wasn't costing me so much money.

 

[catocom]
