“As long as the Democrats are in office I am very flexible and will allow them any leeway at all. I don't want results just a Democrat in office. Please Mr. Congressman support bank regulation. You didn't know it was needed until I called right Mr. Congressman?

Congressman to his personal secretary; " Miss Smith did you know the banks need regulation? I just got a call from a constituent. Thank God! Who knew???"”

“The only way the banks make money is by lending? Ever hear of short selling the dollar? Credit card fees? NSF fees? The banks are making huge profits this year. But it's not by lending.”

“Alan will recommend a negative number interest rate. The Fed can't help unemployment. Thanks for that newsflash Alan. This is what passes for erudition and financial genius in our bizzaro financial world.”

“Please bankers pretty please. I didn't run to empty the Treasury out for you but I did it anyways. Now please let me regulate you please. This Obama is really playing a very dangerous game. He says one thing yet always seems to be doing the other. Hey Barack how's about stopping the destruction of the dollar by your buds in the banks? The deferance he shows these irresponsible and immoral bloodsuckers is almost enough to make one retch. He acts as if he needs permission from the banks to make any sort of a move. Not a good sign at all. We're going to get some halfway watered down measures that will do NOTHING. This is developing into a pattern.”

“Lol I thought maybe he was having a rash in his drawers!

Glenn is the phoniest carnival barker on Fox. He manages to one-up O'Reilly which is not an easy thing to do. Somebody has to pick the bones of their demographic.

One of the gold ads I saw made me retch violently. It had the wax moustached used car salesman pawn guy hovering over an old Granny who was cashing in all of her heirloom gold. They actually had her reciting where she got the ring or earring and how precious they are to her. Then the broker tells her all her problems are over (for this week anyway) he's going to give her a whole $400 cash!!!

Glenn's show has two or three different gold commercials. G. Gordon is there of course. I'm not sure why Ollie North isn't on hand.

Beck's having a wonderful Christmas except for how worried he is over Marxism and (gasp!) the government actually using tax money to help America and Americans (Oh No!).

It's communism when you use tax money that way. It can only go for war or highways. That's all we need war and highways. Glenn actually said this to BaBa Wa Wa the other night. And he was serious too! My God he's brilliant!”

“back at ya :) Nice logo or avatar”

“Dolboeb,

Very thoughtful response. Keep the faith. There's nothing wrong with ultimately wanting what's best for our country. I don't personally believe that people are more interested in Tiger Woods. My opinion is that the media covers these stories out of any kind of proportion in an effort to distract the masses from the corruption and criminality of our leaders. They desperately want you to just go to work, shut up, and pay your taxes of course. It's an opiate. Most people naturally avoid bad news or thinking about what a horrible mess these devils put us in. Myself I don't really thin Palin would be more than a tick or to two different than any other President. She isn't really radical at all. Just ignorant.”

“TLV,

Where did I suggest condeming muslims? Please learn to read. Because he was born and raised here is not relevant at all. I do agree the muslim fanatic as a rule has severe mental health issues. So what of it? Why wasn't he stopped TLV? Who's protecting us here in America? Answer: Nobody. Certainly not Obama. His lack of concern is glaring. He can't seem to stop himself from taking one self-congratulatory star turn after the other.”

“Dear paulita,

Right. You couldn't comment on my point I see. Weak.”

“Great comment my thoughts exactly. This way they can do all kinds of dirty dealing to artificially inflate the stock price, cash in, and then let the bottom fall out again. Boom! Bust.”

“AA,

It gets really tiresome after a while. Did you ever notice? America hasn't had a positive outcome in anything for decades. They sold out our country just to raise funds to run for their next election. They couldn't care less. All you do is appear to "care" and wring your hands and speechify. At the end of the day they have either made things much worse or done nothing. Thanks for your reply. Happy Holidays!!”

“Dear Barack,

If it was really a "just" war in Afghanistan you wouldn't have to go around all the time telling everybody about how "just" it is. And it isn't a war anyways. You should stop refering to it as such. Your nations Oil companies have to have troops over there in the Middle East to protect and insure the free flow of the black gold. That's All. You really need to stop using these convenient lies to sell the immoral bombings, invasions, takeovers of governments & occupations.

I'd like to hear some concern from Mr Obama about how it is that a muslim fanatic went on a shooting rampage at Ft Hood Tx when loads of actionable (Obama's term) intelligence had been compiled and sifted through? You don't care about Americans at all. You just want to reign supreme in glory and go around accepting awards and flashing that toothy grin.”

“Great object lesson on government in America in the 21st century. It's a pantomime. The polarization and gridlock are manufactured. It's just a soap opera. All they really want to do is have it so everybody has to buy healthcare and the rest are covered by taxpayer dollars. It's just another boon to insurance companies. Nothing more. But gee they really tried. Didn't they?

Stop believing in this government. They do this to us because we let them. They use the same tactics and strategies over and over. You can predict these outcomes very easily. The day Obama said a single payer system was off the table (the first day by the way) I knew the fix was in and we were going to be treated to one big, long, drawn out farce.

As Ian Hunter once wrote "We never failed to fail". That's a perfect motto for our corrupt and wholly owned Congress and Senate.”

“That's why one system single payer is best.”

“I'll tell ya one thing.

I would believe in what we were doing if we sent a cadre of perhaps 30,000 troops over there and tasked them with one mission. Training and mounting Afghanistan's military and police forces. These forces would be solely responsible for ultimately securing the entire country. And paid by their own government. Keep in mind this is nearly 7 years now with no real progress made at all. Spinning our wheels wasting mammoth amounts of taxpayer dollars. Mission creep is a big understatement.

This action is designed to be the most hit & miss sputtering half-rear ended boondoggle. They tell you straight out "Oh yeah keep in mind this is going to take forever and a day. Don't expect any kind of success anytime soon.". It's a gravy train.

Barak is listening to the generals exactly like Bush did. Aweful.”

“She must be good. Thomas is jealous and vindictive already. He hates women. And women hate him too. Yeah anyone who can raise Clarence Thomas' hackles is alright in my book. He's a horrible justice and so is that other one Scalia. They should both be thrown out on their keisters.”

“rinpochet,

Yeah he probably just lost his membership in the Good Old Boy club. Obama will be asking him why he's undermining his efforts soon.

To tell the truth is verboten in America today. Sad. Thanks for a great comment and Happy Holidays to you and all of the Huffposters!”

“Kill Bill. Sounds like a great title for a movie!”

“Scentedflower,

Yeah it's assault then. But not with a deadly weapon I hope. Here's my point. If you were hit with a tomato and then you went to the police to report it they would laugh at you and tell you sure you can file assault charges but why waste the taxpayers money and time over such a trivial incident? Know what I mean? Thanks for your response.”

“Telemachus,

Can't argue that point.”

“Conyers is a real liberal. Barack? Not so much I'm afraid. He's a follower it turns out. Not a leader. Notice how he "stays out" of policy fights etc.”

“Getting hit by a tomato is assault? Right. It's embarrassing but I don't know about assault.”

“No chancho24,

This is what happens when you continue the same failed, wasteful and impossible strategies.

Bush is long gone my friend. Where's the change?”

“lippp,

Exactly. Iraq is in a state of anarchy.”

“You'll notice how the administration is always mum on these incidents now. Nothing to say. It's like they don't really happen. It's difficult to keep refering to the victory we had there and how great it is now. Since it's a big whopping lie.

I know my next vacation is to exotic Baghdad!!”
