Where are we going? Why are we in this hand basket?

Take a good long look at George W’s business past. Really, take 45 minutes and do some homework for yourself.

Google the Texas Rangers baseball team and Harkin Energy. Google it and read. Do some work for yourself and stop waiting for pundits to tell you how to think. Do the hard work, people!

WAKE UP.

Bottom line: George W. is recidivate in plundering public assets for personal gain. This time personal gain is purely one of hubris: he is most concerned in how he will look in the history books. I hope he will go down like Hoover -- sucking the whole way.

Today George W., who deregulated banking, which allowed this horrendous financially fatal event to happen, now wants us to bail his rich, old white ass out. Again.

He wants the public, Main Street, to bail out Wall Street. He wants the people who make less than 250 thousand dollars a year to bail out the Wall Street people who make well over 250 thousand a year, which doesn’t include their bonuses. (Wall Street bonuses are about 3 or 5 times what you make in a year. Really.)

We have to bail them out or we’re all screwed.

We are “Main Street.” They are “Wall Street”. And we have to bail them out to save ourselves.

So, if we are “Regular” Americans on Main Street, who are the “Non-Regular” people on Wall Street?

Are Wall Street people Super-Americans? Better Americans? I’ll tell you who they are. They’re Rich Protected Americans.

They’re the people George W Bush used to cater to.

But now, his Republican cronies are not standing for it anymore. They’re super-pissed, because now they’re dealing with the same idiot the rest of us have been dealing with for the past eight years. He’s now dragged them into the same hole he’s dragged us into. And they don't like the hole! Ohhh, too bad!

Hi! Welcome to the hole we’ve been telling you about for the past eight years! Make yourself comfortable. We’re ready to eat your eyes.

But those rich House Republicans aren’t accustomed to things not going their way. They’re not ready to cut the lines on golden parachutes for Wall Street CEOs and CFOs. They’re not ready to say the people we’re bailing out have to pay us back, because they still have to cater to the rich.

They want US to continue to protect the Rich People on Wall Street who are responsible for this.

But it doesn’t matter.

The common folk will have to bail them out anyway.

Because we always do. Because we are the rank and file regular Americans. And the mistakes of the “Ruling Party” are always taken out on the “Regular” people.

Until the regular people revolt.

Are you ready?

Fundamental Thanks!

Wow, I'm so thankful for our brilliant country. I have so many people to thank!

I’d like to start by thanking George W. Bush for doing the “Fundamentally Republican” thing and making government smaller by taking the horrendous duty of “regulating” banks off the government’s back and allowing banks to regulate themselves. That’s working out really, really well! I’ve lost tens of thousands of dollars! Thank you Republicans! You’re the best.

I’d also like to thank John “Chipmunk Gland” McCain for assuring us that our banking system is “fundamentally” sound. If fundamentally sound means printing more money without any actual value behind it -– he’s right!!! Keep up the good work!

And I’d also like to thank the Christian fundamentalists for being so fundamentally sure that the big, scary, “elite and intelligent” Democrats are going to ruin the country. I have to agree, they sure wouldn’t do as well at driving us into the gutter as the “Fundamentally Correct” Republicans are doing! Great job, Jesus Freaks! Keep up the good work. Keep looking for “enemies” that are “fundamentally” against you. Keep up your witch hunt until we’re all broke and as frightened and panic-stricken as you are. Oh boy, if driving us all to crazed desperation doesn’t turn us all Christian, what will?!

Good work America! Good work!
