Stampede of the Sheople

If anyone thinks that this latest surge in world wide stock markets is the signal that the all is now well in our financial markets...then I have a brand-spanking new 223 million dollar bridge in this place called Alaska to sell you for pennies on the dollar...

Seriously, the fat cat bankers on Wall Street are heartened that the government that is using borrowed, leveraged money faster than they are is going to ride in to a socialist-style rescue by buying up all of their dumb-assed debt decisions is smoking more weed than Bill Maher.

Oh, have no doubt,the Bush Administration has no fucking problem spending your grandchildren's future taxes to save the hides of a few stupid multi-millionaires now, and they won't even be so rude as to even suggest that those overpaid executives have to repay all of those inflated stock options or those bonuses that those pigfuckers cashed in over the last couple of years when things were going well...because...that just isn't done in a capitalist system...

No, instead, let the bastards keep all of that ill-gotten wealth (that actually survived their own stupidity), but put the American taxpayer (or more accurately the Chinese and Russian dipshits who keep buying our IOU's) on the hook for rescuing those morons from themselves.

In another example of sheer sheopledom, take a quick look at the McCain pick for the VP slot on his ticket. The man had to look far and wide to find someone so unqualified that he couldn't find that person in the lower 48 states. I will admit that there simply aren't very many people who combine all of the worst traits of Bush and Cheney into one neat little package. And for a bonus, he got tits too!

Not only did he get a anti-choice, God-mongering, hunter to join his ticket, he gets to truck out a hot soon-to-be grandma young enough to be his daughter. Maybe he has dreams of getting a hummer in the White House or in Cheney's famous 'undisclosed location', but if he does, the old goober might need to himself fixed, that gal of his is still fertile enough to crank out their very own McPalin...

Someone please tell me that the real fucking people in this country will raise their heads from the stampeding flocks of Sheople and will actually vote for a candidate who represents hope and hard work, intelligence and integrity?

Please tell me that someone will step forward and let the criminals on Wall Street be accountable for their crimes and their stupidity? Make any executive of a failing financial company give back all of their earnings and options and bonuses before any bailout is even considered...let them actually pay for their greed and their decisions.

We may yet actually choose a real president this election cycle...but I have some serious fucking doubts that the fucking coyotes will actually guard the hen house...This market meltdown is only just beginning...these bailouts are only going to prolong the pain and make the final fall that much harder.
