Get Your Money Out Now!!!

[Justin]

Buffet evidently invested $3 billion in GE today. He's also putting money into Goldman Sachs. Which is interesting, to say the least.

The crisis will be snowballing sooner if the Congress doesn't rape us.

The "bailout" plan, which was 3 pages and ballooned to 250 by the House, is now 451 pages. There is pork for wool research, NASCAR tracks, Puerto Rican rum, wooden arrow shafts used in children's toys, etc. The Senate passed the porked up version tonight.


The government obviously can't take this seriously so they should just stay out of it. They just can't help themselves with the idea of boatloads of money filling the trough to only disappear without accountability.
