First off the bailout of the auto industry, and the bailout in general. Seriously, why? Now I'm all for people keeping their jobs. I would hate for the auto industry to capsize and 3 million people be left without a job, but the auto companies themselves do not deserve a bailout. Their business model has been atrocious the past 20 years. When they finally changed their model it was too late. Even now I still see these commercials for cars that no one wants to buy or drive. Personally American cars have lost their appeal. And not just for the obvious fuel efficiencies (and don't give me this crap about 30+ mpg rated cars... thats on the highway. People care about city usage and that will drop to like 20 mpg), but also for looks and style. Outside of the Mustang I hate how all these cars look (and I only like the Mustang because its a throwback to the days when American companies were innovative and stylish). They are all either too boxy or too heavy for my tastes. Recently, actually I think today I heard a quote from a New York congressman Gary Ackerman talking to CEOs from the "Big 3". He said (and I paraphrase a bit) he finds it ironic how you all are asking for a bailout when you're taking a private jet to Washington and disembarking with tin cups, It's like going to a soup kitchen and asking for a handout in a tux and top-hat. Seriously, if you give these guys money they are just going to squander it away. Thank you but no thanks, your industry needs new leadership and new vision. Heck I'd be more infavor of bailing out the workers of these aut companies that would be affected by the capsizing of the industry. Sorry but I like my small Japanese car that runs great, gets great gas mileage (28-30 in the city beotches!), and has never had any major problems that I got for a bit more than an American equivalent. As for the bailout, Bernanke and Paulson you are a deutschebags! Whatever happened to the buying up of bad mortgages? You're not doing that anymore? Wasn't that the purpose? Whatever happened to the plan that the people paying for this bailout would get something out of it? I actually liked that part, but that wasn't even a part of the final plan... There's something shady going on there.
Anyways the crap ideads spewing from Bernanke and Paulson's ass mouth sucks and you two should know you've failed Jim Cramer! EPIC FAIL!
Now to the people that need to go the fuck away! Yes I'm talking about you Palin the diva whackjob Governor and you Joe the dumbass plumber. I'm not going to spend too much time with them because I feel like I would lose intelligence. Joe the plumber apparently defended Palin in some school journal or something saying stuff like "[The McCain campaign] is trying to throw Sarah Palin under the bus. They are trying to allude to the fact that she is the reason that John McCain might have lost this election. That does not sit well with me. John McCain has not come out and said that Sarah Palin is an honorable woman and has not protected her" and "Honestly, I think she shines too much. I think vice president no, president definitely. She has moral values. She has a record of change that ... John McCain had supposedly … Sarah was actually too big of a personality, too big of a person to be vice president." Well too Joe, watch Leno much? John McCain defended an airhead, zealot nutjob as best as he could and then some. Dude you and your friends don't know shit so stop talking shit! Damn extreme conservatives are going to ruin us all! If you're actually interested in the interview hit the link
http://www.tuftsdaily.com/an_interview_with_joe_the_plumber. Seriously (I think I use this word too much), if the Republicans should follow anyone follow Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota or Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska who have a clear vision of the future for the party, not a stronger look backwards that most conservatives have.
Speaking of Republicans, um Mr. President Elect... I trust you and all... but, umm :scratches back of head: where is the bi-partisanship? All I seem to see is you hiring former Clinton adminstration people to be on your staff... Heck even a Clinton herself. Like I totally trust your judgement. You're smarter, better looking, and more qualified than I am (just how I like my
women politicians), but I'm pretty sure bi-partisan means bringing some peeps over from the other side. Hey Hagel's retiring as a senator, you should totally give him a job. It's not like he's going to have anything to do in two months. Oh and this was brought to my attention a few days ago, but my friend told me that Rahm Emanuel is actually the older brother of Ari Emanuel, who is a Hollywood super agent, who is the basis of the character Ari Gold from one of my favorite TV shows Entourage. Seriously, thats pretty damn cool! Don't believe me?
http://www.jewishjournal.com/elections/article/rahm_emanuels_brother_ari_emanuel_is_a_hollywood_superagent_20081106/. Best nickname ever for our new white house chief of staff... "Rahm-bo"! Score! Now if Obama can find some place on his staff to put Jeremy Piven in we'd be set... or at least a guest appearance on Entourage for the President-elect. C'mon, you know that's the true reason he hired Rahm Emanuel. I can see it now... Vinny Chase and Barack Obama starring in a reboot of Lethal Weapon. Hahahaha!
Alright I'm starting to get random. Time to end this. Tomorrow (hopefully), epic screencaps of Code Geass R2!
