61-37

Can't wait to see what routinely means. This is Day 0 of my watch. Or maybe Day -14 or something. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and wait till the President signs it.

The DSCC has never really targeted him, presumably because he's not a staunch conservative; on the other hand he only won the 2004 Republican primary by 51-49, and that was with endorsements from Bush and Santorum who obviously won't be around in 2010. It'll be an interesting Senate race to say the least.

Yeah , because republicans are so fiscally conservative right? Do you guys even care about the facts? However, once again you do confirm the libertarian bias for the GOP. You guys say not to confuse Libertarians with Republicans but from a real life practical point of view there is no difference. Its basically why you emphasize the current proposed solutions to this problem as well as the last Republican Great Depression as the issue while ignoring and making the lamest of excuses how we got.

Let me summarize; We got here because a bunch of Wall Street Financial Cowboys were allowed to roam free and unattended. We are still here because the products those Wall Street Financial Cowboys created have brought credit to a standstill because no one will declare "Whats in their Wallets" or in fact no one "knows" even though EVERYONE knows its less then ZERO.

Anyone wanna try and decipher this?
Ed February 11, 2009 at 12:02 pm: That site went up two or three weeks ago. It's been blank ever since.
Christopher Renner February 11, 2009 at 2:13 pm: muirgeo,

Just a friendly suggestion – your ad hominem comments about wall street would make more sense if you likened them to animals, not cowboys.
Mezzanine February 11, 2009 at 3:34 pm: translated muirduck – anything I don't like in business is called "capitalist cowboys" and blah blah blah. Logic thrown out the window, worship at the "Church of Emotion" services at 12PM.
Mezzanine February 11, 2009 at 3:35 pm: Note that muirduck uses the language that is common on university campuses. Terms like "cowboy", "republican great depression". Is he 18 years old?
brotio February 12, 2009 at 2:38 am: I think that Sveta's last paragraph translates into English as:

If brains were gasoline, Mierduck wouldn't have enough to drive an ant's go-kart around the inside of a Cheerio

Either that, or it's a comment on his genealogy.
