I am weary of these presstitutes expressing faux outrage over the financial crisis
It did NOT happen in a vacuum...it happened right in front of everyone's eyes. If EVERYTHING else failed, THE PRESS was supposed to be the ones to inform us of the illegal dealings that were going on. They FAILED at their job and HOW DARE THEY now start expressing outrage at the financial situation.
These fuckers ought to be dragged through the streets with everyone else that was complicit (R&D alike) until their flesh is falling off of their bones and then let us pour turpentine on their gashing wounds.
These fuckers should be in the unemployment lines--right beside the bankers and Wall Street thieves and corrupt politicians.
Maybe one of these days, Americans will realize that these fucketty fucks should be AFRAID of US...and give them reason to be
:mad:

nothing worse than the hypocrisy of people expressing outrage over something they played a key role in.

2. They call themselves teabaggers, but
they're the ones lying down with their mouths wide open.

3. I have to disagree on one point.
They did not fail at their job. In fact, they did their jobs perfectly. They did exactly what their corporate masters asked them to do and they did it perfectly. While the predators feasted, the corporate media kept our little heads busy with the dead or missing blond du jour - Hollyweird's latest scandal - and which republican got busted being sexually deviant this week. They did their jobs very very well.

I also take issue with the violence. Just put them in a regular jail rather than a country club jail. Our jails are such shitholes as it is the people who did this would be well taken care of, and little 5 yr old Suzy Lu won't have to witness her neighbors being violent.

4. "The bankers and Wall Street thieves"
ARE pretty much on the unemployment lines. The press and politicians have pretty much escaped this fate.

5. If a drunk drives his car into the ditch, he doesn't get to drive the tow truck
These faux outraged people need to just sit back, sober up and enjoy the ride.

6. Newsmedia ignored plank in 2004 Dem platform re looming credit and mortgage crisis
that Kerry crafted specifically to focus on solutions to deal with it before it spun out of control.

This plank was new to Dem platform and the RNC had nothing to counter it - newsmedia deliberately ignored this new plank. Gee.....wonder why?
