    AIG has a travel voucher shortfall? They need more money for executive retreats at spas so they can discuss how to spend the taxpayers’ money?

    Rat Bastards. They don’t don’t get the concerns of the peasants who bailed them out. Let them eat cake.

    This must have been what made the Dow take a 400-point-plus dive in the last hour of trading, after struggling to maintain straight-and-level flight most of the day.

    Well, who woulda thought…Really, it couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of self-righteous assholes.

    Recently, the Ohio Supreme Court, in a 4-3 decision, dealt a serious blow to Ohio Republican efforts to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters and at the same time vindicated Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner’s efforts to ensure all Ohioans have equal access to the polls. The Republican-dominated Supreme Court proved to be a check on Republican efforts to cause voter confusion with frivolous lawsuits. Additionally, U.S. Northern District Judge James S. Gwin ruled Brunner was properly upholding Ohio election laws in stating the Republican position “would lead to illogical results, potentially disenfranchising large numbers of voters.”

    In issuing this ruling, the courts have clearly rebuked the Ohio Republican Party for employing blatantly partisan tactics toward Brunner. With the presidential election fast approaching, Ohio Republicans have been ramping up their attacks on Brunner daily. Such attacks have led to accusations of Brunner attempting to disenfranchise voters and allegations that she has and will continue to break state election laws unless stopped. This is the same Republican Party that purposefully challenged thousands of voters in 2004 based solely on undeliverable pre-election mailings and wanted to void new voter registrations not printed on 80-pound paper. The courts have unveiled this blatant Republican hypocrisy.

    You all are wrong. If you look to the WSJ today, Oct 9, 2008, the extra line of credit makes excellent sense. Its so they don’t have to use the entire original line of credit!
    We are such fools. We should have let them go down in flames as the free market demands. But we don’t have a free market when it concerns losses do we? Only profits demand market solutions.
