Why does it have shipping costs?

Also, obviously this is a trick to raise campaign money for Obama :p

Sad what some people will do for attention. :nope:

Hate to break the bad news to Mr. Springfield, but he really is not that important to cause someone to spend money to shut him up.

Much easier to just ignore him. :up:

My bid was nothing since it's a known fact that if you shut one up, a thousand more will take their place;)

I think the shipping probably had something to do with the promised video of the procedure and the daily update to prove that the sutures were left in for a week.

Typical, ineffecient liberal thinking.

Why pay $5,000 to shut one up when ignoring all of them is free:D

And you think the Dems are any different?

Another shameless plug for Libertarianism!:D

I guess the only plus side this time around, the gov will own a sell-able asset in the end. That is if the extremely smart Warren Buffet doesn't beat them to the punch!

Sell-able asset my a$$. If a bunch of those loans go bad, they'll be up a creek, too. That's why no-one bought Lehman Bros.

Fecking government started this crap by providing the possibility of bailouts in the event of failures, now they're making it worse by guaranteeing it with nationalization of said institutions and adding a bunch of government administrative spending on top of that:damn:

Just watch inflation and unemployment skyrocket in the next few years. That is all that will come of this. I suspect there will be a temporary respite(fueled by McCain-Palin winning the election), followed by an economic downturn as a weakening dollar and mounting debts from nationalized banks destroy consumer confidence and stunt investment in U.S. companies. The rest of the world will follow suit as they see what is happening in the U.S., and we'll bottomout until the bear-market investors bring us back up. Let's just pray there isn't a war this time.

edit- I forgot something. Worst-case scenario; the economy surges upwards with some new investment bubble fueled by government backing of more risky or stupid ventures, then we fall again when it bursts, but it costs a lot more.

Don't even get me started on Lehman Brothers 0 cash reserve 28 year old MBA's that turned a solid company into a crock pot waiting to over-boil! Lehman Brothers hasn't had the cash reserves to weather a storm in over a decade!

I find it humorous the way the media plays Lehman brothers as a financially stable company too and 'how could this happen?' BS!

No doubt. And would any management have pulled such a stupid stunt without thinking there would be a federal bailout or knowing that they would escape with a golden parachute? Of course not.:yep:

But few look to the government for fault in situations like this, they look to them for solutions, as if they ever really solved anything!:damn:

Damn, now I'm all mad again.
