OpEdNews - Page 3 of Article: Banks Have The Runs, Congress Constipated, Dictator Delighted

Oh, that's rich.

Or maybe I should say:

Oh, that's poor.

Because isn't Stout really telling us that: The poor will bail out the rich?

Can anyone say: No blood from turnip?

Thank you, Congress. Because they expended all that effort to produce, essentially, nothing.

It's almost like they're trying to tell us:

Straining at the stool is better than not having strained at all.

DICTATOR DELIGHTED

"In recent weeks, the federal government has taken extraordinary measures to address the challenges confronting our financial markets. We've taken control of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- the home finance agencies to help promote market stability and to ensure they can continue to play a role in helping our housing market recover." -- President George H. W. Bush

We've taken control?

Hmm.

Isn't that socialism?

"One can only step back and laugh at the hilarity of it all," chuckles Mike Adams of Natural News. "By decree, no one can short sell financial institutions now. It's as if the King declared all markets shall always go UP, and anyone caught lowering stock prices shall be arrested for crimes against the State. President Bush might as well declare gravity to be outlawed, or the laws of physics to be suspended."

It's great to be King.

"Anyone found engaging in illegal financial transactions will be caught and persecuted [sic]," said President Bush.
