The market was up over 11% today...an amount by which, when it went down, all the folks in the media announced that, "over a trillion dollars of wealth was lost today...". How many saw - or expect to see - the reverse?  read more »

I have no idea what they're smoking over at the Washington Post, but PLEASE, get them some more! (But it does seem like a sign of the end of times...)

Check out their take on the cause of the financial mess...  read more »

The fact is most people don't understand basic economics. The Democrat Party, supported by the liberal media, has recently been advancing the canard that the current financial crisis is the fault of the Bush Administration and Republicans.

This is just too rich. Remember how we were told that the market tanked 777 points the day after the House voted "no" on the bailout this week? And how they blamed (primarily) House Republicans for killing the deal...and erasing a trillion dollars worth of wealth... (More than the bailout would have cost us, we were told).  read more »

As I've said before, the bad thing about this financial "crisis" is that it's attracting all the media attention away from the real scandal that they don't want to cover. That being the crooks at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac...and their buddies in the Democrat party.

Well, well, well. Congress refuses to pass a massive tax-payer bailout of Wall Street and politicians and the media lose their minds... The market goes down 777 points. The media tells us this is the single worst loss in Wall Street history. But what they DIDN'T say was 777 points in 2008 ain't the same thing as twenty years ago.  read more »

Conservatives all across America flooded Congress with the demand that they say NO to the $700 billion dollar bailout.

They felt the heat and they rejected the bill.  read more »

The House just rejected the proposed $700-plus billion dollar bailout. Let the recriminations begin. (Chris Matthews is already acting as though Republicans killed it, despite 40% opposition from the Dems).  read more »
