Fail

This jackass (Dylan Ratigan) is on MSNBC in the morning. As you can see, he's one of those "fast money" assholes.. you know.. one of those Jim Cramer types that has always been wrong about just about everything.

Yet.. they think that if they just yell loud enough, that will somehow make what they're saying a smart thing.

Today he's railing about how AIG has to be bankrupted.

AIG has insurance policies with a lot of other companies. This asshole doesn't say how many bankruptcies of other companies would be acceptable while bankrupting AIG. Would 10 be okay? 100? How many more people out of work is okay?

He doesn't say.

I suppose that's because they really don't care how many other companies go bankrupt, or how high unemployment goes. This is because they really don't care how high it goes, just so long as we're not doing anything "Socialist".

Of course.. bankruptcies and unemployment feeds on itself, as companies failing can trigger others, like a wave of dominoes falling.

I suppose there are no qualified economists that can host a teevee show.

....

Sotomayor is on the teevee answering some question or other.. It reminds me of that State of the Union rebuttle that Bobby Jindal did earlier this year.

It's awful.. awful.. awful.. she's annoying as fuck... sounding like she's talking to a bunch of 8 year olds.

She might make a decent SC justice.. but don't let her speak.
