Why shouldn't they have? Why do American Taxpayers have to subsidize the poor decisions of others? I guess we'll just line up the next time the financial markets crash because financial intitutions do whatever they want, essentially risk free....
Great point. Western civilization should have been allowed to collapse because AIG, Goldman, Bear, Lehman and company failed to model risk appropriately. Tax payers would have been much better off had the global economy failed in an event which would have made the so called Great Recession (which was already pretty miserable for the average tax payer) look like a picnic, than having the tax dollars which they already paid directed toward preserving their way of life.

But that happens everyday, to all sort of business, in many different sectors. Companies overextend, roll out bad products, etc. and they have to do the layoffs, which hurts familes, that kills grandma etc- then they enter protection and decide if they can survive, be purchased or liquidate....
I mean I suppose the are times when emergency capital is warranted, natural disaster, terrosit attack, etc... but risky behvior at the hands of people probably knew better, no.
So our capital markets and entire system of credit should have been forced into bankruptcy to either restructure or cease to exist? I like the way you think. I'm sure corporate America and by extension the global economy would have had only minor growing pains transitioning to a zero credit environment.

Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?
Get on with it.

Even if you were born in Hawaii ? ?

That is weird. You'd think he'd recognize the cars and the height of the trees. Unless, he wasn't really born in...

That's over the line? Did I offend your sensibilities, Phil Donahue?
This isn't 'Nam 3rd. There are rules.

Discover oil in Africa.
People don't seem to be enough. Not to governments anyway.
Yeah, that solved all the problems in Congo and Sudan. A little oil will lubricate the tension and certainly not lead to tribal warfare or ethnic cleansing.

Ok, so you want how did God do it.
I'd settle for why he did it.

Lol. Pretty unlikely Obama loses to anyone the Republicans finally decide on. Romney will at least make it close though.
Still have the Republicans controlling all of Congress though.
We have a new challenger!
Please explain how Obama has this contest wrapped up even before its begun?

Will you jerks put your partisan bullstojan aside for one second? Global warming isn't just a pissing contest anymore about who's science is more accurate. This stuff is serious now.

Do you guys ever get tired of comparing Obama to Nazis? I thought that when Bush left office would could put the whole Nazi thing to bed. However I think for the rest of history one party will always accuse the other party of being a bunch of Nazis and fascists.
I know people that grew up in real fascist nations under true fascist leaders and to claim that Obama or Bush a Nazi or a fascist is a total insult to them.
Well the guy won't play golf with Netanyahu. What conclusions are we supposed to arrive at other than national socialism? Or are you calling Hank "Bear" Williams Jr. a liar and a homosexual?

There's a good chance he could show up in this thread and give you a public apology.
I want a phone call at least as long as what Sandra got. I'd also like an apology for cancelling Arrested Development.
-
I'm still waiting for Obama to apologize to me for my dog Checkers who ran away when I was in the 4th grade.
-
Now, that's a bit much. Sure, he should be reprimanded in some way, but lose his license?
Sometimes people forget that doctors are actually doing something great for society and that their patients and people in general would be the ones that would suffer if he lost his license. Having loose lips certainly does not equate to practicing bad, negligent medicine.
Except that its the law, and those are the consequences. Its right in the oath they have to take or have you totally forgotten the ruling in Hipaacrates vs. Alabama?

Right after a hard workout.
When you get in bed with Holley Mangold, you're not done until Holley says stop. Can you handle that?
-
Apparently Nick Mangold is the second strongest(and possibly the second largest) athlete in his family... not sure quite what to say about his sister, other than when I hear the name Holley, a completely different picture enters my mind...
Didn't you read the article? She doesn't want to look like that. That huge gut and all those chins are just a part of her training and makes her a better athlete somehow. After she brings home the gold and sheds the pounds she'll probably look like Kate Upton and I'll bet you change your tune.

Just more evidence that Pres. Obama is really an Illuminati puppet.
Now, more to the point of the OP, why is it that associating with certain types of people puts you in the same category of those people? Is it only because those are eeeevil groups? I associate myself with Christians, break bread with Christians, and attend events espousing and celebrating Christianity. Am I a Christian?
If you're doing it at church, then quite likely you are a Christian or at least share many similar views.
The simple act of associating with socialists, Marxists and other left leaning groups doesn't mean much taken alone, but when you're associating with these types at functions celebrating known Marxists then its a pretty clear indication that Barry is at least sympathetic to their cause. Politicians get to know all sorts of unsavory characters, and I couldn't care less if Obama enjoys talking borscht with Lenin himself every year at the XYZ gala fundraiser. But there is a difference between overlapping social circles with socialists and going out of your way to serve on a panel with the radical left. In this instance I think its totally fair to discuss Obama's associations.

My kids are off this week for spring. break, and were total tools this weekend. So today we have about 2 inches come down, and the public schools are closed. The snow will all be melted by. noon looks like, so they dont even get to play in it for long. HAH, there s a God,,,,,
Like the Bible teaches: Honour thy father, little tools, lest thou be smote.
Not sure a day off from school is really going to upset them that much, but glad you're happy.

Looks like the evil free market might be doing OK by the Chinese. Big question is whether or not they can sustain growth now that social reforms and wage growth means they are no longer the cheapest pool of labor.

A teenage girl called. She wants her emoticons back.

It just seems as though they don't give a rats a** about keeping the Bills where they belong ! No wonder the guy that owned the Sabres Tom Galisano wanted to get out of NY , he found out just how sh***y the democratic gov't is in NY .. VOTE THERE CROOKED
OUT so WNY can get what they need & want to keep our Bills right where they belong -- IN BUFFALO !!I don't really think that money should be spent on sports teams but seeing as they are come on spread the love don't hog it all in NYC ! Why doesn't any of the media reporters do a story on this subject ?? Are they afraid ??
Coincidence that there is no money for the Bills ---- i'd say NOT !!!!!
This is your chance. Channel your inner Bob Woodward and deepthroat the nearest Bernstein. The American people have a right to know!!

This isn't new. I learned all about this in American history.
Solutrean Neglect led to the massacre at wounded knee and started the first Civil War against the hated Red Coats.

You also forgot the part where he only wants to have a discussion...as long as it doesn't involve discussing how he's incorrect.
You're just incapable of understanding J8 and his self-described "complicated" politics.

Clearly we disagree on the magnitude of the situation which would have transpired if AIG, Merrill and Bear were allowed to fail. I'm less concerned with whether or not Wall Street learned anything from this debacle as long as our government, rating agencies and regulatory bodies learned the appropriate lessons.
