    Thank God they broke #ows up. The protestors were about to get into bundling bad mortgages & betting trillions on unregulated derivatives.

    Remember when we would get annoyed that Adam Sandler was doing a dramatic movie because it meant he wasn’t doing a comedy?

    CORRECTION: RomneyCare and ObamaCare aren’t exactly the same. RomneyCare covers abortions.

    they didn’t break OWS

    it has simply temporarily relocated

    may have been the best thing they could have done for OWS

    makes those who cheered on the sideline wonder if they should be in the streets

    yeah, maybe bloomberg is a closet ows supporter. the best thing he did for the movement was bring out the riot gear.

    I thought the cain quote was pretty optimistic, “more powerful pauses”… don’t we all need to do that sometimes?

    “One of the millionaires suggested that if Norquist wanted low taxes and less government, “Renounce your American citizenship and move to Somalia where they don’t collect any tax.””

    [Thinking about what you just said.]

    Hmmm. Pauses.

    My policy on pauses . . .

    So . . . mmmm . . . what do I think about pauses? Is that what you’re asking?

    Or did you want to know what I think about stalling?

    Cain defends foreign policy stumbles. Says knowing every detail isn’t important: “We need a leader, not a reader.”

    “We need a leader, not a reader.”

    Wow. Did Cain really say that? I thought that was W’s line. Remember? Bush said he didn’t need to read the newspapers because he had other people do that for him. Can you imagine?

    I can.

    Cheney: Hey, George! Did you read where Saddam has WMDs and he’s about to use ’em on us?

    Bush: Gosh no, Dick! You don’t say! That’s awful.

    Cheney: Oh yeah. And it looks like we’re gonna have to attack him first, to prevent that from happening.

    Bush: Aw shucks, really? Attack? You mean like war n’stuff?

    Cheney: Oh, yeah, George. That’s what the article I was reading said. Look. Here it is. Right here in the New York Times.

    Bush: Those smarty-pants reporters! How do they know all that stuff anyways?

    Cheney: Easy-peasy, George. I just call the Times every morning and tell ’em.

    i am going to go for hope

    after all, hope won an election

    just because it doesn’t seem to have lasted long after the election doesn’t mean it was a bad idea

    Would be a lot funnier if Pricess Leia and Captain Kirk were in their original outfits when they bash each other about which empire was the best…then…when they look in the mirror today…they will just…go away…

    “This country does in fact have a serious deficit problem. But the reality is that the deficit was caused by two wars – unpaid for. It was caused by huge tax breaks for the wealthiest people in this country. It was caused by a recession as a result of greed, recklessness and illegal behavior on Wall Street. And if those are the causes of the deficit, I will be damned if we’re going to balance the budget on backs of the elderly, the sick, the children, and the poor. That’s wrong.” – Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Senate Budget Committee, 11/18/2011
