Awesome piece by Jon Stewart on The Daily Show – it highlights the pure hypocrisy that Glen Beck has made of himself. This is just pure comedic genius, kudos to Jon and the writers of The Daily Show:
“The hole that they stitched up in Glenn Beck’s Ass hasn’t healed enough for him to stop talking out of it.”
The Daily Show and Colbert Report air Monday through Thursday starting at 11pm / 10c.
and next after the jump, watch Stephen Colbert discuss Glenn Beck’s rapidly dwindling sponsor list (and the eugenics video montage bullsh*t from Glenn too).
Peter Schiff Thursday on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. There is a ton of material in here besides the Senate discussion. Schiff articulates clearly that the financial crisis has passed but the economic one is still squarely upon us….
Right about now, Apple probably wishes it had never rejected Google Voice and related apps from the iPhone. Or maybe it was AT&T who rejected the apps. Nobody really knows. But the FCC launched an investigation last night to find out, sending letters to all three companies (Apple, AT&T, and Google) asking them to explain exactly what happened.
On its face, it might seem odd to some people that the FCC is investigating the rejection of a single iPhone app. After all, iPhone apps are rejected every day. But the Google Voice rejection caused an unusual amount of uproar, and there is nothing like a high-profile case to make an example out of in pursuit of pushing a bigger policy agenda. The FCC investigation is not just about the arbitrary rejection of a single app. It is the FCC’s way of putting a stake in the ground for making the wireless networks controlled by cell phone carriers as open as the Internet.
Our economy is in a major Financial crisis, and our government says that bold action is required. So we’re diving in head first to get things back on track. But… what are we diving into exactly?
Take a closer look at the government response to our current economic crisis with narrator Nick Gillespie of ReasonTV.
Okay – as most of you know I’m a Fiscally Conservative Democrat (Old-School NON Neo-Con Republican). All this bailout money is really making me nauseous – and to see where the money is flowing, worries me even more. Check out the table below and let me know if you too see any issues with our current “Bail out” policy – looks like a block Swiss cheese to me, when we’re trying to grow sprouts (ughhhh!)
My God – we are screwed! Who is getting the bank bailout money – CNNMoney.com
SO Bitter/Mad/Angry/Frustrated at Congress right now (I told you so, isn’t felt strong enough!):
(AP) Banks that are getting taxpayer bailouts awarded their top executives nearly $1.6 billion in salaries, bonuses, and other benefits last year, an Associated Press analysis reveals.
The rewards came even at banks where poor results last year foretold the economic crisis that sent them to Washington for a government rescue. Some trimmed their executive compensation due to lagging bank performance, but still forked over multimillion-dollar executive pay packages.
Benefits included cash bonuses, stock options, personal use of company jets and chauffeurs, home security, country club memberships and professional money management, the AP review of federal securities documents found.
The total amount given to nearly 600 executives would cover bailout costs for many of the 116 banks that have so far accepted tax dollars to boost their bottom lines.
Honestly how can we get this data, and start a email campaign to Congress and our Senators!
This is the same as Taxpayer Grand Larceny and FRAUD!

Jim Rogers has predicted the Mortgage Collapse, and the commodity declines of recent months, I’m so extatic to have people like this telling us the REAL truth about the economy. Ron Paul, Peter Schiff, Jim Rogers, Chuck Baldwin, Jesse Ventura, Bob Barr are all True Economic Whistleblowers – Heros, and are going in the history books.
“These guys, for all that stuff they’ve been telling us all these years about, ‘Go capitalism! Free market! Free enterprise!’ They don’t believe in any of that. They don’t believe in free enterprise or free market. They want socialism for themselves. They want a handout and a net for themselves. To hell with everybody else, but give it to them. And I think, really, what we’re seeing now — with them, with the banks — we’re seeing the end of capitalism. The end of capitalism as we know it and I say good riddance. It hasn’t helped the people or the planet.” — Michael Moore on Larry King Live, Wednesday, November 19th, 2008
