Rants -- October 9, 2008, Uncut, Unedited Because I'm Lazy Today

Welcome to the October 9, 2008 edition of Rants. 

Wenchypoo presents Updated: Will The REAL Economy Please Stand Up? (L-O-N-G) posted at Wisdom From Wenchypoo's Mental Wastebasket, saying, "Please accept my apologies for submitting a rant that isn't politically-based, but I wrote this back in January, and now spiffed up for September, it accurately explains just what the hell's going on with our economy today." 
Posts don't have to be political. They can be anything that really chaps your hide. 

Wenchypoo presents Updated: Why Your Vote Really Doesn't Matter posted at Wisdom From Wenchypoo's Mental Wastebasket, saying, "The original post was written back in January, but I spiffed it up for September because it's still relevant--even more so now." 

Mike Gogulski presents Unabashed anti-Americanism posted at nostate.com. 

NotYourDaddy presents No Federal Bailouts! posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, "This country is headed for disaster because of fiscal irresponsibility at every level, encouraged by those who think the government can just manipulate the economy a little bit more, just another tweak here or another pinch there. A push here or a squeeze there. But it’s all an illusion as long as the debt keeps growing." 





Archvillain presents Shell Game posted at A Dark and Sinister Force for Good, saying, "We are being conned! Again!" 

leon rostaing presents Spank your arctic monkey posted at bands you love to hate. 

Jason Mosley presents Arby's Chicken Bacon and Swiss Sandwich: FAIL at MrBaconpants.com posted at MrBaconpants.com. 

leon rostaing presents Listening to Coldplay is like trying to commit suicide by pouring hot wax into your ears posted at bands you love to hate. 
I'll be sure to listen! NOT. Though I hear the lead singer sounds like Bono...not Sonny 


NotYourDaddy presents Social Engineering as Economic Policy posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, "What we are witnessing today is not a failure of the free market. It is the failure of social engineering as economic policy. And it’s a disaster of epic proportions."

babs mountjoy presents A mother of a job posted at Awalkabout's Weblog, saying, "What job can't a woman do?" 

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Did The Dog Eat John McCain's Debate Notes? posted at Mad Kane's Political Madness.

DWSUWF presents "The ShitHouse" - A fable for our time posted at Divided We Stand United We Fall, saying, "All this political discussion has made me hungry. I think I'll walk down to the ShitHouse and order up a double order of tonight's blue plate special - the Economic Rescue Plan Crap Sandwich." 
Sounds yummy.


Sean Lindo presents McCain and the theatre of the absurd posted at Sean Lindo, saying, "Just a mixture of rants with a college filter." 

Tom Hanna presents How broke is it? posted at Tom Rants, saying, "A common sense conservative refrain is «If it ain't broke, don't fix it.» So now that the House of Representatives (including 90 some Democrats) have rejected the Mother of All Bailouts and the market is dealing with the news, before the next round of political tinkering we can take the time to ask «How broke is it?»" 

Phil B. presents Why the Bank Bailout will probably NOT Work posted at Phil for Humanity, saying, "Here are my 4 reasons why the Bank Bailout will probably NOT work."

Do I win some sort of prize for winning the top two positions in your carnival? :)

Thanks for providing a shoulder for us to cry, shout, scream, and rave on. We really need it.
