What did HA reader Eric H donate?

Not a thing, I assure you.

This will amount to an official cover-up and rewriting of how Obama got elected.

Obama got elected?

I thought I saw a hand come down from the heavens in Denver…saying “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased,” and then a time warp carried us all to 20 January 2009, on the steps of the Capital.

Almost as bad as putting Jaime Gorelick on the commission investigating the intelligence failures that led to 9/11. Leftists are corrupt pigs.

None of the Republicans challenged the placement of Gorelick on the 9/11 “Commission”. Obviously those 900 purloined FBI files did their trick.

What was so pathetic about that entire farce was when John Ashcroft came before the panel as a witness. When he correctly noted that Gorelick should have been testifying under oath like him, instead of being a “Commissioner”, he was roundly booed by the Clinton kneepads in the gallery.

Jaime Gorelick?

A great democrat if ever there was one!

She had no experience in finance and was made vice chair of FNMA (by Clinton?) and assured the regulators of how well the whole place was run, in the midst of a $9 Billion scandal. She did manage a three quarter of a million dollar bonus during the creative Raines scandal.

She understands theft. Or she should…

I thought Pelosi said she was going to end the “culture of corruption” that had her underpants in such a tight knot three years ago.

And she did. What you see in DC today isn’t your grandpa’s culture of corruption. Today’s CoC is bigger, more blantant, and more immune to prosecution than the old one ever was.

This is where you end up when you have one side of the political aisle that has been thoroughly spoiled by being allowed to get away with anything without serious reprisals. I’m starting to think that nothing will change unless citizens turn vigilante and march on DC en masse and physically arrest and try these bottom-feeders themselves.

I will not renew my Norton security. I’ll find a better one that doesn’t donate to people who want to ruin this Country.

I’m currently researching a problem, and attempting to get technical help from Symantec tech support.

The support I’m getting is appalling. Email returned because reply-to address not correct. Online contact email address not correct. Tech advice from help desk not appropriate. Degree of competence of tech support abysmal.
Online help desk requires that I enable remote assistance, and permit tech support total access to my system. Verification of credentials/identity of tech support impossible.

I don’t think I’ll be renewing my subscription to this product either.

Dems appoint big donors to financial investigation committee

In other news, the Pope is Catholic, water is wet, bears defecate in the woods, and Keith Olbermann is a douche.

So far, it looks as though corruption in Washington is growing in exponential lockstep with the ballooning deficit.

The ONLY effective ethics reform is smaller government!

If no one was watching over them, fraud in these institutions would cause them to be less successful. They would have to fix themselves. Under the current regulatory environment, they can shift some blame to the government and ask for more regulation.

Let the NYSE, for example, police the companies on its exchange.

It’s Greenspan’s fault (he kept interest rates too low for too long), and Bernanke is making everything worse.

Without the Fed, “there would likely be be no inflation, we’d have steady economic growth, no bubbles/bursts, no malinvestment, we’d have a relatively tranquil financial world, there would be a greater amount of wealth, and the Welfare-Warfare state would be harder to finance.”
