November 2010 can’t come soon enough, sheesh.

Oh wow, that’s pretty bad. I’m so proud today, first Snowe, then the ‘What Up’ thing…sigh.

Link worked for me (probably fixed).

Another reason to have politicians less involved in our lives.

So, they can’t afford a competent web admin? Or, did somebody do it on purpose?

Game over man, Game over.

After printing up trillions of new dollars and new bonds to stimulate the US economy, the Federal Reserve chief is now boxed into a corner battling two separate monsters that could devour the economy — ravenous inflation on one hand, and a perilous recession on the other.

“He’s in a crisis worse than the meltdown ever was,” said Peter Schiff, president of Euro Pacific Capital. “I fear that he could be the Fed chairman who brought down the whole thing.”

Economists believe the market rebellion against the dollar will spread until Bernanke starts raising interest rates from around zero to the high single digits (that’s 8-9% – ed), and pulls back the flood of currency spewed from US printing presses.

Economists warn that a jump in rates will clobber stocks and cripple the already stalled housing market.

“Bernanke’s other choice is to keep rates at zero, print even more money and sell more debt, but we’ll see triple-digit inflation that could collapse the economy as we know it.

Connection to the sluggishness at GOP.com right now?

kc8ukw on October 13, 2009 at 4:22 PM

The GOP also needs to get a new logo/web presence. It looks OLD and TIRED!!!!!

BoomJunkie on October 13, 2009 at 4:25 PM

Holy crap Steele, what are you doing?

You need to fire whoever was responsible for this. If they leave this out, who knows what else is wrong with your security.

I can’t believe how low the yen has gone against the dollar. I haven’t been able to pay close attention as I was able to a few months ago with a move and having to take care of my mom.
My dad was stationed in Japan and left we left in ’89 and I think the yen was about 120 yen to the dollar. Now it’s in the 80′s yikes not good. Espically if you have to live on the economy there.
When he was stationed there before I was born it was 320 yen to the dollar.
We always were told when we lived over there if the yen goes below 100 yen to the dollar watch out. Now I am afraid to see what’s going to happen.

“Enthusiastic new GOP web intern reassigned”

eeyore on October 13, 2009 at 4:27 PM

I was responding to lorien1973 article she posted about.

Brat4life on October 13, 2009 at 4:28 PM

Yep. I’ve been hearing that forever, too.

lorien1973 on October 13, 2009 at 4:31 PM

Sigh… GOP and teh internets just aren’t friends. I would consult Ted Stevens for a lesson on how the ‘series of tubes’ works. John McCain can consult – apparently he is “aware of the internet”. Then of course there is Sarah Palin, who got her yahoo! account hacked.

You guys are so quaint! So mid 20th century.

simplesimon on October 13, 2009 at 4:33 PM

simplesimon on October 13, 2009 at 4:33 PM

So it’s Sarah’s fault that some punk son of a Democrat polictican did something unethical?

What a warped little world you live in.

NebCon on October 13, 2009 at 4:35 PM

GOP has a lot of cleaning up to do. This is embarrassing.

BobMbx on October 13, 2009 at 4:38 PM

Yeah. Well, I once wound up in the admin section here at HotAir so sometimes it happenes to the best of ‘em.

Maybe. Click on your name right above the comment box, and it takes you to an “admin section”… but not to anything really useful.

Was this what you’re referring to?

Abby Adams on October 13, 2009 at 4:46 PM

Was this what you’re referring to?

Abby Adams on October 13, 2009 at 4:46 PM

No, Abby. The site was upgraded about a year ago and during the process there was some glitches. (It might have been 2 years ago – I don’t remember – seems like is was before Ed was here) Anyway, when you logged in, you were taken right into the admin section. Allah posted a thread about the upgrade and fix. I’m sure he remembers it well.

Rod on October 13, 2009 at 4:54 PM

Guaranteed this design work went to some party official’s son fresh out of college. Like everything in the GOP, it’s all about keeping it in the family. Everyone’s in it for their own career and comfort.

That’s why the GOP is a loser. I’ll be surprised if they make any gains in 2010.

spmat on October 13, 2009 at 4:56 PM

Steele is a disaster. They should put Sarah in charge.

WisCon on October 13, 2009 at 4:56 PM

I hear they have the internet on computers now.

BL@KBIRD on October 13, 2009 at 5:01 PM

Hey, what’s this button do?

ncborn on October 13, 2009 at 5:09 PM

Oh, who cares?! I’m not the gop and it is no reflection on me. And they will correct it. Big effin deal!

Looks like Steele gots more soul than he can con-trol!

It’s pathetic. He needs to go.

Hahahah! Dumbass LGF is going on and on about how Hotair said nothing about this story because we were waiting for orders so we can march in step or some b.s. However, HA posted on the story two hours before the LGF idiots. I mean what a stupid thing to rag on to begin with then they are wrong, to boot. Idiots.
