Axis of Weasels: Washington & Wall Street

What ever happened to responsibility and accountability? Or even good old fashioned shame, for that matter?

Thousands died in a terrorist attack on our country and nobody got fired. Now hundreds of billions of dollars have been flushed down, and nobody gets fired. Instead, we call together the greedy pigs and candyman congressmen who caused it to formulate a plan that will reload Wall Street's vaults with my money.

And the Wall Street welfare queens and bleeding heart politicians who screwed us express no remorse whatsoever. OJ Simpson at least vowed to find the killers...

Anyway, what kind of a financial crisis is this when not even one banker has thrown himself out of a 20 story window? It should be raining remorseful, failed Wall Street Wizards right now.

I listened to the President's speech, and there was one thing missing. Here's what he should have said at the end:

"Now, to help pay for this, as well as to thin the investment banker herd, I'm announcing the federal government will be selling game tags for $1,000 a piece. That's right, for a thousand bucks you can take dead aim on the rich. Now I know some of you boys down in Alabama don't have that kind of money, so we're allowing team hunting. You can pool your money...

OK, so that's going overboard... But I'm mad and I want accountability!

I want to see investment banker heads on pike poles like in the movie Braveheart. I want mountains of Wall Street Wanker skulls piled up like in the days of Tamerlane and Samarkand. I want to see these pseudo-capitalists running down the street chased by angry mobs bearing torches and pitchforks. I want blood...

Limiting executive pay is not enough, not by a long shot dammit! These arrogant bastards need to put some skin in the game: Sell that vacation home, the extra cars, melt down the silver, hock the jewelry... I want to see these greedy weasels squirm. On top of that, the government should only hand over half of what they need. If they're so damned smart they can figure out the rest on their own.

Of course, none of that will happen. We demand nothing of our leaders, so we receive nothing. Harry and the Pelosicrats are planning to cut you another $600 check, though. That should shut us up for awhile, and the World Series is coming up...
