On CNBC, these Wall Street assholes are screaming, "We need leadership from Washington...
and we're not getting it."

The same people who revolted every time they were threatened with a rule or a law.

The same people whose side bets on a fictitious real estate market got us into this mess.

The same people who created a scam market called "credit default swaps," just so they wouldn't be subject to regulations of the insurance marketplace.

The same people who have been working for Republicans since 1980.

I hate the shamelessness of these people. They wouldn't know leadership if it sat bare-assed on their faces. I can't wait until President Obama calls them on it when he tells them how they are going to have to behave in their new lives.

As long as they can steal, cheat the system, and it works to their advantage fine.

If not, HELP ME....WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH....WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

10. Fucking Larry Kudlow ... I hope he loses his shirt
Smug, self-righteous rat bastard looking down his
patrician nose at the rabble ... He should be forced
to eat nothing but Spam for a YEAR.

11. There are no atheists in fox holes, and there are no "free market republicans"
in a fucking Wall Street meltdown.
