With Greenspan on board it might be a matter of time before we own us some banks. (I hope they come with box seats to the Mets!) Anyway, roll this action up with some billions for ACORN and the swift re-imposition of the fairness doctrine (cue scary organ music) along with some abortion clinic construction […]

Government will grow, not shrink, more taxes, more poor people getting help, more lazy people that don’t deserve good public education will […]
