Again, Jeb recused himself from the process. Harris was just doing her job. With each recount Bush came out ahead, and people were holding up the election because they wanted to try and determine the "intentions of the voter". What kind of BS is that? Harris and the supreme court were right to put an end to the BS.... as later thorough recounts showed.

Article by Paul Krugman
October 7, 2009, 8:58 am Still chasing shadows? This article on the continued troubles in credit markets was informative. But it raised a puzzle. Call me naive, but why does Fed policy seem to assume that the only way to repair credit markets is to return to the status quo ante, circa January 2007? Here's how I think about what has happened these past 2+ years. I think in terms of a sort of flow chart, showing ways that savers can connect with borrowers: Traditionally - i.e., before the 1980s - the public put its money in banks, and banks made loans to borrowers: thus the diagonal arrow from banks to borrowers represents traditional banking. By 2007, however, much of this traditional channel had been supplanted by shadow banking: debt was securitized, and the securities sold to the public - the straight arrow across the bottom of the figure. Then the crisis came. The public rushed for safety, which basically meant guaranteed deposits. One rough indicator is holdings of MZM - money of zero maturity - which is the sum of bank deposits and money-market deposits: In effect, the public rushed back into the banks. But the banks weren't willing to lend out these excess funds. Instead, they accumulated deposits at the Fed: To prevent a complete collapse of credit, the Fed in effect recycled these deposits back into private credit via the TALF and other securities-purchase programs. So funds now flow all around the first figure, getting to the public via "Bernanke banking" (my term.) Everyone agrees that this is a stopgap, and we want to get the Fed out of the business of private lending over time. But here's my question: why does it have to be a return to shadow banking? The banks don't need to sell securitized debt to make loans - they could start lending out of all those excess reserves they currently hold. Or to put it differently, by the numbers there's no obvious reason we shouldn't be seeking a return to traditional banking, with banks making and holding loans, as the way to restart credit markets. Yet the assumption at the Fed seems to be that this isn't an option - that the only way to go is back to the securitized debt market of the years just before the crisis. Why? Are we still convinced that securitization is a far superior system to conventional banking, and if so why? Inquiring minds want to know. ![]()

I should get the Nobel Prize for Excessive Masturbation. By staying home and whacking to trannies, I am not causing problems elsewhere, thereby contributing to the greater peace. Plus I'll get 1 million so I can go to Thailand, Brazil and Denmark and meet lovely transsexuals!

![]() Well ... ![]() W didn't win the election, our Founding Fathers did! That's why they created the Electoral System ... to prevent morons from being President! Bussein is the biggest B.S. artist since Judas! Acorn stuffed the ballot boxes! I say, no ID, no vote ... comprende? !!! George Soros bought Bussein the NBP. They should rename it now to the NWC (not worth crap) !!! The inmates have taken over the asylum and they will make us all crazy, and broke! All illegal aliens should get is a bill or a one-way ticket home! The financial meltdown was hatched in the Carter and Billary administrations! Don't believe it ... then watch the documentary on MSNBC! Even the liberal MSNBC couldn't gloss over the facts! We need to support our very brave young men and women in Afghanistan! Please call your Senators and Congressperson (please excuse the PC lapse) and instruct them to tell Bussein to get off his fat ass and give the Generals, and our great troops, whatever they want, to win! Were it not for that coward, CPowell, Bush 41 would have laid waste to Iraq and Iwar no. 2 could have been avoided! Have you calculated your share of our quickly rising national debt lately? Take a chance and watch Fox News! I am not PC oriented, so I don't care what PCpeople think! Please spare me the liberal diatribe, I heard it all in the sixties. It didn't make sense then, and it makes no sense now! Sarah for President in 2012! ![]() |

Another time, I was in the TOC and I heard over the radio from a group of infantry guys that they saw an Iraqi dude doing something suspicious near a concrete barrier and they were requesting permission to engage him. A couple minutes later, they burst out laughing; turns out the Iraqi dude was not fiddling with a bomb or anything. He was fucking a goat behind a concrete traffic divider! I don't know how tolerant they'd be towards transsexuals. However, if we invade Iran, I'm sure there would be lots of beautiful transsexuals just waiting to get the hell out of there. Persian chicks are smoking hot and it would make sense that their trannies would be just as goregeous, if not more.
