The mainstream media are screaming their heads off about the "failure" of the House of Representatives to plunder middle-income America for the benefit of the Wall Street/Washington plutocracy. This morning on MSNBC Mrs. Alan Greenspan (Andrea Mitchell) was screeching like a wounded bluejay over the chutzpah of the American public in failing to "rescue" what's left of her husband's legacy.

Speaking of Greenspan, where the hell's he been? Wasn't it just a few years ago that he was portrayed by all the world's media as the Master of the Economic Universe, the "maestro" whose central planning expertise was the sole source of everyone's prosperity? Has anyone heard a peep from the Maestro about the current economic crisis?

she was transferring her projections onto Newt Gingrich today as she stumbled into MSNBC while lost in the corridirs of NBC.

Apparently, she was furious over Newt's flip flop from being against the bailout and for it again, but not before he further explained to the American people once again that "mark to market" accounting only works in an inflationary economy and that a "rolling three year average" would work better under the current situation to stem the tide of irrelevant procedural rules not meant to enhance revenue to the Treasury in a downturn, but only in an upturn.

It seems manipulation accompanies tax accounting rules only convenient for revenue enhancement.

I wonder......

who's game is that?

I think he's laying low for awhile.
