Bank Failure………Thursday?

Community Bank of Rockmart in Rockmart, GA.

This is obviously out of the ordinary for the FDIC (the NCUA doesn't wait until Fridays), so I'm wondering if something is odd, as in criminal indictments to follow, or if this Thursday is Friday, because of the
Nigel Tufnel
Veteran's Day holiday.

We'll find out tomorrow, when I'll post my regular update, with graph, tomorrow.

It Just Gets Better

So, Joe Paterno has been fired, and is alleged to have hired a criminal defense attorney, and a Pittsburgh radio host is alleging that some of the young boys were pimped out to rich donors.

You know, this is what happens when you have an organization like the NCAA which creates a multi-billion dollar money machine on the backs of what are little more than slaves.

Division I sports is a mass of corruption, hypocrisy, and immorality which has as much to do with education as a prostate exam does with haute cuisine.

Here's a question for my reader(s).

Should this become a more regular feature?

I think that it should be good for covering the clown show that is the Republican primary.

Well What Do You Know? The Penn State Football is a Bunch of 'Phants!

Or, more accurately Jerry Sandusky and Joe Paterno are both registered Republicans, which is not as odd as it sounds, as coaching staffs tend to lean that way (with the notable exception of Bill Belichick).

Let is cede the fact that Republican does not equal pedophile, nor does it imply that Republicans support Pedophilia, though the abuse of power and self-entitlement bit, where Paterno and the Penn State sports program let it slide because Sandusky was one of them, does seem to be symptomatic of Republican party registration.

The point that the author makes in the article, and the one that I agree with, is that if either Sandusky or Paterno were Democrats, you would hear Rush Limbaugh making animal noises and Deliverance references while implying that Democrats support pedophilia.

FWIW, I agree with Olbermann, Paterno should be filed.

Desperately Seeking Anger Management Counseling

I give you deadbeat dad teabagger Congressman Joe Walsh:



I've seen politicians at confrontational meet and greets, and heard of one where the politician walked out (The well justified action of MD State Senator Bobby Zirkin when dealing with the [literally] insane CB screaming at him).

Sometimes a politician replies with mockery and scorn, see Barney Franks' epic take-down of teabagger hecklers.

As you can see above, Joe "Not the Guitar God" Walsh is not even attempting an epic take-down, he's just throwing an epic hissy fit.

I was half expecting him to throw a stroke.

No wonder his wife dumped his sorry ass.
