Bombing Corporate Jets

My gut has been yelping at me for weeks: “Let’s, for a minute, set aside our Christianity to riot in the streets, burn down bank buildings (Citigroup anyone?), and bomb corporate jets”.

Even the mock-angry shock jocks don’t seem catastrophically upset enough over this one. Should I expect Rod Serling to soliloquy in the dim corner of my room? Or is this really happening?

Newly inaugurated President Obama promised stricter control over the now $850 billion bailout, which passed Congress today.

Even though it makes me want to puke on my laptop, we must consider this inanely stupid question: Is it possible that the first $350,000 billion was not enough and the $850,000 billion will actually stimulate the economy? Someone throw a shoe at my head!

* Stupid legal disclaimer for stupid people: please don’t literally riot, burn buildings, or bomb anything.
