I am so disgusted with the sham going on in DC on both sides of the aisle. We have Wall Street tycoons appearing before the most financially irresponsible body of individuals in the entire country, answering to clowns who are no better that those being accused. We have presidential candidates lecturing the populace about the dangers of living on credit, while our government borrows $2 billion per day. We have politicians promising money that we don't have, and which is growing scarcer by the day. Am I alone in thinking this is all absolute insanity?

Sorry guys, I just have to rant now and then. Now I feel better.;)

Thanks Keith.:)
Every once in awhile, it just boils over. I think it's because I keep the lid on too tight.;)

Disgusted as in you want to vomit watching the corrupt chastise the depraved?

Yeah. I can relate to that.

Did anyone catch the bit where the CFO of Lehman Bro's was whining to Congress about "Where is our rescue package?" Even when he was being grilled about why they gave out $25 billion in executive bonuses right before filing for bankruptcy. GF, you got it right, vomit is the correct verb!
