SocraticGadfly: My professional take on the bailout — ‘billions blown daily’

My professional take on the bailout — ‘billions blown daily’

In my newspaper column this week, I offer my take on the bailout we really need, starting with a bit of snark that the Federal Reserve could riff on McDonald’s slogan with the “billions blown daily” line.

From there, it goes into specifics, including saying somebody should ask Attorney General Mike Mukasey to appoint a special prosecutor in this whole mess. (Wouldn’t that make Paulson and Wall Street crap their collective pants?)

And, I add that the public is probably getting about what it should expect from Democrats and no more, including noting for public consumption this is why I’ll be voting Green again.

Anyway, here’s my full take.

And, NO, I ain’t euphemizing it as a “rescue.”
