1. wonder who wrote his copy?
Fred *the HACK actor* Thompson, trying to set himself up for another try at office? He'd better dump the chunky skanklet he married - gotta work on that image, dude.

8. republican economic theory?
it seems we have a republican sponsored bailout strategy at work. Thompson is satirizing it. (though to be sure, the Dems have followed along faithfully)

but it's not dem vs repug debate, it is keynesian vs. austrian.

5. He is playing the role of a "supremely wise person"......
like a B actor plays the role of a doctor on Marcus Welby.

7. The whole damn thing is true!!!
Does anybody really think that blowing a new bubble will fix the problem with today's economy? (the problem being that the latest bubble has burst)
