Underemployed, Underinsured.

Any wonder the stock market is having seizures? Here's an interesting bit of reality, and while true, it still ignores some of the more obvious things about BushWorld.

I mean real Class Warfare (pitchforks, torches, etc.). Not this kind.

Get Over It! Just Get Out!

Oops. The word is out tonight! Why not save us some money and just resign now?

Seriously, Mr. Hastert, here's your $180,000 salary for 2008 in advance. I'll say this in language even you can understand:

Elvis Has Left The Building.

I, however, have returned.

The Greatest American Hero.

Perhaps. I know she was mine.

Rest In Eternal Peace, Molly Ivins.
