    Does anyone have any thoughts on the Justice Department taking a look at the clearing departments of the exchanges? Now they think it is unfair after they have let a couple mergers go through.

    Isn’t that really bad for CME and ICE (in June)?

    Huckacide is even worse than a shoe salesman, he’s a fucking baptist preacher. As Bono of U2 once said in a great song, “I can’t tell the difference between ABC News, Hill Street Blues, and a preacher on The Old Time Gospel Hour – stealing money from the sick and the old.”

    DannyKnob,
    Do you think all those beancounting leaches are going to sit idlely by while their bread and butter gets gutted?
    It won’t happen at this point.
    In reality, only the poor and the poor planners pay high taxes.
    Joe W-2 gets audited more than the guys with the complex LLC’s, etc. Why? It’s easier for the IRS auditors.
    In fact, my tax professional Vinnie Deductada just told me you can depreciate your wife on your return – as long as you don’t get audited.

    Evil Rude is correct about the IRS thing.

    Cap Outlandish Interest Rates on Payday Loans and Improve Disclosure: Obama supports extending a 36 percent interest cap to all Americans. Obama will require lenders to provide clear and simplified information about loan fees, payments and penalties, which is why he’ll require lenders to provide this information during the application process.

    — Short CSH and the other payday lenders? By the way I could post a million of these from Obama.

    Shorting XLF here on this bullshit.

    Short the fucking world, now that it looks like a lock that crypto-commie McCain and the ass-juggler Baptist preacher former fatfuck Hucksterbee are going to head the Republican Ticket.

    Without a doubt the least conservative, most looney pair since — fuck I don’t even know — Hoover, maybe?

    Someone call Walter Mondale! He’s about to be avenged for 1984.

    McCain/Huckster is a great combo. I’ll be secure for life. Neither of those two are financial geniuses….in fact, I’m pretty sure that McCain recently admitted that he doesn’t know much about “that economy thing.”

    Steve, you hit it right on the head.

    It’s amazing that relatively normal conservative people can be “duped” by the Huckster and his bullshit about dissolving the IRS.

    Yeah, and he also wants to “cap” CEO pay. How many other loonie populist freaking ideas does this nut have?

    And can you imagine the field day the media will have with him… they are already referring to him — in every recent piece — as “Baptist Preacher Mike Huckabee.”

    To the MSM, that’s about equivalent to saying “Serial Child Molester Mike Huckabee.”

    But the stupid Southern fucks just don’t get how they are getting played.

    Geezus I wish Romney wasn’t a Mormon.

    I’m as rock ribbed a conservative as you’ll find, but I’m thinking Obama might be the best call here out of those four(if Romney really is dead).

    At least we won’t be getting “Nixoned” with Obama, like we will be with McCain.

    Jake,
    The Mittster is probably the best choice for the Republicans. The fact that he’s a Mormon isn’t too much of a concern for me, unless he starts taking on more wives and having more children.

    That would make Bill’s “blowjobgate” look like a Sunday school meeting (albeit with men standing and women on their knees).

    Mormons are good decent people, for the most part. They’re conservative and focus on the family and values that made the U.S. a great country (which it no longer is).

    Alpha — you misunderstand. I’ve been a Romney fan for a long time. One of my very good friends was a right hand man in the Bain days. Shit, I voted for him against Ted Kennedy when I was still up in Mass.

    The reason I say “I wish he weren’t a Mormon” is because all of these vebelfester Baptist geeks think that’s equivalent to having horns on your head.

    And who can explain Calvin’s response? Do you know how a business operates, Calvin?

    To make money, and that’s what Mitt (and Bain Capital, not Bain Consulting btw) did.

    Gimme a guy who knows how to bank coin over a freaking clown show preacher who plays bass guitar for the gullible masses, or a seriously compromised Manchurian candidate like McCain any day.
