Marching though Georgia
“The problem of this war consists in the awful fact that the present class of men who rule the South must be killed outright rather than in the conquest of territory.” You people of the South don’t know what you are doing. This country will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it …

$6 Trillion Scam
Everything so far has been a bad deal. Put restrictions on the types and size of the Businesses being bailed out? They will ignore them. Get money for the Post Office?

Cartnoon
Ok, in case you’re confused, Butt-Head was the smart one (well, by comparison) with the dark hair and Bevis was the Blonde Haired Maniac who transformed into Cornholio by putting his T-Shirt Collar over his Head and chanted Fire, FIRE!, FIRE!!! on random occasions. Not that my inner Boy Scout is anything like that. I …
