Rocky Mountain News in Denver.
Half of those hits at Daily Kos were probably conservatives seeking ironic humor, I'll wager.

In hindsight, I should have been more skeptical of the housing bubble. Perhaps in hindsight, Mr. O'Reilly should have read at least one book about bubbles and their disastrous consequences. Dr. Charles MacKay's classic Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds has been available for over a century --- he could find a copy at Amazon or you can download for free from Project Gutenberg. Many other books, including the well-written and highly appropriate The Moneymaker by Janet Gleeson, have also been published more recently.
Every time the cry is "Oh, this bubble is different!" No, they are all the same: the bigger the bubble, the bigger the bust. This bubble was vast, so now we are trying to navigate through what could be very turbulent waters, and unfortunately the captain and the crew are dangerously ignorant and incompetent.

I think it's fair to say that this brutal economic downturn took most Americans by surprise. It certainly shocked me. Even though I'm a journalist, I had no idea that mortgage companies were gaming the system by bundling risky loans and selling them to dunces at Lehman Brothers. I was clueless. In hindsight, I should have been more skeptical of the housing bubble.Bill, you pinhead...you forgot to mention how the federal government invited private lenders into this fiasco, instigating, aiding and abetting the entire disaster. Probably just an oversight on your part.

Ted O'Baxter should just STFU until he tells the truth about the lies he told about FReeRepublic.
Until then, he is a liar, a fraud, and a coward who is hiding under his desk (as he claims others are doing when they duck HIS questions).

Obama-loving website Daily Kos have declined a whopping 73 percent since last fall -- a disaster. What's going on?
They are happy!

Hopefully, the trend of failed socialist media will continue.

MSM - Don't worry about the wet feeling on your leg. It's only rain.
Fox News - It ain't rain by a long shot.

I hate Obama. But, when I talk to people, I don't rant about how much I hate Obama. I spell out WHAT HE IS DOING to the country, our lives, our liberties, our freedoms. I talk about WHAT HE IS DOING. Not him. Screw him. It is the policies that are going to kill us. Defeat the policies and you defeat the pig.
