Cue the fireworks in 3...2...1...

• FRIEDEN EUROPEANS CAN'T DO MUCH FOR GREECE BEYOND AGREEMENT - BBG
  
• FRIEDEN: GREECE NEEDS STRUCTURAL REFORMS, SHORT-TERM FINANCING - BBG
  
• FRIEDEN: GREECE HAS HISTORY OF PROBLEMS IMPLEMENTING DECISIONS - BBG

And... drumroll please:

• FRIEDEN SAYS HE WISHES U.S. MORE INVOLVED IN STRENGTHENING IMF - BBG

Translation: Hey America, we've done all we can, now it's your turn to sustain the Ponzi. Because if we go, you go.

The upside: think of just how much faster the latest and gratest $16.4 trillion debt target will be breached if America simply issues Greek bonds with a US guarantee. Like it did in that other foreign policy success story - Egypt.

IOW - US taxpayers cough up again. This is a repeat from 1918, 1945 and all those intervening years.

A clue: No.

One Marshall Plan was enough.....they can go to the Russkies for help for all I care.

Wait....You guys want money from the Bush Cheney Nazi Hitler Country? You guys want money from Israeli Jew Run Government of the US (quote)? You want money from stupid fat lazy warmongering racist Americans?

The minute the Greeks get the drachma back is when the German people start asking for the deutsche mark back.

I want to go to Greece to photograph the Greek ruins. If they have more weekends like the last one I'll have to take pictures of the entire city of Athens.

The last time we made meaningful “structural reforms” to another nation’s economy was when we occupied Germany and Japan after WW2.

Hey-0ccupy Greece! Good food and weather, nice scenery.

(Of course Greeks are not German or Japanese when it comes to work ethic, are they?)

OK: and Ron Paul’s an Idiot for his foreign policy of “Who Cares” what you people do. It’s not Our responsibility.

Where’s all the Ron Paul belongs in a mental hospital folks on this one?

Maybe Obammy could use the real parthenon for his next coronation, instead of importing plastic columns

They want $ from the ‘how can 64 million Americans be so stupid’ crowd, not the 70 million ‘hope and change’ crowd.

Let Greece fail, already!
