Tune in to Boston's Talk Evolution 96.9 WTKK on Saturday, September 27 from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. I will be guest hosting once again for the wonderful and talented crime writer Michelle McPhee. There is, thankfully, no dearth of topics to discuss, from John McCain's dramatic suspension of his campaign, to Friday night's presidential debate--presuming it happens--to the $700 billion reverse bank robbery. Listen live here.

I hope you talk about the arrogance and disservice rendered by our representative from the 4th Massachusetts Congressional district and how he should be walked out in an orange jumpsuit in handcuffs for his part in the F&F mess.

Care much for Dennis Lehane (Mystic River) whose new novel (The Given Day) just hit bookstores?

Consider the Herbie Moses / Fannie Mae connection. Interested in how he got a good job at an agency where he made loan instrument policy.

"the $700 billion reverse bank robbery."

What a great line.

Not only do the Dem snakes in Congress want to allocate our money to support white collar deadbeats but they want to add pork for such groups as La Raza and ACORN.

Now the ultra-arrogant Chris Dodd sees more piggy bank in the bail out….From Tom Macquire:

“And his insight on the housing slush fund is an eye-opener -- the original Dodd language called for 20% of the profit on each sale to be diverted to the Dem slush fund; this is far different from 20% of *net* profits. In a net profit scenario, losses on some sales would offset gains on others. Under Dodd, any profit is immediately subject to diversion, regardless of whether there are other, greater losses. That is not taxpayer protection.”

If anybody believed there would ever be pay back for the taxpayer, they’re on acid. Obama will love spending this money.

Orange jump suits, shackles all around! In any other body, these people would be criminals.

Outside of blatant Democratic incompetence, can anybody explain how it took the thieves in Congress just three days to jam a bill through that spends another $700 Billion of our money, but just last month, the Dems couldn’t (read: refused) come up with a crucial energy bill? And the same Speaker who yesterday said that the bail out bill is really a “buy in” bill told her House member to go on vacation.
