Happy Halloween

This may sound stupid, but I forgot how much I like Halloween. Seriously though, there's something about all of the B class horror movies and grown men dressing up in some crazy costume that just makes this such an awesome holliday. The holliday is all about fun, there's no grand meaning behind it (Not that meaning is bad), just an excuse to have a good time. The history of Halloween is also pretty interesting, but I won't bore everyone with a history lesson.

I even like the whole "haunted house", bit. Luckily we've been told that some of the nations best and scariest are in the area so we are planning on hitting some up with some friends and try and get into the spirit of things.

Now a bit of CAS business (Citizens Against Stupidity).

Our subject study is non other than Gov. Sarah Palin. Like a said in my first blog, this is a non-partisan group, it just goes to show how deep this sickness goes.

The following is the transcript from the Couric/Palin interview.

COURIC: Why isn’t it better, Governor Palin, to spend $700 billion helping middle-class families struggling with health care, housing, gas and groceries? Allow them to spend more and put more money into the economy? Instead of helping these big financial institutions that played a role in creating this mess?

PALIN: That’s why I say, I like ever American I’m speaking with were ill about this position that we have been put in where it is the tax payers looking to bailout.
But ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up the economy– Helping the — Oh, it’s got to be about job creation too. Shoring up our economy and putting it back on the right track. So health care reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions and tax relief for Americas.

And trade we’ve got to see trade as opportunity, not as a competitive scary thing. But 1 in 5 jobs being created in the trade sector today. We’ve got to look at that as more opportunity. ALl those things under the umbrella of job creation. This bailout is a part of that.

Thank you very much Gov Palin for such a descriptive explanition to a rather direct, on the point question. Health care reform and scary trade deals were all very helpful in explaining why this bailout went to save Wall Street. It all makes perfect sense now! What was the name of that other guy who was up for the Veep job? Maybe it's time to give him a call.
