The Speech That Killed Wall Street

By now, you have surely heard about the “partisan” speech by Nancy Pelosi on the House floor before the bailout vote…

“Honey…Short AAPL on the 2nd day after the Rapture…”

Let me just make sure I comprehended this correctly…

The guy who started this site was sitting there trading stocks online in 1999… And it occurred to him that, once HE’s raptured, his heathen wife will be left behind. (!?!)

So, she’s gonna need log-in instructions for short-selling AAPL before the crash that’s about 9 months away…

Maybe I misread something?

Scott McClellan’s new kiss and tell memoir is the talk of the town. And it ain’t pretty for poor ole Scott.

You have to admire, at least a little, the fact that he KNEW they were going to ballistic on him the minute this dropped. Maybe I’ve just always pitied the pudgy bastard…
