I have no idea who these two birds are and do not especially care. I think the head of the FDIC is one of the more competent government officials and really doubt she would allow anything underhanded. To put it another way, I would not buy a used care frome either of these jokers.

How about a Vegematic or a ShamWow? The "infomercial" nature of this video left me ignoring it even when I was trying to listen. If somebody were to write about this issue in a concise and cogent manner, I'd read it and try to absorb it. As is, I find myself reaching for the remote, errr ... mouse.

Me too. In addition, the amateurish quality of the video seemed rather contrived. It had all the hallmarks of "astroturf" if you ask me.

Dudes, everyone has seen the fame and fortune that some of these "pundits" and "talk show hosts" have acheived. Everyone wants to jump on the bandwagon. Our country is filling up with flag-draped "Great Americans" who want to expose "the shocking truth".
Interesting times indeed.

Hell, Rob they ain't nuthin' but a bunch of tubes. Actually, Youtube has some pretty funny stuff on it. OTOH, Twitter is an diabolical plot to reduce our mental capacities to what you can fit in 140 characters.
