Yeah, I'm going to listen to him...


So, smarmy little munchkin Robert Reich (shown here with a normal sized human) has an article in Salon titled "The politics of an economic nightmare.
No U.S. leader wants to admit how bad the damage may get from the one-two punch of the credit crunch and housing slump
."
.
Forgive me for not investing a lot of credit into what the leader of the lollipop league has to say. You see Mr. Reich is no Mr. Right. Mr. Reich was the chief advisor to Chuck Prince, now disgraced ex-CEO of Citibank. Mr. Reich's fabulous advice helped our stock soar from the high-40s, up to almost 50 over the course of 5 years - and then down to 25 over the course of 5 minutes. That's five years of great advice MiniMe.
.
It's a little late now for him to be blaming everyone else when, in fact, Citibank lost billions of dollars in this one and same "credit crunch and housing slump". I understand hindsight is 20/20 but don't you think it is a little smarmy to be writing articles now on how people aren't taking it seriously enough. That's like Custer writing an article about how the "Indian Problem" is mroe serious than most people understand. Only the Indians killed Custer (humm... there's a thought).
.
Maybe I am being a little personal, but the Kebler Elf pictured here is at least partially responsible for a lot of MY BONUS stock being worth less than 1/2 of what it was when it was awarded to me. When he cracks open his wallet with those fat little fingers and helps me with the cash I lost, then he can lecture me. Until then he should, at the very least, shut the hell up.
