Josh Marshall needs some bigger balls


Why is Josh such a pussy?  Instead of dancing around the subject he should just name names and say which banking CEOs he wants ousted! Why does he bring up the subject but then not close the loop?  Maybe it's because he went to Princeton and Brown and I just went to a state-school.  So I clearly don't get his intellectual points.

Here's what he said - "Why is Rick Wagoner getting the boot while the management of the big banks remains in place? Whatever resonance the question has on first blush, it gets more complicated on further inspection. Citi does not have the same CEO it did at the start of the crisis. And the government installed a new CEO at AIG after the initial bailout. Another rejoinder might be that the automakers' plight is of a much more longstanding vintage than that of the finance barons, though I suspect, as we learn more, we'll be revisiting those assumptions. And even after getting substantial government aid, I think Wagoner's the first auto industry CEO to get the boot. So perhaps we should be asking why it is that something like this hasn't happened sooner.

All that said, though, after that meeting of the major bank CEOs at the White House last week, it's hard for me not to think that, for all that has happened, their clout in Washington is just on a scale where they are accepted as peers of the realm. And simply immune to certain sorts of treatment.

--Josh Marshall"


C'mon Josh - show some sack.  Maybe you should try to interview them first before you just spout about their "clout".  Did you do any due diligence before writing this?

Scientists say the Sun is 93 million miles from the Earth and it is very hot.

Scientists also say that with the Earth's rotation, the Sun rises in the East and will in all probability, set in the west.

And it is a given that the Banking industry has clout in DC, interviews or no.

I can understand why you have a hard time following Marshall's intellectual points; but it has nothing to do with the "state school" you attended.

I think the jealously goes deeper than that. I think he secretly has non-existent man parts and so turns his envy to complaining about the sizes of others. :P

This is crap. Did you think more people would read it because you insulted the founder of the website?

You couldn't hold Josh Marshall's jock, and he shows alot more class than I would by allowing this shitsmear to be posted.

He can blast members of Congress and members of industry but I can't blast him? He has as much class as Bill O'Reilly. And that's not saying much. If he had any class he'd actually try to be a real journalist instead of just a blogger like us.
