Money quote:

"These guys at these companies were on a Sherman's March through their companies financed by our 401Ks... And they burned the fucking house down with our money and walked away rich as hell and you guys knew that that was going on."

Why on earth does it take a Jewish ex-stand-up comic from Jersey to say this?

Come back, Zbiggy, all is forgiven

Can we please have more of this on Morning Schmoe (™ DCap)?

Zbiggy to Schmoe: "Zbig to Joe: "You have a such stunningly superficial knowledge of what went on it's almost embarrassing to listen to you."

And this differs from Schmoe's average day.....how?

Quote of the Day

"You people are really nuts...There’s kids dying in the war, the price of oil right now — there’s better things in this world to be thinking about than who served Hillary Clinton at Maid-Rite and who got a tip and who didn’t get a tip." -- Maid's Rite Diner waitress Anita Esterday, to a reporter, commenting on Tipgate.

Esterday is one of those "uniquely American" people who has to work two or three jobs just to pay the bills.
