#2 typical Rolling Stone article on non music stuff.

Some facts, a lot of invective, a bit of conspiracy and a story line that is impossible to follow.

#3 I don't know about the typical part. I haven't found an article laying out the problem this well before this one. I for one think that follow the money leads us from the late 90's to present fairly well. The revolution indicated may be more de facto that explicit, but it can't have escaped the notice of the GS types that their nests are feathered well by this situation.

#4 4 paragraphs on the amendments to the Glass Steagall Act of 1998 demonizing former Sen Gramm

not a word about Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac

Its like discussing problems in the Arab world, spending 5 paragraphs demonizing Bush and not mentioning the word "islam"

#5 More Bull from the left.

CRA?
Basal II?
Mark to Market?
Fannie & Freddie (as mentioned)
Barney & Chris?

This is the culmination of the anti-capitalist left gaining control over the Dem party and having enough sleazebag 'pubs to help them.

#6 Darn, I was hoping that Rolling Stone Magazine was being taken over by somebody like The National Review.

Which, you have to admit, would be a hoot.
