1. I would say perfect timing. Or an omen.

Freddie is not looking real healthy these days.

2. The Economist predicts the housing market is heading toward a bust

The System Works.

[Fixated]

3. ...

The Economist aren't the only ones...there's a book written on the crash somewhere.

6. Omen, yeah, creepy isn't it?

That's a weird one.

4. This is great!

Talk about irony. I keep trying to figure out how the blackout will benefit the pugs. Have heard a lot of speculation, but still do not have enough information to even guess.

5. Its already started

There has been talk by Spencer Abraham (Dept. of Energy?)that the Grid needs major work (No shit Sherlock!) and that taxpayer should be involved in upgrading it. So private companies, and no doubt major republican donors, will get their infrastructure rebuilt courtesy of taxpayers like us.

9. Yep.

And maybe throw in a sprinkling of oil rigs in the ANWR.

7. So when did it run? Thursday?

If it was after they could have done it on purpose.

14. I don't know exactly. The site says it ran "today" but I first saw it

ther yesterday and they're on an extended vacation. Must have run after the blackout though.

8. The System Works!

Except when it doesn't.

10. How Ironic given that Freddie Mac is being investigated

So NEITHER system works...

[CO Liberal]

11. Uh, Isn't That The World Trade Center on the Right Side of That Photo?

It seems a bit dated.............

[leftofthedial]

12. you're right

I didn't notice that.

[grasswire]

13. what a gaffe!

I wonder what genius developed that ad.
