Anderson Cooper lists Phil Gramm has one of the 10 who caused the collapse... |

Anderson Cooper just listed Phil Gramm on CNN's 360. While he certainly belongs at the top of the list, I was a little surprised that CNN went there. It wouldn't surprise me to see Obama take advantage of this, and perhaps mention it on Wednesday's debate. :)

9. I can just hear Obama commenting on this..."Even CNN lists McCain's chief economic advisor as... |
|
one of the top 10 worst people who brought the country to this calamity...."

12. I would not be surprised |
|
to see Obama turn up on this list somewhere - not because he belongs there, but because CNN in recent days has shown that they will go to ridiculous lengths to help McCain.

14. Phil should have poured more ¢a$h into TRUCK STOP WOMEN! |
|
Oh, if Phil Gramm had only poured another $10,000 into Truck Stop Women, he would have become a successful porno producer and never gotten into politics :cry:

15. That's funny... he isn't on the Rethug Party's List |
|
Their list of who caused the financial collapse reads something like this:
10. Barack Obama (of course) 9. Michael Moore 8. Saddam Hussein 7. Bill Ayers 6. Oliver Stone 5. Community Organizers 4. Cheech and Chong 3. Every American citizen who isn't white, Protestant and wealthy 2. Bill Clinton 1. Bill Clinton's Penis
