Way cool!

EC-style caption boxes!

Then eat all the white people.

Okay everybody fears Toxilla, but we all love him really. He is the byproduct of fissionable financial derivatives. He is the truth, the answer, the reconciliation. You can't watch Toxilla die without feeling deep remorse. The only one to reconcile Toxilla is MBSothra, the mortgage backed security giant Moth. MBSthraaaa, MBSthra, ... you know the song okay. Guess who the princesses are? (they got a new dog today)

I even bought your book. Come on, everyone, buy Ruben's book!

A man who cheated on his own taxes now collects and spends - and spends and spends and spends - yours.

Urr!

of his presidency was great.

The economy's beginng to recover. Of course they wouldn't know that since they were too busy co-opting someone elses movement yesterday in the name of the republican party.

Don't worry, we'll pay for that.....Classic

in the second panel, is the toxic asset destroying the automobile (industry) through a credit CRUNCH? Am I putting too much thought into this? (or is Bolling?)

And by the way, is that tea they're drinking in the last panel? Are they having a... TEA PARTY?

Once Tim G gets to securitize them as planned.

The sad truth is that Geithner and the economic team are outside the partisan loop. Obama, Geithner and the rest are continuing TARP, which began under Bush. On things like torture, healthcare, etc., there is some diffrence between the parties. But on this aspect of the economy, you can vote 'conservative' or 'liberal' and you are going to find the same people pulling the strings. That's why the GOP members of congress didn't give him too bad of a time in his confirmation hearings.

...start a war with China! Then how will they make us pay them back, eh?

I smell an 'Evil Secret Plan' here.

Geithner has a point: if you blow it up or shoot it, you wind up with bits of toxin flying everywhere, or pooling in big heaps around the city. It may in fact be better to attempt to civilise it, shrink it down, and wall it off....
