Raise The Roof!

We need a new roof.

We have not had a real raise in three years.

We cannot afford a new roof.

So, we might liquidate some of those retirement equities those ads during golf tournaments are always going on about.  You know, "JT Moneybags, Inc, Ltd, can make it so that you own a vineyard and eat Cialis by the handfull in your matching tubs with a wife that looks suspiciously younger than you."

Anyway, after reading about the latest GOP blustering about refusing to raise ANY revenues as part of the debt ceiling negotiations, I'm thinking maybe I should transfer all of my holdings into Greek Drachmas or Russian Facebook or maybe give it to a Nigerian who needs help, but can pay me later.

When Glenn Beck was shilling for that "We buy gold!" company because Obama was gonna be all Soshalust on your ass and you needed to stockpile guns, gold and canned foods, turns out he was on to something.

Of course, he was wrong about the cause, because he's Glenn Beck.

Obama isn't out to destroy the American economy and way of life.

Mitch McConnell is.

UPDATE: Mark Zandi weighs in here.
