Basket Case
The federal government (read the Pelosi/Reid lunatic ward) has just allocated $200 million to bail out the NBA. Are we f…ing crazy? We give this corrupt “Show Me the Money” organization our hard-earned tax money so that their million-dollar, gold-brick players can get more tattoos and wear more bling-bling? Perhaps we should just cede our government to Donald Trump or Bernard Madoff and get it over with?

There is a question as to the veracity of this story which I heard on "Imus in the Morning" this AM. I can find on the internet a reference to Citigroup possibly giving the NBA a $200 million loan. If the taxpayers give Citigroup $10s of billions and then it turns around and lends the NBA $200 million ... what difference does it make?
At least two problems here: (1) loaning money is REAL different from being bailed out or given money, and (2) if you want transparency to the point of deciding who gets loans, you favor complete nationaliztion of the banks.
