This blog is dedicated to Bob O'Brien's Sanity Check editorials, and discussions about the Market Reform Movement, the SEC, failing to deliver/naked shorting, etc. It was created so that his many detractors and fans can tell him that he is full of it, correct his mistakes, rant and rave, kowtow, preen, or whatever seems appropriate. The only sins are being boring, or inarticulate, or dim. Humorous pieces can be found in the new Funny Bunny Blog area above, for a lighter-hearted take on being a bunny. Older Bobo blogs can be viewed by selecting a month under the calendar to your right. http://www.thesanitycheck.com/BobsSanityCheckBlog/tabid/56/BlogId/1/Default.aspx en-US admin@thesanitycheck.com Fri, 21 Nov 2008 01:12:03 GMT Fri, 21 Nov 2008 01:12:03 GMT http://backend.userland.com/rss Blog RSS Generator Version 3.2.0.29758 As predicted, the bailout was approved under completely false and misleading terms - so much for the, "We'll make money on the deal" blather from the hired pundits.
