Republican... SOCIALISTS??!!

Seriously. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) has proposed a "Swedish like" solution to the financial catastrophe. OK, so does this sound too good to be true? Are Republicans now better on the economy than Democrats?

Doubt it. After all, they still don't want "mark to market accounting" that would ensure that we the people don't overpay for the banks' toxic assets. Oh yes, and they're still avoiding the one solution that can actually solve the problem, temporary nationalization.

So there you have it, Republicans only support socialism when it's "socialism for the socialites" that's bought & paid for by us poor plebes.
