Washington Mutual "just say yes" motto
Saying Yes, WaMu Built Empire on Shaky LoanswritePost();new_york_times:http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/28/business/28wamu.html [Photo][Photo]
By PETER S. GOODMAN and GRETCHEN MORGENSON Published: December 27, 2008 “We hope to do to this industry what Wal-Mart did to theirs, Starbucks did to theirs, Costco did to theirs and Lowe’s-Home Depot did to their industry. And I think if we’ve done our job, five years from now you’re not going to call us a bank.”
“It was just disheartening,” said Sherri Zaback, a mortgage screener for Washington Mutual. “Just spit it out and get it done. That’s they wanted us to do. Garbage in, garbage out.” The Reckoning Mortgage Factory Articles in this series have explored the causes of the financial crisis.

Ann Coulter really is a stupid bitch
Ann Coulter insults disabled Vietnam vet. Read on
Eight months later, Coulter's relationship with MSNBC ended permanently after she tangled with a disabled Vietnam veteran on the air. Robert Muller, co-founder of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, asserted that "in 90% of the cases that U.S. soldiers got blown up in Vietnam—Ann, are you listening—they were our own mines." Coulter, who found Muller's statement laughable, averted her eyes and responded sarcastically: "No wonder you guys lost."
