Why am I laughing?

Trenchant commentary on the bailout:

[W]hen estimating the value of your 1997 limited edition Hanson single CD "MMMbop", it's not what you can sell these items for that matters, it's what you think they are worth. The fact that you think they are worth more than anyone will buy them for is what makes them bad assets.

Trenchant, and obscene, too. (Via Michelle Malkin.)
