Economic Round Table Discussion
Seattlest gathered the top economic writers in the country and asked them to discuss the ramifications of the $819 billion economic recovery plan.
Seattlest: Do you think the economic impact will be…
Tom (Wall Street Journal): You guys, this couple in Oregon just got arrested for training their dog to have sex with people!
Jeff (CNBC): I like that the lead paragraph takes the time to mention the dog was a German Shepherd mix.
John (The Economist): If the dog's a mix, you must acquit. We lose the rhyme, but the jury will get it.
David (Forbes.com): They also give the dog's name. Really.
Luke (NPR’s Marketplace): I think we're all missing the point here . . . These two people weren't even married!!!???
Tom: They trained a dog to have sex with people!
Luke: One of the comments brings up a good point: The couple gets 60 days in jail and the dog gets killed? The victim gets a death sentence and the perpetrators get 60 days in jail?
Mark (Bloomberg News): I can't believe they killed Max! Who's the cruel one, the owners who taught Max how to love, or the authorities that took his life?
Luke: I also love the idea that they killed Max because he had learned an inappropriate way to associate with people. Like he would go to a foster home and just expect blow jobs.
Jeff: Or give them. Seriously? What's wrong with that? DOGS LIKE DOING THAT.
Luke: If you go to jail for this and you have the stereotypical, "What are you in for?" conversation, do you tell the truth? I mean, you can't can you?
Jeff: Am I wrong or did the article describe that one of the people received anal sex from the dog? I mean, my dog used to shake hands. I thought that was pretty impressive. That's some good training.
And, while I'm at it--should I be depressed that a dog is getting to have more anal sex with women than me?
Luke: How did they even find out about this? Was a cop in Oregon just, you know, surfing bestiality sites one day and then, BLAMMO, "Hey, that dog looks familiar?" Or, "I think that guy lives in my neighborhood?"
David: The dog was wearing a wire.
Jeff: Guys in van huddled listening, "We are definitely being fucked by a dog."
Tom: And then "gllllaaaagggraggglllaggggleaaagggle,” which is the dog's cock in their mouth.
Luke: All of this detail, and there's no mention of the dog finishing.
Ryan (CNNMoney): I love you guys.
Mark: If you really loved us, you'd train a dog to suck our dicks.
Seattlest: Thank you for your time.
