am up 25%. Mind you neither myself nor my accountant are into close

ROFLMAO!! the right wing thinks obama's been president for the last 8
years...

I guess I should thank democratic congress for screwing up so bad.


like i said...he thinks the dems have run the country for the last 8
years....

i guess to the right wing, bush was a democrat...


Nope, Bush be GOP, but did the democrat congressional budget. Makes me
wonder if they teach the Americans how governent works in DC. Bush nor
Obama dictate the budget, it needs congress for that.

If anything, you can blame democrate congress AND both of Bush and
Obama. Obama did $1.3 trillion debt-corruption-spend in just 8 months
in office! I would not doubt that is an all time recorded even compard
to 9/11.

Starting with Clintons liberalization of bank lending


in a bill authored by the GOP phil gramm and his enron VP
wife....pushin the 'free market' fundamentalism that dominated
economic thinking for the last 30 years.


Might have been, but Clinton being a democrat liberal, cheap loan money
was more important than economic stability.

and compounded by
democratic congress, being the worst debtors in mankinds history. See,
you liberal dimwitts ignore that Bush/obama's budgets all came from a
debt willing congress.


really? the biggest spender in history was george bush, with reagan
not far behind

oh well, i guess the right wing cant count...



It took Bush 8 years with democrat congressional full support for Bush,
Obama on the other hand is accumulation debt 5 times the rate, if not
more. At Obama's rate, he will double the US national debt in under 8
years. By comparison, Bush wasn't that bad.

DC mentality, either party is a debt-corruption mentality. The
depression will not end until it is cleaned up a bit. Society can't
afford the size of government any longer.

and the pres proposes his own budget. the congress does not decide
alone. that's the reality on capitol hill

he did it to rescue the country from the free market fundamentalism of
the GOP congresss from 1980 to the present.

it's sound economics. if you've ever taken an economics course, it's
standard economic theory. if the consumer collapses, SOMEONE has to
step in to take up the slack otherwise the economy collapses

free market fundies raped the middle class and transferred our money
to their pockets. it's why the weathiest 1% own a huge amount of the
wealth in this country

well, no. clinton had a GOP congress and was a wounded president. the

and the collapse of the economy engineered by the GOP over the last 30
years calls for drastic measures.

this is merely a reflection of the destructive path the GOP has forged
with its dedication to making the rich richer

we can't afford the free market fundamentalism of the GOP

Yes, I took a dip just like everyone else, but it was a lifetime
opportunity that has been handed to us by the dimwitt congress. You can
make serious money in turbulant times. ;)

Let's give credit to Carter who started it all with bank loan liberalization
to minorities.


which had zip to do with the crisis


You obviously know little of banking. The whole idea was to avoid
interest rates rising, allowing for government to have cheap debt and
for minorities to get below value loans.

Don't worry, this conservative libertarian picked up on the economic
problems in 2007, I made money on the liberal debtor congress as they
blatently ignored the ABCP and interterest rate inversion. When real
savings rates net of taxes fall below inflation rates, a
recession/depression is a guarantee if it continues. Many of us, eyes
wide open did quite well with this opportunity.

Think, if congress had any integrity and rationality in it, they could
have jacked interest rates and tightened crredt to avoid the economic
meltdown. But being debtor junkies, democrate congress ignored it.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. ? Jack Nicklaus said the fallout over Tiger
Woods' car crash and allegations of extramarital affairs is "none of
my business."

"Our public is pretty forgiving at times," Nicklaus said Thursday.
"Time usually heals all wounds. I think the hardest thing is obviously
his family. That's a private matter for him and his family."

Nicklaus won 18 major championships, the most in golf history. Woods
is second with 14.
That's where society is at. Forgive cheating on the family. Forgive
cheating on American Citizens and our Constitution.
Forgive every immoral or criminal act.
Hell, anything goes. That's the modern Hollywood theme. That's the
liberal thing.


Oh, Alberto Gonzales must've been a liberal. And Dick Cheney and
Scooter Libby and Jack Abramoff and Larry Craig, and Craig Vitter and
Mark Sanford and Mark Foley and golly, there sure are a lot of
liberals in GW Bush's cabinet and circle of friends.

All told, I'd say you haven't a clue what you're talking about...

Just the oposite to you. Both ends are assaulting us the middle.


"That's the liberal thing".
The stupid statement is as "middle" as Fox and CNBS are news.

hmmm....so you say. but there's one problem: i have the evidence. you
have your myths

the largest lender to go belly up was 'countrywide' which was not
subject to CRA rules

so, try again.

great. and the rest of us voted for obama and the democrats to reign
in th free spending ways of the GOP

What is the first thing that the House does with the budget when they
receive it from the president? Throw it on the shelf.
