"Harry the K" wrote in message news
That's the GOP dream world: no government regulation. It's behind the mess we have on Wall Street and until he flip-flopped earlier this week, it was part of the McCain Doctrine. Also behind Bill Clinton in 1999. There's enough blame to spread around to virtually everybody. While there is plenty of blame, most of it should be layed off against the Republicans, and a lot of that blame should be heaped upon Phil Gramm and his economic acolyte John McCain. It is the Republicans who abhor government regulation, although it has been interesting this week to watch the gang that works so hard to privatize profit work at least as hard to socialize loss. It's kind of funny to be blaming Bill Clinton. Bush has been president for almost eight years, and for six of those years his party controlled congress. During Bush's presidency, there have been plenty of signs the deregulated financial sector was in deep doo-doo and heading for a hard fall. Bush is the head of state. He did nothing. I suspect as the thinking part of the electorate realizes this, the tight polls that at the moment favor McCain will shift. As an aside, I find it fascinating that neither McCain nor Palin will "meet the press" at an open press conference. I suspect it is because McCain doesn't know enough about the economy and how it works to say anything unprompted that won't bite him in the ass. As for Palin, she really is turning out to be a cipher. |

You bitch and moan if you think I am getting personal, and you bitch and moan if I give you a non-personal, reasoned response to one of your posts or responses. |

"Harry the K" wrote in message . .. Holy crap. You sure run a long time on a nickel. Eisboch You're a funny guy. You bitch and moan if you think I am getting personal, and you bitch and moan if I give you a non-personal, reasoned response to one of your posts or responses. Harry, I hate to burst your bubble but I rarely read more than the first sentence or two of your political posts. For the most part, they are all the same, regurgitating the same political spin over and over and over. What makes it worse is it's almost word for word what one hears daily in the media as the political pundits recite the party lines. You need to include a flag or keyword or something to indicate you are posting a new, original thought. I might take the time to read that. Eisboch |

Eisboch Perhaps you ought to stick with Justwaitaloogy and the rest of the heavy thinkers. At least they have new material. A typical post from you reads almost exactly as one you posted an hour ago which is the same as one posted a day ago, which is the same as one posted a week ago. Or a month. Or a year. They are all the same. All that changes is the date and time. Eisboch |
