  1. “Ask Bush I if folks will wait until the second term. Bush I was riding a 92% approval rating in 1991, due to the success of the first gulf war. One year later, add in a lousy economy, and he was shown the door.”

    Ding Ding Ding Ding!!! Beautiful illustration Benson!!!!!!!!!! We don’t agree on much but you hit that one out of the park!!!!!!!!!

    I remember that time Bush 1 went down in flames so damn fast!! In one year he was vaporized!!

    “We’ve been through a period where folks gave both Clinton and Bush II a second shot. During the 70’s, however, one term presidents were the norm (Johnson, Nixon (sort of), Ford and Carter). If this economy is truly as bad as the papers are making it out to be, I’m not sure that folks will give Obama that much time.”

    Most of the people on this board never experienced New York in a bad economic climate! When the start talking about cutting back on police and Fireman watch out!

    The What( But… But.. They told me this neighborhood was safe..)

    Someday this war is gonna end…

  3. “What, Bush got elected a second time despite narrowly beating (or, as many people think, losing to) Gore in 2000 and after the Iraq war was exposed for the invasion it really was.”

    That was Coup d’état and 911 and the Mutant Asset Bubble! American Biff have been asleep for the last 8 years and when the wake up to a depression. they want someone to blame!

    Most people will not accept personal responsibility for their actions, it”s always someone else’s fault.

    “In fact, many are still blaming Clinton for our current woes. Point being, people didn’t seem to turn on him until well into his second term, so I’m not sure why you think supporters will abandon Obama so quickly.”

    Biff now you understand the gravity of this situation! We America is headed into the abyss. Our manufacturing jobs are gone! All we do is sell pieces of paper to one other and call that crap “investing”! America is in some serious trouble and when these economic conditions happens, that’s when the Goose Stepping and The Swastika come out, watch and see…

    The What

    Someday this war is gonna end…

  4. “Biff I disagree with you. When the implosion MAB starts gearing up the sheeple are going to forget who started this mess and beg Obama to do “Something” and when that “Something” doesn’t pan out, they will turn on him so fast it will make your head spin!”

  5. “Dibs – as always, thank you!!!
    solid advice and I agree they might just bite at a 15-20% lower offer”

    Gemini before you glad handle Dave ask yourself some questions. Do you want to buy something in this economic climate? If they accept 15% off now, would the price be lower in a few months? How is my finances? Will I get stuck if I can sell in a few years?

    Just chill out and wait. You will be rewarded…

    The What (But… But… they told me it was worth 2.7 Million….)

    Someday this war is gonna end…
