here’s part of the problem;
-the stimulus package which didn’t stimulate.
-the cash for clunkers program which sent money to Japan instead of the USA.
-the cap and trade/carbon credit bullshit that threatens to derail any long term growth of manufacturing in the US and boosts China and India.
-the absolute lunacy that is the 2000 page healthcare “reform” bill which will end up increasing healthcare expenses and still leaves about 24 million uninsured without any improvement in the quality of healthcare.
we need to elect some common sense back into office next year. Chucky and this unknown junior senator aren’t cutting it.
>>Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck?!
Why not?
Lots of people angry about the washington-wall street bailout partnership are joining their movement. Like I said, anger is blind and irrational, and they are the only anti-establishment group out there providing an outlet for the populist anger.
“If the governmemt uses the taxpayers money and gives it to these banks you should be going after the govenrmentt and your congressman for doing so.”
Washington = Wall Street. I’m talking the few movers and shakers.

“Maybe the next few months will prove me wrong.”
Never have I heard doubt creep in BHO. What gives?
Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck?!
Oy! Hon, you are on the wrong side of the continental divide.
Change in New York Case-Shiller YOY still slightly up. Broke last year’s “winning streak” record. Maybe the next few months will prove me wrong. Probably not (more Lehman type events on the horizon).

>>What the pols should do now is try to get as much of the money back as possible and for heavens sake stop pouring billions a day into Afghanistan and Iraq.
Agreed. What the hell are we still doing in those two countries?? The iraq war alone is costing us a trill dollars, in addition to american lives; and yet we hem and haw over spending the same amount of money on the healthcare bill, which saves american lives??
But Dave aren’t we hearing that if the governemnt had not acted the way they did that the situation would have spun out of control and we would have been facing another Great Depression? What the pols should do now is try to get as much of the money back as possible and for heavens sake stop pouring billions a day into Afghanistan and Iraq.
