Bailout deal ... NOT!

This is not a reaction that instills confidence! The legacy he's leaving... trillions in debt, a never ending war, 4000+ dead and now... His own party failed to follow his wishes. His own nominee running for his job failed to persuade them. His speech to the American Public, forget about it!

The irony, the Democrats voted FOR it! McCain failed his first test and George W. just failed his last.

As Chicken Little said... well you get the picture.

*EDIT* After carefully reviewing Nancy Pelosi's pre-vote speech... shame on her! She too can share the blame. This was to be NON Partisan!

Tentacles, trillions & talking heads

I hate to admit this... I'm choking on the words... My fingers are cramping typing this... I agree with George W. There, I've said and I'm still breathing. As I said 9 long days ago; the financial world, our day to day living, Wall St. and one of, if not the, biggest companies in the world ... will never be the same. At least, I hope never be the same.

Whoever wrote the speech for Georgie, done himself proud. Whoever did his makeup, Michie would like to point out, less blush next time ok?

I still, however, disagree with the falsely low interest rates, keeping the easy level of available credit... available and protecting $25,000.00 a year earning, $300,000.00 home owning folks! Seriously, what were you thinking? I suppose having $2,000,000.00 a year earning folks telling you you could have it might be some kind of excuse but you must have one or two brain cells! You still owe me, and everyone like me, who actually live within their means an apology. We will be paying this off for you, for a long, long time. And I, for one am pissed!

Party like it's 1929!

The bear has gone bull hunting and appears to be winning! I read a comment this morning, I wish I could remember where, it was a reader's comment on one of the news stories and I'd love to give proper credit for it but cannot find it again! "The US economy is fueled by $25,000.00 a year earning WalMart shoppers driving gas guzzling SUV's, who've been told that they qualify to purchase $300,000.00 houses." I think that about sums it up!
