What a week of bad news! Bridges falling, stock market falling, dollar falling
Foreclosure crisis worsens

record oil prices

dangerous toys manufactured in China

American auto makers no longer make even half of the cars sold in America

The continuing tragedy of our soldiers dying in Iraq

Appointed government Republican employees refuse to testify to our representatives

News that the government is growing at twice the rate as during Clinton. Republicans are anti-government?

News that the national debt has nearly doubled in the 6 years of the bush residency (most of which ended up lining the pockets of crooked cronies).


It took 6 years for Bush to help the country fall to this level. Should we allow him even one more day before we impeach him?

4. Get ready for 1929 part II, Hoover nomics still suck
even if I don't survive the next great depression I sure hope that when the fat republican pricks jump out the windows of the stock market, ABC has a camera crew ready.

6. What has my name got to do with my politics?
After all the pain and suffering these fat cats have caused america, I have 0 empathy for them when its their turn to reap the benefits of what they have sown.

8. It's ok, I'm just sensetive after having to leave another forum
because I was beating up on the repiglicans. Never mind that for the last 7 years thats all I heard from them about democrats and liberals. Or the fact that what I posted was based on truth and their rants on dems were what they heard from Rush limpballs. Actualy I am pretty cheerful considering everything I been through in life. Even when I get my moments of blues, I snap out rather quickly.
