Bush has just thrown gasolene on burning coals

[malaise]

Clearly what he wants is panic. The Shock Doctrine is in full force :nuke: :nuke:

[BlooInBloo]

1. Well we're gonna have a Depression on Monday dontchaknow?

[knowbody0]

8. we are used to being depressed

for the last eight years, dangerously depressed

[valerief]

2. He's shooting Naomi Wolf from a helicopter.

[malaise]

4. He's sure promoting Naomi Klein

IMPEACH this lunatic!

[valerief]

9. Yeah, I know Klein wrote Shock Doctrine but Palin shoots wolves and

they're both Naomis, so...

[malaise]

10. LOL

:rofl:

[tekisui]

3. He ignored it at the UN, the rest of the world was pissed.

Tomorrow the market will react to his fear mongering. It's all he knows.

I think 2 four year terms is WAY TOOOO LONG for anyone to be President.

[malaise]

5. He should be arrested

Tonight!

[JohnnyLib2]

6. yup. panic.

Bring back FDR!

[annabanana]

7. Every moment he speaks, he looks and sounds worse to

every thinking human being on Earth.

11. my parents had fdr and i have george bush....

"sorrowful angels weep into their wings"

[SmokingJacket]

12. The rest of the world must be laughing their asses off.

OMG, I would be.

[malaise]

13. Tweety agrees with me

He says people must be at their ATMs or planning to head to their banks in the morning.

[Fire Walk With Me]

14. Gotta break some eggs if you want to make an ommelette.

One with republican and neocon chefs.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

15. I almost thought he was going to talk about mushroom clouds again

I find it strange that several Republican talking heads were talking about this economic situation as a Pearl Harbor event. Isn't that how the PNAC described the event that would trigger their opportunity to implement their plans for the world?

[malaise]

16. The economic Iraq War Resolution

The Patriot Act, FISA, etc. etc.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

17. Bush wasn't talking this way just one week ago

Here's what he said in a Rose Garden speech just one week ago, when he refused to bail out Lehman Brothers:

"But in the long run I am confident that our capital markets are flexible and resilient and can deal with these adjustments."

What happened in one week? Last week this economic situation was a mere "adjustment" and the markets were "flexible and resilient". Last week he was talking about "the long run". This week there's an urgent and desperate need to address the economic situation without delay and without allowing time for further debate. What happened?

[malaise]

18. Either Bush has been lying since his State of the Union address

or this is another power grab. He can choose which is correct.

Either way, this is the result of that panic, panic, panic speech. Even Tweety is worried about the tone of that speech.

19. The choice of language you are right

happy I got my canned goods

I expect panic soon

Though to his credit, (or rather that of the writer) they tried to 'splain some of this... even derivatives.... but did a lousy job the crayons
