    McCain picked Sarah instead of Romney. She knows more about the economy....so why is she avoiding the cameras?
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    Bush is working on the economy? I thought he missed the RNC Convention to take out Hurricane Ike and clean up the little mess. WTF?



    Now we're told that he's been working on the economy.

    Bush is busily converting his assets into Euros and planning his escape from the country. That's how he's "working on the economy."
  • brb915 · 1 year ago
    no he's gonna bury it under the bush library

    "Capacity" - leveraged imaginary money created with Phil Gramm's Enron Loophole.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    We need to see all the legislation that John McCain has introduced in order to avert this.

    It has to be thousands and thousands of pages.


    I'm learning that the Dollar ain't worth shit anymore.
  • 1970cs · 1 year ago
    Raising the American debt by 7 trillion bailing out Freddie/Fannie to a total 15 trillion debt, makes the dollar not worth the paper it's printed on.

    Ken Lay was a firm believer in this type of economics.

    Ken Lay helped write all the energy laws that Cheney is keeping secret.

    Where the fuck is Pelosi?

    What could sarah sell at a loss to fix this mess?

    my personal economy has been in the toilet since the year 2000, literally. If I'd have know just how much damage W. could do I would have done some things differently, but I was spoiled by the Clinton years and really believed things were only going to get better and better. It really creeps me out to think that for people in their twenties who are financially independent this wrecked economy and perpetual illegal war is all they've ever known...dismal.

    Anyhow, here is 36 seconds of sanity, the "Women Reject Palin" protest in Anchorage that was a counter-protest to the one the Palinazis held earlier that day. The estimate was 1400 people, when they were only expecting a few hundred (this was posted on Huffpo, but I wanted to share it because it's a few brief seconds of feel-good.

    Isn't the DOW rigged so people can't bail as fast as they once could?

    Wasn't something implemented after 9/11?

    McCain has answers that Paulson doesn't. Paulson doesn't see a bottom and McCain does. Why isn't The Press asking him about it?
  • dad · 1 year ago
    its a secret BB. you have to elect him to find out.
    just like how he's going to capture osama bin laden.

    seriously. he has no idea.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    You may be right. If my wife was worth $100 Billion, I'd hire somebody to find bim Laden....but only if troop deaths were bothering me.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    Is it just me or is Congress doing everything but addressing this problem?

    I hope it finds time on the Calendar eventually.

    "strong, very strong"

    McCain said very strong......

    How come I haven't heard that quoted?

    McCain actually said "very" strong.
  • dad · 1 year ago
    when mccain lies he likes to put very in front of it.
    makes it a strong lie. a maverlie.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    Either he'll say VERY or just stare at her ass for an additional 10 seconds.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    Problems like this is Sarah Palin's specialty.

    She once sold a jet on ebay at a half-million Dollar loss and charged me to have Levi flown in so I'd know who's cramming himseld in Bristol.

    Now that's fucked up. She needs to find a camera.

    "Sen. John McCain praised the Fed and the Treasury for avoiding engaging in a bailout of Wall Street, blaming the Lehman collapse on "ineffective regulation and management.""

    ---

    umm... aren't neocons against federal regulation to begin with??

    what caused the mortgage/credit crash anyway??

    cutting regulation in the credit industry maybe?

    yup, this is the GOP's "smaller government" at work folks.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    He had a chance and just said "NO"!

  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    that's the other thing... john mcsame's comment on "ineffective regulation and management."??

    HE was head of the Financial Services Committee during may of the republican Congressional years!!!

    ineffective regulation?? yeah, here's a clue mcsame... REGULATING THE INDUSTRY THROUGH LEGISLATION WAS YOUR FUCKING JOB FOR YEARS!!!!

    GOP=blameless
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    I'm not ignoring you, I've been listening to sarah Palin.

    She just said that she won't bail out the CEO's that break the public's trust.

    Doesn't that mean that they want these people to melt down quietly?

    It sounds like Bush's attitutude when he learned that the cameras were in New Orleans for a week after Hurricane Katrina.

    That's when Bush said that he just wanted people to keep expectations low.

    Does sarah know that we're presently watching Wall Street melt down?

    She seems to find cameras and nobody wants to ask a question.
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    No wonder Rove aknowledged McCain's lying...now McCain can say he's gonna fix the Bush Economy and it'll be the truth.

    He knows how to get bin Laden too, but we have to hire him first. He's a former POW and he wants ransom?
  • BLOGGING BITCH! · 1 year ago
    What's Sarah's stance on DIVORCE?

    Is it a sin like Abortion?
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    I wonder... does the Catholic church still sell indulgences?

    ...and could you use an indulgence for an abortion?
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    when the DOW drops below 10,000..... will mcsame still be saying the economy is strong?

    we're headed there... hopefully anyone sitting on the fence between Obama and mcsame is seeing this.

    mcsame policy is MORE OF THE SAME.

    tell it to Caribou Barbie, honey, she's been in office that long as well.

    now you go take your meds and have a nice lie-down!
  • DCinDC · 1 year ago
    Man, with a little research one can see how just how involved John McCain and Phil Gramm are the lead players in this financial mess.
