I think F and F were very problematic and Frank seemed to definitely be in middle of it but seriously, you need to go read up on things a bit more. There's a rest of that story.

There's a shitload of blame to go around for the economic mess we're in. Anyone trying to blame it on a single person or entity is full of horseshit.

You know, D, I refuse to believe that you actually support Obama and think he should be President. I know you jerk chains a lot. But I just can't believe you are "for real" in those terms. No way.

Did you even vote for him the first time? Tell the truth now. I mean, what kind of person with an ounce of sense would've voted for him the first time given that there was absolutely no reason to think he was even remotely qualified for the job?
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Agreed. Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Robert Rubin, Alan Grenspan etc. But at the core, if you had to name one person, I still think it goes back to Ayn Rand.

Part of the problem might be that we have the elite meeting secretly with our government officials (illegal, under the Logan Act) setting our policy, and figuring out ways to make themselves richer, while screwing over the rest of us..

The mainstream media won't report on Bohemian Grove- Reason: They sold us out.

Keeping people in the dark about this stuff isn't good for our country, that's for sure.. most Americans have no clue.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

Bush, Obama and McCain all supported the ride we are on, and it's in coasting mode right now.

FYI, if you are coasting, you are heading downhill. :nod:

Yeah, anyone who votes for an African-American or Latino Conservative is a racist.

Crazy lib definitions.

It was headed over a cliff, and the actions the gov't took prevented it from doing that, like it or not.

They just want it back so they can all fatten their wallets again, and ruin the economy some more. You can't expect these conks to go eight years without their graft, four years is long enough!

I voted for Obama. After 8 years of Bush, we didn't need McCain to come in and continue the failed policies.

However, Obama has lied to us. He lied to me.

It was a cyclical downturn that was going to happen at some point regardless of who was President and what their policies were. Government policies like loosening banking/investment regulations (Conk), tax reductions while at war (Conk) and loosening home mortgage regulations (both) made the downturn much worse. Obama has done nothing that has had a significant positive impact on the downturn.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

Gauging by the inability of Obama to fix the economy, it is time for a different type of hope and change...

I agree. I do think Obama's (and Bush's) actions regarding the stimulus may have had a slight positive effect, I also think McCain would have done the same things.
