    The largest annual delcine since 1946 - 2009 was the culmination of the principals and policies of the Republican party in rewarding themselves over leading the nation under conditions of fiscal responsibility.

    One can only wonder what the American people do not understand about the immediate past other than their indifference to its outcome as more important than being responsible for genuine solutions.

    Democrats are full of solutions. Take the liberal 9th circuit court of appeals that just struck down the requirement that voters present proof of citizenship in order to register to vote in Arizona. After all, there is a problem. Every last Democrat in Arizona who piped up against AB1070 is being voted out of office. We cant have that.

    The solution is to change the law to allow anyone willing to swear under oath that they are a citizenship on a written mail in form to vote. God knows no Illegal alien would ever lie on such a document, just ask Meg Whitman's maid.

    In other news, five illegals in a stolen pickup truck accosted an Arizona Department of Public Safety employee the other day, slapped him in the face, stole his car, and drove off into the desert. It also appears the cartels are now beheading people in the Arizona, aside from the kidnapping and hostage taking operations they already run.

    Like I said, the Democrats are full of solutions. They just aren't working on the same problems as the rest of us.

    Bush Tried to Reign in Fannie and Freddy: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123137220550562585.html

    In 2004, 76 Democrats actually asked President Bush not to manage Fannie Mae responsibly.

    They include not only Frank, current chairman of the House Banking Committee; but Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., now being probed for reportedly laundering TARP money in her husband's bank; and erstwhile House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., who is charged with more than a dozen counts of violating House rules and federal laws.

    http://www.redstate.com/moe_lane/2010/09/08/democratic-hypocrisy-on-fannie-maefreddie-mac/

    BTW, here is a copy of the letter:

    http://www.redstate.com/moe_lane/files/2010/09/economic-reality.pdf

    Take a look at the first person to sign it. Barney Frank.

    Take a look at the second signature. Nancy Pelosi.

    These assholes sent Bush a letter in 2004 begging him not to take action against Fannie and Freddie. Later they will claim it was Bush that did nothing.

    And HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!

    UNBELIEVABLE.

    This is about the 10th time someone has recommended this book. Let me be the 11th. "How to Make Money in Stocks" by William O'Neil is really the only good book on the subject.

    Or visit and register for the Investor's Business Daily website. There's a five-year old glitch on their site (refresh bug) that allows you to see all the premium content even if you haven't paid for it.

    My business is Semiconductors and I know the business better than most. My colleagues and I have to laugh whenever I see stock tips from CNBC or financial newspapers on semiconductor companies, because when it comes to my industry they don't know what they are talking about.

    to continue tax cuts as the debt grows by $100 billion a month and not have the will to cut spending is "demagoguery."


    The Republicans are excellent at padding their own pockets while ignoring the realities of everyday life and or blaming others for their maleficences however the actual reality of their policies and principals now approximates a 100 billion dollar deficit per month.

    For the liberals who's past tenure balanced the budget and began paying down the deficit and presently thwarted a Depression the hypocritical demagoguery of Republicans is at an end irregardless the outcome to the present election as simply a case of time running out and no where for them to hide.....their deficit spending is at a conclusion and they have no phony tax imagery to hide behind but only a confrontation with reality they can no longer avoid.

    Wars causes the recession. Citizen's resources are used to build bombs and ammunition which serves no value after they are used.

    Milkshakes also have no value after they are used. Should we all stop drinking milkshakes? :p

    It looks like Milk Shakes have more value... they can be used for some enjoyment. The other only serves to destroy people and their stuff.

    This would have been a really good post, and your best today. All you would have had to have done was place "Democrat" where you said Republican.

    There is definitely economic value in cleaning the environment of bad people.

    Having forestalled a world wide Depression is no easy feat and a job well done by the participants of the present Congress, the crisis has passed and the new congress will be working from a position of strength and optimism and not the despair left behind by the principles and policies of the past Republican Administration.

    There is precedent against the certainty in predictions prior to the results in American politics and with so much certainty ascribed to this one how can the outcome be anything but Apocalyptic? There is a deep sense of satisfaction in having voted.

    You must have a lot of money to spread around. Here is what you are proud of :

    REPORT: US to spend $200 million per day on Obama's Mumbai visit...

    LINK.

    Yeah, that says "per day"
