[QUOTE=Sidney]But you O lovers are in a state of denial. At this early stage, everything O has done so far is an unmitigated disaster! Get your heads out of the sand and get objective! Believe it or not, ever since October, when it appeared O was going to win, the stock market has been discounting the disaster of O! ''The tape doesn't lie![/QUOTE]I agree with you Sid, but you can't reason with those who are entranced by the hypnotic powers of "the Messiah".
[QUOTE=Miami Bob]PS--Jackson I hate your editing software. It will not permit me to write what I want to write nor edit in the manner I prefer.[/QUOTE][blue]MB,
Here's how to by-pass the text cleanup script: Post some complete gibberish, then edit your post however you wish.
In other words, the text cleanup script is not invoked after editing a post, only after the initial upload.
Thanks,

Every time the Caramel One opens his mouth the market goes down and so does my 401k.
Moved everything into Cash until we hit the bottom, where ever that is. I thought everything was suppose to turn around once the Caramel One took over.
I don't think you can jump start the market or industry by kicking them in the teeth and then expecting them to react favorably. Looks to me like a "The floggings will cease when moral improves" sort of thing.
Just my 2 cents

BTW, you look very familiar. Just like someone I know.
From Big Travel Guy here, the self-appointed "moderate", to the right of Miami Bob, to the left of Jackson, well to the left of Sidney, but still willing to join the "cut and paste" style of Sid!
Here are two recent articles that I think are right on. They are long, and thus, not light reading. The first is from the center (which means well to the right of Obama these days, as there isn't much to the left of him. Soundly critiquing Obamanomics, the second is from the left, soundly critiquing those who seem to hold Herbert Hoover-esque politics as a viable alternative to the mess we're in.
(not sure if the format here is that you can just click on these links, or if you'll need to cut and paste the URL's in your browser)
Enjoy.

President O or any other Presidential candidate for that matter does / did not have a snow balls chance in hell of saving the American People from themselves. The greediest people on the planet, which includes myself. However, unlike most draft-dodging BS politicians, the man's heart is in the right place and for sure was not born with a silver spoon up his ass. Unbelievable, He may have virtues. How can he possibly survive this bullshit. For this old fart, he is my man. All these pill poppen Limbaugh MFers can kiss my lily white ass. Go Obama. Freedom of speech, I love it.
Now I feel better, have a good day everyone.
Like I said all during the campaign, the Messiah has no executive experience and no executive management skills, and thus he is not qualified for the job of being the country's CEO.
The man has never managed so much as a hot dog stand, for Christ's sake.
His lack of managerial experience is beginning to show all over the place and in a plethora of smaller mistakes besides the two that are documented in the Morris piece. However, Obama worshipers may rest assured that the liberal media may be counted on to continue to gloss over these future management blunders.
Stay tuned, there's certainly more to come.
Thanks,
Jackson

Now I feel better, have a good day everyone.[/QUOTE]I love freedom of speech, too. Congatulations on exercising your right to express it.
Since my family and I have actually defended your right to have this freedom, please allow me to retort.
I'm glad Obama's heart is in the right place. So is mine, I just feel he is wrong on almost every count and he has demonstrated that every value I was raised with concerning self reliance, hard work, dedication, patriotism, nationalism and accountability is not held in high esteem by your man.
I have never popped a pill, as you labeled people who aren't of the same political ilk as you. But, I have had sex with several Mothers so I guess the MFer tag sticks.
Limbaugh is an entertainer, that's it. Your party elected and ran Al Franken so who's lacking credibility? Obama wants to spend more time targeting Limbaugh's comments than worrying about the task at hand. More smoke and mirrors; Limbaugh only wants Obama to fail in his evident intent to pay for social programs, that have failed repeatedly, at the expense of earners who drive the economy. If that makes me a "pill poppen (Popping) Limbaugh MFer", then I guess your assessment is correct.
The country I live in is great. The people that I associate with are good, honest people that will bring us out of the crisis facing us and we will be fine.
I'm going to take a pass on kissing your lily white ass at this time. You described yourself as an "Old Fart". I'm sure you and the AARP gang will enjoy greatly from the burden that will be put upon the next generations while you bask in the benefits derived from others. The freedom to speak your mind works both ways.
Since I have that right, Obama does have a silver spoon. It's just that it was a spoon paid by others taxes that got him educated, paid for his law degrees and funded every single "job" as a "Communiy Organizer" that he has held.
Thinking about it now, your comment " President O or any other Presidential candidate for that matter does / did not have a snow balls chance in hell of saving the American People from themselves" may be correct.
"Since my family and I have actually defended your right to have this freedom."
Perhaps I have misunderstood, but according to my DD-214, two bronze stars and think there is a Purple Heart in there somewhere, earned my right to freedom of speech. I do not want this to take on a personal note, but it did hit a nerve.
[QUOTE=Damman]President O or any other Presidential candidate for that matter does / did not have a snow balls chance in hell of saving the American People from themselves. The greediest people on the planet, which includes myself. [/QUOTE]Huh?
There's just too much misinformation in that post to correct at one time, so I'll just start with the notion that Americans are the "greediest people on the planet."
Now, self-criticism is fine when it's deserved. But on this point, nothing could be further from the truth.
Americans are easily the most giving people on the planet. There's no two ways about it: See [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_charitable_countries[/url] and [url]http://www.nowpublic.com/world/americans-are-most-generous-people-planet[/url] and [url]http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-06-25-charitable_N.htm[/url]
This may change if Obama's plan to limit charitable deductions goes through. But, I doubt it will go through.
Americans may have a lot of other despicable qualities. Greed, however, is not one of them. If measured by how much we give to charities, less fortunate people and developing countries, Americans are the least greedy people.
