Going to have to argue with you there Exxon. The Dems laid the foundations for the mortgage crisis back in the early 90's when they forced lenders to lower lending standards "so eveyone could enjoy home ownership". The Dems also over saw the crash via good old Barney Frank and Criss (I got my loan) Dodd. Don't get me wrong there were plenty of scalawags who rode this horse till it died, but the Dems saddled him up for them.

Prove's, like Hittler, the bigger the lie the more people want to believe in it. I. E. Ronald Reagan.
But It really started the year before in 1987, the last year of Reagans presidency. When Exon's handy work, accidendtly unkownly, triggered the 87 stock market crash. But this time I had nothing to do with it. But it was Reagans policy's and his line of thinking thats brought to where we are today.
If I'm lucky and Eric Holder goes his job, "Cain" he's called in some circles. You'll all here some startliing news comeing out of Salt Lake city, That will be the end result of the 87 crash and people Fucking with Exon. A project I've been working on for 22 years. Which is culimating now, which I've been working night and day for a month on, getting only 3 or 4 hours sleep a night.

[QUOTE=Hunt99]The signs are all there: all their candidates for the Virginia governorship that they've held for 8 years are behind the Republican nominee by a substantial margin. The same thing is true in New Jersey, with the incumbent Democrat governor far behind his GOP challenger. The New York Congressional seat by election was barely held by the Democrats in a district that went for Obama by 20 points in November.
And add to this the unpopularity of the Democratic legislative program - we have the makings of a massive Democrat loss in next year's elections.
Better act fast Democrats, before you return to minority status. See if you can seize control of the health care system to go with government control of the banking and auto industries.

They have just pointed out the obivious. What amazes me is how the Obama administration has totally socialized so many institutions like the auto industry. Telling the secured bond holders they are going to take 10% and like it while giving 53% to the unions who paid nothing. When I was a mere lad and the unions were going on strike against a profitable industry who had no competition our wonderful federal goverment intervened and brokered the deal that we have today. It screwed both the workers with a plan that was not sustainable and the company who was not given a choice. Better for them to have fought it out. The workers would not have gotten as much but neither would have the company bleed themselves to death. I remember an elder telling me that this would be the ruin of the industry and they would be bankrupt in 40 years. This man has passed on. But he was right. The Obama administration has yoked us with a burden so great that we will not get out from underneath it for 25 years. On the other hand the economy starting with Clinton has been built on cheap money without the ability to pay so Obama was right when he stated that the growth was illusionary. He is right. What he is doing now is illusionary too.

Modern day Republicism was founded by Berry Goldwater, in today's world a right leading middle of the road Democrat. Ronald Reagan, a Democrat at the time, 1964, switched party's and joined Goldwater and his crusade to carry that torch. Nixon had his turn, (a much better President history has given him credit for) then Ford a Lame Duck from the start, then Carter. Carter never stood a chance. He was hampered by the stagflation, created by Paul Volker raising intrest rate's to stop inflation. Plus the failed mission to rescue hostage's in Iran. Now it was Ronald Reagan's turn.
Reagan lost complete control of the direction of Republican party. By delagating authority to the people that created today's Republican way of thinking. (I've heard this happend because of the bullet Hinkely put in him, but that's another story) George Bush 41, Dick Chaney, George Bush 43 the list go's on & on.
To build a consensus and get elected, they invited all those bible belt state's, historicly Demoractic since the Civil War and gave them a seat at the table, a Big Voice.

Political debate is a great thing, moreover an essential element of our freedom, as is our pluralistic system for electing national and state representatives. If everyone had the same perspective we would be screwed and would repeat the mistakes of our past faster and more often than we do now.
The problem in my opinion is not in the system, it is in the people "we" chose to represent us. Unfortunately, the most common characteristics found in the people "we" chose are selfishness, self-perpetuation, power and greed. The only purpose their respective constituents serve is to elect them and re-elect them to office. Almost completely lacking in Washington is anyone with the moral fortitude to stand up for the SELF INTERESTS of their respective constituents. Further, very few if any elected officials within the Beltway have ever had a real job further distancing themselves from actually understanding what individual SELF INTERESTS really are (hint: they are a good thing that has made this country the greatest in the history of humankind and will bring it back from its current state despite debilitating, seemingly-insurmountable debts being heaped on future generations) That fault lies squarely at our feet, after all "we" picked them.
The party apparatchiks have long since tossed out the notion of presenting candidates whereby we can vote for quality and substance over party politics. Perhaps we have reached a point where the rank and file will have an opportunity to.
While I am at it. Two other points:
Reagan did not guide or set the Republican party on a path away from Conservatism. The leadership of the GOP and our elected representatives (with the aforementioned characteristics) turned left in the misguided notion that 1) more people will like them, 2) they will get elected or re-elected, and 3) the left will embrace them as sensible, bi-partisans. They were wrong on all three accounts. All they really accomplished was further compromising what little principals they had left and reinforcing the fact that they are really all about advancing themselves and not their constiuents.
In my opinion, the definition of torture is watching political hacks try to destroy the lives of bright, dedicated individuals giving their best to defend the country, for purely political reasons and wrapping it all up in some BS legaleze.
A majority of Americans describe themselves as conservative (small "C") in favor of individual freedom and responsibility, smaller government, lower taxes and less government interference in both personal and business affairs. It sounds like Exon falls into this group. When the GOP comes back to its Conservative (big "C") principals (this does not mean pandering to fundamentalists it means being Conservatives as described above) and sticks to them, they will regain the trust of the American people and will have the opportunity to make significant gains in all elected offices. If they continue to eschew Conservatism, they will continue their losing ways.

I bet his ass is stinging today after taking Reid's strap-on (actually, he probably borrowed one of Nancy's) all night long.
He deserves it, not for finally coming out of the closet and annoucing what we always knew (he's a democat, wow big surprise) but for so many years of lying to his constituents and pretending to be a Republican. His years of seniority shouldn't count for anything because, as he has clearly stated, his dismal senate career has been based on a lie and that he has really only pursued personal gain. He was seeking chairmanship of either appropriations or judiciary, by switching parties, based upon retaining his 28yrs of seniority (oops) He knew that his own expectations for longevity meant if he wanted to reach his personal goals, he would need to change parties. What a great guy and stellar example of the altruism we can find in so many of our elected officials (yes, I am being sarcastic) If you lay down with dogs, you are going to get fleas (and quite possibly fucked)
This dumb ass just scuttled any hope of reelection, he is now a turncoat and a freshman senator, for all intent and purpose. I guess he didn't notice that the Dems in Washington do not believe in honoring agreements (for example subverting the constitution and reams of contract law to give the UAW 55% of Chrysler) He also, if I may point out, reconfirms point #3 of my previous eloquence (no matter what you do as a RINO, the Libs will still hate you)
This sums up the beauty of last night's Democrat gang bang of Specter (from The Hill's Pundit Blog):
"The Senate last night voted to place Specter in junior slots in each of the committees. That it did so by a unanimous voice vote means that Specter, who told the press he would retain his seniority, raised no objection to his own political emasculation."
What the didn't say is that he couldn't speak because the Dems cut his dick off and stuffed it in his mouth.
The only downside I see here is that this will scare Collins and Snow into remaining Republicans instead of jumping ship too.
Ridge is no conservative so I hope he stays in Maryland doing whatever it is he is doing there (more than likely lobbying)
Well, foes of Obama don't seem to be fairing that well so far. Cleaning up the mess is going to take awhile (Madhoff, Blagogevich, Edwards, Bank of America, Citibank, GM Ceo - cya dude! Federal prosecutors being used more aggressively than usual. Wonder why?
The deal with fiat is a good sign. Chrysler and GM both going by the wayside. Good riddance. So sad to see all the big bankers needing to plead with the Treasury. Maybe in the future the "stress test" won't treat them so rudely.
We have health care put into motion. A soon to be 60 seat majority and control of the house. The Democratic Party is an arm of Obama's White House and his success shows no signs of slowing.
There is no leadership in the Republican party. Dick Cheney is reeling and a perpetual negative for his party. Who will step up, Michelle Bachmann, Cornyn, or Jeb Bush? I doubt it. The party of "NO."
Even Palin is preferable but the media won't give her the time of day and her daughter's boyfriend dumped her after she had his baby. Oops.

It probably doesn't matter who is in charge now. We are in for a world of hurt in the coming months and years.
I wish Obama had simply lowered taxes for individuals and businesses. Instead he is pouring money into a worthless cesspool.
However, as Jackson has pointed out, lowering taxes benefits people who are paying taxes. Obama is indebted to people who are not paying taxes I. E. not working and, in some cases, not willing to work.
P.S. Donīt take this the wrong way. The alternative to Obama is a political party filled with fruit loops and weirdos i.e. the religious right.
However, if you think the economic stimulus package we have now is a bullet capable of solving our economic problems you are out of your fucking mind.

The Republicans have no monopoly on stupidity, immorality or being "lying dirty MotherFuckers" as you put it. But while I have never defended Bush's judgement, I have defended the fact that he was principled.
It is a fact that in the days after 9/11 seemingly 84% of the American populace agreed with those principles. After seven years of growth and after our country felt collective pain, on the second Monday in November 2008 that number was. Well let's just say it was lower.
I've never been a conspiracy theorist, but let's just say there is a wide disparity about the garbage that is recycled into the mainstream media's views and allows the idiots in our country to get information in ten-second sound bites.
That being said, I offer the following:
If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given Tony Blair a set of inexpensive and useless (to Tony Blair's UK video formatting) DVDs, when Tony Blair had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?
If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?
I have never supported Obama and that is based on strictly philosophical disagreements on values, economics and double standards. I had an open mind about him and other than calling him an Asshole in a joke before the election I have not attacked him or his party personally except to point out the absolute fucking hypocrisy of everything he stands for.
If left unchecked, he will make the US exactly like Argentina. That would be fine if we had the access to the beautiful, high-quality, low-cost pussy that beautiful Argentina has.
If that happened, I would gain eighty pounds and change my name to Maradona.
Obama has no choice but to double the debt, if he didn't the Argentine's would be flying up here to fuck our women.
We were and are that close to defaulting to the whole fucking world. If he hadn't shored up all those bank's & AIG we would have.

Oh I forgot, Bush was Rep and The Carmel One is a Dem.

This has been making the rounds on the Internet:
[quote]Heidi is the proprietor of a bar. She realizes that virtually all of her customers are unemployed alcoholics and, as such, can no longer afford to patronize her bar. To solve this problem, she comes up with new marketing plan that allows her customers to drink now, but pay later.
She keeps track of the drinks consumed on a ledger (thereby granting the customers loans)
Word gets around about Heidi's "drink now, pay later" marketing strategy and, as a result, increasing numbers of customers flood into Heidi's bar. Soon she has the largest sales volume for any bar in Detroit.
By providing her customers' freedom from immediate payment demands, Heidi gets no resistance when, at regular intervals, she substantially increases her prices for wine and beer, the most consumed beverages. Consequently, Heidi's gross sales volume increases massively.
A young and dynamic vice-president at the local bank recognizes that these customer debts constitute valuable future assets (derivatives) and increases Heidi's borrowing limit. He sees no reason for any undue concern, since he has the debts of the unemployed alcoholics as collateral.
At the bank's corporate headquarters, expert traders transform these customer loans into DRINKBONDS, ALKIBONDS and PUKEBONDS. These securities are then bundled and traded on international security markets. Naive investors don't really understand that the securities being sold to them as AAA secured bonds are really the debts of unemployed alcoholics.
Nevertheless, the bond prices continuously climb, and the securities soon become the hottest-selling items for some of the nation's leading brokerage houses.
One day, even though the bond prices are still climbing, a risk manager at the original local bank decides that the time has come to demand payment on the debts incurred by the drinkers at Heidi's bar. He so informs Heidi.
Heidi then demands payment from her alcoholic patrons, but being unemployed alcoholics they cannot pay back their drinking debts. Since, Heidi cannot fulfill her loan obligations she is forced into bankruptcy. The bar closes and the eleven employees lose their jobs.
Overnight, DRINKBONDS, ALKIBONDS and PUKEBONDS drop in price by 90%. The collapsed bond asset value destroys the banks liquidity and prevents it from issuing new loans, thus freezing credit and economic activity in the community.
The suppliers of Heidi's bar had granted her generous payment extensions and had invested their firms' pension funds in the various BOND securities. They find they are now faced with having to write off her bad debt and with losing over 90% of the presumed value of the bonds. Her wine supplier also claims bankruptcy, closing the doors on a family business that had endured for three generations, her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor, who immediately closes the local plant and lays off 150 workers. The rest is history.[/quote]
The public doesn't know, were just learning what they did to us. The Bush adminstration was crimimnal. They set us back a 100 years if we can ever recover from it.
Democracy can't exist without justice and look what Bush put to the Federal bench. Eric Holder's job is to clean up some of this corruption. He can't get it all, some will sit there for life, but he'll get some of it.
I know what I'm talking about Monger's. I have a vantage point most of you don't. In fact I do this sort of thing for a living.

[QUOTE=Exon123]I want one you bright Fucks to tell me what a "Credit Default Swap" is, or where you buy and sell them and how much do they cost. Or just tell me what a simple plain Drivetive is. How many different types are there, where you get them, how much do they cost.
The President has been in office less that 4 months and people are starting to get on him. All of this is the result of Reagan and his followers deregulating.
Exon[/QUOTE]Exon, It wasn't Reagan and Bush.
"Credit Default Swaps were invented in 1997 by a team working for JPMorgan Chase. They were designed to shift the risk of default to a third party, and were therefore less punitive in terms of regulatory capital.
Credit Default Swaps became largely exempt from regulation by the SEC and the CFTC with the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000, which was also responsible for the Enron loophole. President Clinton signed the bill into Public Law (106-554) on December 21, 2000"
Straight from Wikipedia so it has to be accurate, right?
Maybe one of the conspiracy theorists on the board will accuse Karl Rove of manipulating the entry.
There is also the assumption that if people would have paid their mortgages, as they agreed to do so when they took them out, that the CDS market never would have collapsed. So where does Barney Frank and the girls get their due credit for holding the Republican pussies in Congress hostage by forcing bad loans on all of us?
I offer the following: "They all Suck and sold us out". Except for Ronnie, he was cool.
Exon, I want to go fishing with you someday. In absence of that at least post more stories of your adventures. The political discussion is wearing my ass out. Take care.

Exon[/QUOTE]What, fighting corruption is now what you do "for a living"?
[QUOTE=Sidney]But, ''as you were doing this for a living'', you ignored me! BTW, Bush was the worst President of all time, while the Obomination is gaining rapidly![/QUOTE]Hey Sid,
Has the country ever had a president that you did like?
Or do you simply rank all of them by how bad they were?
Please adivse.
Thanks,
Jackson
[QUOTE=Exon123]...look what Bush put to the Federal bench.[/QUOTE]I told you guys, Exon is a closet Conservative who hates [I]Republicans[/i] only because of some alleged incident in his past wherein he believes he was somehow dissed by what he believes was a Republican judge.
That's it, plain and simple.
If you ever talk to Exon about politics, it takes only a few minutes to realize that he doesn't actually subscribe to any of the underlying tenets espoused by the Democrats (like tripling the national dept) it's only his hatred of said allegedly Republican judge that compels him to proclaim himself as a Democrat.
Thanks,
Jackson
BTW: Exon doesn't have a clue as to the specifics of who President Bush appointed to federal judgeships, he just knows that he hates them all because he just "knows" that they were all Republicans.
Hey Sid,
I can go along with you on Reagan, but Ford was damaged goods from the start. Yes he vetoed spending but was only selected so he could pardon Nixon. After that we got Carter "I only lusted in my heart" - yea that's right up there with "I didn't inhale" - who IMHO was the worst we have had until The Carmel One, but I have faith he will yet make Jimmy look good in compairson!
How did this [blue][Deleted by Admin][/blue] get to be a Federal Judge.

The Clarin had a great comic today, maybe it's a little too late to post but there are still a few hours in the day.
For those of you who didn't see it, it's pretty basic, as there is no dialog. Just the daily piece by Crist, entitled, Guantanamo.
It shows Obama at a podium, his shadow, what looks like a cowboy, would be, right, G W Bush.
All this brings to mind a very old song (depending on your age) by The Who.
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution.
Take a bow for the new revolution.
Smile and grin at the change all around me.
Pick up my guitar and play.
Just like yesterday.
Then I'll get on my knees and pray.
We don't get fooled again.
Don't get fooled again.
No, no!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Meet the new boss.
Same as the old boss
[QUOTE=Sidney]1. Ronald Reagan.[/QUOTE]Reagan?
How could Reagan have been a great president?
Everybody knows that one must have a law degrees and a high IQ to be a great president.
And while I'm at it, don't give me any of that BS about experience either. Everybody knows that education is much more important than experience.
Thanks,
Jackson
