So. Just saw raw footage of McCain talking

could end up costing us.  He says it could cost every household in America $10,000.   Don't know about you, but MY household doesn't have $10,000.   And doesn't foresee having anywhere near that in the immediate future. 

So what do YOU think about this so-called 'bailout'?  Is it worth $10,000 to you? 

I just got the courage to take a peek at my 401K.  It's lost fully 1/4 of its value, and still dropping.  Just as bad as 9/11.  And I still hadn't earned back everything I lost after 9/11, either.  So now the 401K is even deeper in the hole.  If I retired today, I could probably live for a year and a half on what's in there.  Who do they think they're kidding with this "bailout"?  And where the *#D&!  do they think we taxpayers are supposed to get the money to help pay for THEIR mess? 

At this point in my life, a cash-under-the-table sideline and tax-evasion seem like the only way to survive.

So McCain's swipe at Obama's tax plan was something other than straight talk. As a share of the economy, Obama's plan would create an overall tax burden similar to the one that existed in Ronald Reagan's time. It would not choke off job creation; rather, it would slow the growth of the deficit and soften inequality. But the really depressing thing is that McCain himself once knew that. He opposed the Bush tax cuts before he supported them, saying that they would deepen inequality. But now he touts a tax reduction that is larger and more radical than even President Bush proposed, and he slams his opponent for holding the view that he himself held until recently.

who provides campaign funds.  Do you know why lobbyists are making the headlines?  Because they are bribing the politicians of both parties - lobbyists work for private interests (AIPAC) along with the pharmaceutical company ($280.00 for a bottle of pills?  Only in America, folks), oil industry (record profits at your expense) credit card companies and unethical banking procedures (Funny isn't it how Visa wrote the reformed BK bill, making virtually everyone end up in ch 13 (garnishing income, including SS) after raising credit limits and offering transfer balances at 0 percent to everyone with a last name and a roof over their head?  Along with mtgs that were bound to turn into bad loans when house prices dropped which they always do after a bubble.  God, I could go on and on here but I get tired.  The nation is in such trouble.  Serious serious trouble.  There is a huge loan to an unfriendly country (did you watch the Olympics?  did you ever see Bush look more uncomfortable other than during the Stephen Colbert roast during the national press conference.  lol.  

Well I want you to know what fascism.  And I want you to know that those treasury notes are backed up by the taxpayers (you) and real estate including roads and govt buildings and parks.  Have you noticed why Save-Mart Center is owned by savemart and not a community business or the community itself?  There is somethign happening slowly and surely and it is NOT going to benefit middle class america one iota.  You must know that as a poor person, you have no power, no voice.  Elections are rigged and the politicans cease to care whether you like them or not - oh wait, that has already happened. 

THINK ABOUT THIS!!!!  Your 401Ks and investments/assets are what at are stake! 

Fascist governments nationalized key industries and made massive state investments. They also introduced price controls, wage controls and other types of Soviet-style economic planning measures.^[12] Property rights and private initiative were contingent upon service to the state.^[13].^[14] Fascists promoted their ideology as a "third way" between capitalism and Marxian socialism.^[15] Fascists in Germany and Italy claimed that they opposed reactionaries, and that they were actually revolutionary political movements that fused with conservative social values.

Wasn't referring to WMD, as stated in my post.

Saddam had gotten rid of the WMDs, said his son-in-law, quite a few years earlier.  If your theory of invading a country that no longer is a threat, then would you also advise invading Germany since they used to have a Nazi regime?

I just mean in terms of the baby being passed around.  That's what people do with babies.  They share the love. 

Doncha have any babies in your family?

Biden answered each and every question very completely and very eloquently.  They were more like accusations than questions, and the whole thing resembled an ambush more than an interview.  Please WATCH THE VIDEO OF THIS INTERVIEW (link below) and tell me just which question Biden DIDN'T answer.

I wouldn't waste my time being interviewed by this woman, either.

Funny, I don't see a whole lot of "nays" beside the R's in the list.

civil service where my 16yo daughter goes to the barracks for 3-4 months to learn training as if a war was coming.  That is what Hitler used to do to his country.
