failure option
We are experiencing the worse global recession and economic meltdown in recent history. The stimulus plan may or may not do anything. We must brace for failure.

Obama's Plan Means You Pay Your Fair Share of Taxes
Thank you for putting the concern about taxing people who earn more than $250,000 per year in perspective. Think about this, America, only 1.9 percent of American households earn more than $250,000 per year. What are they crying about? Because they are only 1.9 percent of U.S. households, they are among the elite. If they cannot afford the ...

his best - not good enough?
Sounds like an epithet for his gravestone. McCain with all the power and resources of the Republican Party tried and failed. The economic debacle caused by Bush is responsible for this...

under-estimating Palin
Palin is in a 'learning mode'. Now that she has so much attention everyone in the world knows who she is. She will be in an excellent position for the 2012 election. And if we're still in a deep recession she will be running as President.

A Plan to Bankrupt the World
This is the second time McCain has referred to a plan to freeze federal spending in an effort to balance the budget. Just picture the thousands of things a government spends money on every day. The government spends about $17,000 for each taxpaying household in the USA. Suppose they froze half of that and spent only $8,500 per household. Earlier ...

Depression, Recession, Trickle-across Economics and the Poor
(... the rest of the world is producing more goods more cheaply than we are, so we are finding fewer and fewer jobs for our citizens. Everything else devolves from that.) (From automobiles (Ford), to airplanes (The Wrights), to electronics (Morse & Edison), to computers (Intel &Microsoft), time and time again this nation has been ...

Re: COX the Dumb Lapdog
It's not just Cox, it's the whole Laissez-faire attitude this administration has had for the last eight years. Now we are in the position where, much to our dismay, we have to bail out the financial system. And it is not just the fat cats on Wall street that are getting bailed out here. We are bailing ourselves out as well. If the credit markets ...

McCain's debacle/debate
Hey John, this is your last chance to prove that you are the best presidential candidate. After cancelling - then joining the debate: you had better be better than good. You had better be convincing. Which is a stretch. But, if you fail, you go along with Bush as the worst President in U.S. history and the worst republican candidate to replace ...
